Just noticed that the camera recorder supports 4k 120fps on both chipsets. Considering we don't even have 60fps 4k on the S10 or Note 10 series, that's quite substantial. I can't see anyone using 8K 30fps when you'll have all the bells and whistles at 4k 60 inc HDR, zoom, video effects etc etc. No doubt 8k 30fps will have limited features available just like how 4k 30fps has now. Will be nice if 8k 30 has all the features though. Just can't imagine how much storage space a few minutes of footage would take up!
Actually maybe hold off the imports for a bit...

The gist of it is Qualcomm's practices and the West's stronghold on wanting to 5G everything. This means because both 4G and 5G radios are powered by a dedicated chip as opposed to the more efficient onboard modems on current chips, more power is consumed during data consumption.
How this translates to the new chips remains to be seen but you can bet the bigger batteries and more efficient CPUs/GPUs will offset against the higher radio drain on the Snapdragon chipset.
Essentially in the real world we could see both Exynos 990 and SD865 perform very similarly for battery life this time round.
I will be holding off any purchase (assuming I do upgrade( until some conclusive results are in comparing both.
