#Exynos Snapdragon

It is said that the flagship Samsung Galaxy S23 which will most likely be released next year January will be powered only by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset (SM8550) versus the setup of the S22 which has 70% from Qualcomm and 30% Exynos.

Based on the present setup of Galaxy S22, 70% of the shipment is made from Qualcomm while the rest of the 30% is from Samsung’s own Exynos, which is mostly distributed in Europe.

A security issue which allows malicious applications gain complete access to a device's RAM has been found on Android devices carrying Samsung's Exynos 4210 or 4412 processors. The good news is another XDA member, "Chainfire", has released an APK called ExynosAbuse, that will root an Exynos-based device and patch the vulnerability.
