What chip will your Galaxy S7 or S7 Edge have?
Samsung's new Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge smartphones will sport either the company's homegrown Exynos or Qualcomm's Snapdragon processor, depending on where you buy it. What's the difference between the chips, and which one will your Galaxy model have?
If you're in the U.S., it'll be a Qualcomm Snapdragon chip, a Samsung spokesman said, without revealing further details. It's almost an open secret that the chip will be the Snapdragon 820, designed for premium handsets.
Countries in Europe and Asia will likely get models with the Exynos chip, possibly the Exynos 8 Octa 8890, which was announced by Samsung late last year.
The new smartphones will ship on March 11, and initially be available through carriers. Samsung said it will not sell an unlocked version of the phone, though a spokesman acknowledged some unlocked handsets could be available in the grey market.
