Tipster says the Galaxy S21 Ultra and Galaxy S21 will use two different chipsets
The tipster said back in June that Samsung was internally debating the use of the Snapdragon 865 chipset on the Galaxy S21 series because it is bound to drop in price sharply allowing Samsung to offer the phones at a cheap price. Or, it could keep the price the same or even lower it a tad and still make some serious coin on the series. But consumers may not be thrilled buying a 2021 phone that uses a 2020 chip. Another way that Sammy is looking to keep down the price of the series is to use the standard old school 60Hz refresh rate on the Galaxy S21 model.
Thanks to the global pandemic, economies all over the world are trying to recover and now might not be the time to launch a very expensive phone. In some countries, including the U.S., consumers might have to decide whether to spend $50-60 a month on an expensive handset or pay for some of the essentials like food and medicines. Despite this, one possibility that Samsung apparently has put the kibosh on is to use the Exynos 1000 chipset on all three phones.
We almost forgot to mention that Mauri QHD says that Samsung is thinking about getting rid of the Exynos name and replacing it with a new moniker.
