You will see over the course of the next few days how the 2100 chip is still inferior to the snapdragon despite Samsung's bold claim and erm well lies.

No, you've not explained the reasons for the delay. Noone needed to wait until the embargo lifted to start testing/reviewing. That's why plenty of places had reviews uploaded as soon as the embargo ended.
So again, what's the delay in these 'comparisons' being uploaded? And why have you had access to them before anyone else?

@Anonymous User @Pugs1957: I understand that you're both passionate about your points of view, however please remain respectful of one another, as the conversation seems to be derailing right now.

@Anonymous User can I just ask you how old you are ? It is an honest question.
With regards to your opinion, then you are entitled. However you have based you whole argument on here, upon some tests that will be apparently released on youtube in the next couple of days.
Personally I am an engineer, with a level head, and of the age of 48, so I have lived a bit... had a few phones in my time, and even worked for Nokia for 15 years during their boom period in the late 90s, early 2000s. Therefore I also know a bit about phone design, reliability, and testing.
I only make judgements on facts. If you have some facts to share then I am 'all ears' but until now you have posted nothing factual. Every day since I pre-ordered my phone, I have been google searching for 'Hands on tests', and reviews for the S21 Ultra. Each day there are new tests and new reviews.
To this point as of today, only positive reviews for the S21 Ultra. Perhaps there may still be a little bit of disparity between the Exynos 2100 and SD888, but it seems this gap has closed considerably, since the previous S20 ultra release last year. Recent 'factual tests' are showing a similar CPU performance, with the SD888 having the edge on the graphics side... but not by a massive amount.
I will keep eyes out for the reviews that you mention on youtube. If these do in fact show a massive difference in performance then you can hold bragging rights over everyone you have mentioned this to on here.
p.s. If you really have such a hatred for Samsung there there is an easy solution. Just don't buy their phones !!!
coming onto a public forum with your BOYCOTT message is not going to make you many friends here.

@Anonymous User looking back at your message history, I see your reasons for having issues for Samsung. It does seem that you have had a bad experience with your Note 20 within 4 months of purchase, and I am sorry to read that you haven't managed to get your problems resolved by either Samsung support or EE.
However, this experience seems to be a fairly isolated case, and you should not let these experiences cloud your overall judgement of Samsung as a brand, or the next release of phone. It seems like you are doing your best to send a message to all Samsung owners to avoid the brand, rather than to accept your issues and try and resolve them. Currently the world is a tough place, as you mention you are a key worker (as I am as well). I am sure that the efficiency in all businesses is suffering at the moment, and Samsung included in that also.
Don't get me wrong, I sympathise if you have had a bad experience in resolving your problems with your Note 20. Personally I have owned more than half dozen Samsung phones over the last decade and I have probably been very lucky not to have had a bad experience (yet) with the hardware that has been sold to me.
Good luck in getting your Note20 problems resolved. I hope that the support come through for you and fix your Note 20 so that you can have less worries being away from home and out of contact.
Kind Regards

Not really sure what the point of that video is. As they pointed out we already know the snapdragon s21 is overall faster due to it's GPU. There's no reason to expect that would change over a prolonged repetition of the test. And there's insufficient information/detail to conclusively show the exynos is more likely to throttle in real world usage. Were both phones running the same software versions? Was there any difference in apps running in the backgrounds? Were both tests conducted at the same time in a controlled environment?
You can find videos on youtube showing SD888 equipped phones (Mi 11) thermally throttling far earlier than an Exynos S21. Does that make the SD888 inferior?
