Galaxy S24 FE’s Exynos chip is faster than iPhone 16’s A18 in ray tracing

Must read

Samsung used the Exynos 2400e in the Galaxy S24 FE to lower manufacturing costs. The new in-house chip is a slightly downclocked version of the Exynos 2400 used in the Galaxy S24 and the Galaxy S24+, but how does it affect the phone’s performance? It has been found that Samsung hasn’t cut many corners. A test found that the Exynos 2400e beats the iPhone 16 Plus’ A18 chip in ray tracing performance.

Exynos 2400e beats iPhone 16’s A18 chip in ray tracing, isn’t a significant downgrade from Exynos 2400

The Exynos 24ooe’s performance was tested by GSMArena, and it has been revealed that it isn’t a significant downgrade compared to the Exynos 2400 used in the Galaxy S24 and the Galaxy S24+.

In Geekbench 6’s single-core CPU test, the Exynos 2400e scored 2,146  points, while the Galaxy S24+’s Exynos 2400 scored 2,201 points. In the multi-core CPU benchmark, the Exynos 2400e scored 6,711 points, while the Exynos 2400 reached a score of 6,926 points. So, the Exynos 2400e was just 2.5% slower in the single-core test and 3.2% slower in the multi-core test.

In terms of graphics processing, the Exynos 2400e scored 3,870 points in 3DMark’s Wild Life Extreme GPU test at 4K resolution. In comparison, the Galaxy S24+’s Exynos 2400 chip scored 4,365 points, while the Apple iPhone 16 Plus’ A18 chip scored 4,029 points. That makes the Exynos 2400e 12% slower than the Exynos 2400 and 4% slower than the Apple A18.

In 3DMark’s Solar Bay test, which tests a device’s ray tracing performance, the Exynos 2400e scored 8,242 points. The Exynos 2400 scored 8,743 points, while Apple’s A18 scored 6,691 points. That makes the Exynos 2400e around 6% slower than the Exynos 2400 and 23% faster than the Apple A18.

Despite being $150 cheaper than the iPhone 16 Plus, the Galaxy S24e has performed admirably. It is just 4% slower in general GPU benchmarks and over 23% faster in ray tracing. Compared to the Galaxy S24+’s Exynos 2400 chip, the Galaxy S24 FE appears to be less than 5% slower in CPU tests, 12% slower in GPU rasterization tests, and 6% slower in GPU ray tracing tests.

We think most people will not notice any difference in performance between the Galaxy S24 FE and the Galaxy S24/S24+ in day-to-day tasks or gaming. And that is great when someone is spending $350 less and choosing the Galaxy S24 FE over the Galaxy S24+.
