How do we get Smiggles removed from Android threads? I mean if Dolby is banned from Apple.
Whether you’re a Samsung fan or an impartial Android observer, we can all agree that Samsung’s Exynos chipsets have had a rocky few years. The Galaxy S23 skipped Exynos entirely due to inconsistent performance, overheating, and poor efficiency, while the Galaxy S25 also sidelined it — likely influenced by Qualcomm’s major leap with the Snapdragon 8 Elite, alongside reported low yields from Samsung’s 3nm process.
The Exynos 2500 eventually surfaced in last year’s Z Flip 7, but that wasn’t a mainstream showing. But now that we have the Galaxy S26 series, complete with Exynos 2600, Samsung thinks its custom processor is ready to compete with the best in the business once more.
The most important question is, has Samsung solved the overheating issues? A look at benchmarks suggested Exynos might be slightly warmer, but I tested a handful of popular Android games to really find out: Asphalt Legends, Genshin Impact, and CoD Mobile. While I don’t have a Snapdragon Galaxy S26 for a direct comparison, I did grab the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5-equipped Xiaomi 17 Ultra for comparison points.
And the results? They aren’t pretty.
Yeah it does seem to be the case. But oh you go and say Apple music isn't that great and bam banned from the Apple thread.Mods aren't partial to Android unlikely to happen

Samsung still hasn't fixed Exynos overheating issues, and it's ruining my Galaxy S26

I’m just sharing my experience setting up an S26 Plus. No need to get triggered.
Sure sure, as usual your everyday non apple experience is terrible. It's like you've got a script you follow.I’m just sharing my experience setting up an S26 Plus. No need to get triggered.
Have you read the first TAL review?Gents/Ladies,
Do you think this is a good deal. I am contemplating getting one since it has been years not using a flagship. Is it advisable to get a "Grey Import"?

Yes I have. I was particularly trying to check if there is a better deal (cost-wise) somewhere that someone might know about. Otherwise I have checked on Capitec and FNB and the prices are extremely high for my pocket.Have you read the first TAL review?
