I know it says 5G on the box, is this the Snapdragon or Exynos version? afaik, the Exynos version does not have 5G antennas.

Perhaps show a CPU-Z screenshot?

It wont. The main screen will tell you if it has an Exynos 990, or a Snapdragon 865 SOC.

If it has Exynos, it is not 5G :p

Exynos on the whole is junk... Don't know why Samsung does that, just build a Snapdragon version of the high-end devices. Keep the exynos silicon for the mid and lower range devices.

I don't see any hassles with it, 7 to 8 hrs SoT 3 odd days between charges... see screengrab below, nothing wrong with that. and it supports 5G see other screengrab showing 5G option, my wife S10 only shows LTE (no 5G)

Oh, cool. In this case, yes, it is 5G. Who knew :D

I had the S21 Ultra (exy) about 3 months ago, definitely had 5G, played around with it at VodaWorld testing download speeds etc.

Mileage will obviously vary, and the argument is probably moot since it's difficult getting the SD version in South Africa, but the SD one consistently and reliably outperforms the Exynos version, which again begs the question: "Why, Samsung, why?"

Those figures are impressive though.

Actually in some previous models the Exy versions have outperformed the Snapdragon ones... Comes down to money, profits, R&D, licensing commitments etc.
