How can I check if the device I'm going to buy comes with snapdragon or exynos? Couldn't find any info on online-shops, and when i went to the store, the woman who was working there had no clue what i was talking about, she gave me spec-sheet for this phone, but there said "Snapdragon 615/Exynos 7580 1.6GHz", that's the only thing I found. Btw it was SM-A510F model
SM-A510F - Got this one - Exynos
I think A5 2015 version is on Snapdragon

This news appears 2 weeks ago, You just need to follow news on Sammobile or gsmarena every two days. Even if you don't see that news, I don't know why you go for the Exynos 5410 octa core one which is not open source and doesn't work properly at all.
Well, you can still return your phone to South Korea if you are not satisfied. Just wait the Snapdragon LTE Advanced one or Galaxy Note 3.

many people would beg to differ..... especially since Perseus kernel is arguably the best since the invention of the wheel.

S4 is an old phone. I saw it today for the price of 16K in online site.
Is it good choice to buy that old phone for 16K?
Please advice
16K in Indian currency
A little high compared to prices on Swappa, but not bad. However, I don't believe you have access to Swappa in India so it's really not a bad deal.
If it is brand new, buy it otherwise not.
Sent from my GT-I9505

I am planning to buy it from flipkart.
They have mentioned one year warranty for phone and six months for accessories.
If you have a warranty, ₹16000 (US$252.23) isn't bad at all. I'd get it, simply because it will be quite useful for several years to come, even with its older specs.

My friend is telling me that zenfone2 is best choice for this price range.
He said, the processor in India is exynos, not snapdragon.
Is exynos not a good processor?
I checked the details. It is octo core. Not eight cores work on the same time.
Please advice.
If the phone being offered is an I9505, then it has a quad-core Snapdragon processor. The I9500 is the one that has the Exynos processor. The I9505 has better custom ROM support, so it will be more likely to get the next version of Android when it's released, even if Samsung will no longer provide updates. So your friend is right, if the S4 being offered is an I9500. So what model number is the S4 you're looking at?

Sir,
This is the model id
Model ID GT-i9500DKYINU
Your friend, as I said, is right. The one thing he probably forgot to add is that the I9500 does not have LTE capability. In India I don't believe the lack of LTE matters at this time, but if traveling abroad, the LTE is a plus.
So after using the Note 3 N9005 for over 13 months its display died and the cost of it is pretty hefty, so I decided to spend 2.5x more and get a Note 4
Anyway, I have an important query, exactly which variant of Note 4 was launched in India officially? I mean is it the Exynos version or the Snapdragon one? Cause I need manufacturer warranty this time.
Secondly, I am obsessed with good kernels and ROMs, and in that regard which variant will be more supportive? I noticed that Exynos models don't get any attention at all in comparison with Qualcomm ones, is it same for Note 4 too?
Thanks in advance.

The model launched in india is SM910G it is snapdragon variant.
This time snapdragon and exynos both have good support, but snapdragon has the upper hand.
You maybe able to flash some Roms made for international variant 910F on your 910G but not all of them. (And you will void your warranty by rooting and flashing kernel as the knox will trip)
Thanks, will try to get the N910F or G then. N910G will have manufacturer warranty, and N910F won't, I understand.
In the current year 2016, most of the high-end Android phones will ship with the Snapdragon 820 or Exynos 8890 found in the S7/S7 Edge variants. Since the Nexus 6P was a late 2015 release (as usual), was it cost factor or inability to produce in its time frame? (In regards to them opting for a Snapdragon 810).

The 6P was shipped with the 810 because the 820 simply wasn't ready yet. The 2016 Nexus will be shipped with the 820, if it has a Qualcomm chip, which it probably will. It has nothing to do with cost, they choose what's available at the time.
Any word on whether the Unlocked version will use the Exynos chip? And release date?
Snapdragon 100%.
