If it is better than Snapdragon 600 !@#$%#@!

India does get the i9505. All of Africa, most of Asia, and some of Europe get the Exynos model, but no LTE. Only Snapdragon models get LTE.

@Hemlocks Seems your piece of information is incorrect, head to Gsmarena. They have just posted the list of which country is getting which model and India is indeed getting the Exynos model. :) And most of the Europe is getting i9505 because they have LTE networks esatablished or about to be established. Some lucky countries are going to get both of them.

That's what I said, and that's exactly where the info came from.

Screw the A15, anyway. There's a reason why Apple and Qualcomm dissed the A15: The power consumption isn't worth the power, and the Big.little is just a complex Band Aid.

Apple and Qualcomm cannot build the A15 that's why, give it to Samsung for pushing the envelope and providing bleeding edge technology to people. If I want to buy a Core i7, I don't want it to be adulterated with last gen Core 2 duo/quad instruction sets. I want the real deal with all the performance it can provide.

I found that dosent make sense.

I just confirmed that GS4 will be released 26th of April in Korea and it will have EXYNOS OCTA WITH HEXA-BAND LTE which covers all countries LTE Bands TD-LTE / FD-LTE

Then why the f**k is snapdragon version coming to Australia??

Because mass production of the octa doesn't start till sometime in q2 Whichi they just wont have enough chips to meet demand for the s4...I too was hoping for the octa but since seeing the 600 benchmarks on s4 am no longer bothered...as long as the phone is fluid I don't mid which chips under there... Only wanted ovta core just to say I have it lol

I feel sorry for people who are against snapdragon.....dont know that Octa will heat up their hands....Octa fans - believe engineers....dont believe marketing people...snapdragon is better in power and also a power house performer

Dude seriously what's with the crapdragon hate? Just because they screwed up with the Snapdragon S3 doesn't mean their chips actually suck. And there's a reason why most of the manufacturers use their chips. And the qualcomm s600 really is a beast. Peace.
