Smartphone Samsung Galaxy S4 is available in two versions: one based on an eight-core processor Exynos 5 Octa, the other uses the chip Qualcomm Snapdragon Series 600 with four cores.
According to Mr. Sheen, different versions of Galaxy S4 are the result of processors diversification. Obviously, passing Qualcomm orders , Samsung reduces the dependence of uninterrupted production of smartphones from its own production facilities. By the way, this approach was justified: due to the fact that South Korean factories failed to start production of Exynos SoC in a timely manner, the bulk of the first batch of Galaxy S4 devices is based on Snapdragon processor 600.
In this case, Samsung picked up the processors in such a way as to provide a similar experience with various versions, says Shin. The difference in Galaxy S4 hardware should not bother the end user.
