What's the SoC of N7105? Qualcomm or Exynos? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, guys!
We want to buy another Note 2, and we found a good offer on the LTE variant.
Wikipedia reports that the "China 4G" model has a Qualcomm chip. Is it the N7105? We would like to know if it does mosty because we are interested in the Wolfson DAC, but a comprehensive list of the differences between the two models would be appreciated.

I recommended not getting any phone made for mainland China as these phones may have limited rom and play store support.
The non-China gt-n7105 has a Samsung processor per this: http://www.phonemore.com/samsung-galaxy-note-2-lte-gt-n7105-16gb/specs/1051

[Q] SM-T705 is Exynos?

I've been meaning to purchase this tablet so I've been looking at the LTE variant.
I looked it up online on my local Samsung site (Malaysia) and I found out it has the Exynos chipset but with LTE. Are there two LTE variants or it's an error on sites like GSMArena? I also went to a physical store and looked at the retail box, on the back it clearly says "1.9 GHz Quad core + 1.3 GHz Quad core". The model number is SM-T705 which has the Snapdragon chipset according to most sites I go to.
EDIT: I went on the Samsung UK site and even the 4G variant sold there has the Exynos chip.

The T705 is an Exynos 5 SoC with Intel LTE Modem.
There is not currently a Qualcomm based Tab S model on the market, and it's unlikely that a Snapdragon version will be released.
Thanks.
I just bought it, in Bronze.

As far as my understanding goes, all S models are Exynos for now.
Pro line is Snapdragon.
I think only certain US Carriers use the Snapdragon chip Tab S LTE.
this chipset exynos 5420 is 3g in general no 4g lte .this is new 5420 with lte included or lte has dedicated chipset ?
becuase my note 3 n900 exynos 5420 support only 3g freq. but 5420 in this tablet support 4g let
if use another chipset just for lte power consumption is too much more than 3g
as i know, the tab S model use intel chip to support 4g
I have not (yet) read on any Samsung site of any Tab S using Snapdragon. To avoid any future confusion, I suggest to forget the other sites, and go straight to the source themselves (Samsung) .....

I wish the moderators would fix this forum. It lists the Snapdragon 800 SoC in the tech spec details(above the individual forums)

Maybe they are oblivious to it and need to be informed. You could contact them and ask.
Gsmarena is one of these sites
The mods know about the Snapdragon issue. Because Snapdragon is offered in some limited markets they say it should remain. I don't agree as the vast majority of these devices are Exynos. It is misleading but they won't change it.

I could only suggest that they need to " amend " the description, not " omit ". Just add Exynos to it, that's all. Or go the " hard " way and have separate forums same as other devices .... End of confusion
I thought AT&T were getting the snapdragon LTE models. May be wrong though.

I wish there was a US model that had a snapdragon, I've been looking all over for one to no avail.

Samsung.com doesn't list any Qualcomm specs for the T700/T705/T800, says they're all Exynos™ 5 Octa (1.9Ghz Quadcore + 1.3 Ghz Quadcore).
The only possible Tab S with a Snapdragon is the T805.
Does anybody on this forum have a Snapdragon Tab S?

I just ordered the Sprint variant of the Tab S 10.5 (SPHT807TAB) yesterday, and it uses the Snapdragon 800 (MSM8974). Unsure if the other carriers have/will release it.

So the T807 is the Snapdragon model.
How's the performance?

It shipped out today, so I most likely won't know until Monday or Tuesday. But I'd imagine the performance will be just like my Note 3 since it's the same SoC and memory.

Yes, please keep us informed.
I picked up the WIFI version a few days ago after seeing it posted here that BB was discounting the 32GB. I am not noticing any significant lags other than within certain apps that I have also noticed it my Note 8. I would be torn over which to choose, the Snapdragon/Sprint or the 32GB version.
Incidentally, if you chose the the monthly option @ $27 (total $650) , did it also include the cellular plan for 2 years or was that additional? (Update:Never mind, found the answer on the Sprint website)
My Tab S from sprint will be here shortly. I will post back about its performance. I am trying to find out if there is a root method that works for this model.

So far, even with the crap-bloatware Samsung/Sprint like to pile on, and the memory-monster-TouchWiz; this tablet is performing quite well. The Snapdragon definitely makes up for all of the aforementioned annoyances. Certainly more responsive and 'snappy' than the Exynos variant that I've messed around with. I can't wait to see how fast this is going to be running once we have root and custom kernels.
I do find it odd that they went back to the old USB 2.0 port vs the duel 3.0 port though; I get great charge times with my Note 3 using that.

Clarification for Snapdragon and Exynos Variants

hi. i have been looking out for this device as im really interested. made some threads here as well. and here is my findings for the new comers or for people interested but confused about the Chipset variants.
EXYNOS variants.
All Tab S, 10.5 and 8.4 have Exynos variants, Be it Wi-Fi only or 3G only or LTE.
3G variants have Data connectivity but only 3G (duh...) LTE means 4G LTE but NON-US Lte bands.
Exynos, did not have data modem in it and thats why previously we only saw this chipset in the wifi only models for samsung tabs.
now they have introduced an Intel/Broadcomm Modem in this chipset and hence the 2or3Grams difference in weight of 3G and wifi model.
u will find, both 32Gb and 16 Gb variants with this chipset so beware!
SNAPDRAGON variants:
there is NO 16Gb snapdragon variant. simple. untill u get the Sprint US model.
there is NO wifi only model with this chipset. u only get the LTE and US LTE model.
this would be only 32Gb model and it would state that on the box, or it would only be any carrier model
my advise, before buying the tab, if u really interested in getting the Snapdragon one, DO CONFIRM IT FROM THE BOX AND SELLER! be it from some store or from some individual selling it.
hope i helped a little
I have Snapdragon version and it is 16GB.
I bought it in Slovakia (Orange)

[Q] Differences between the Variants of the Tab s 10.5

I own a samsung SM-T805Y and as can be seen below there are a few variants of the device.
805
805C etc
The only information I can find on them is the below strings following the model number. I know what the universal 8420 and the exynos5 stand for. But have not been able to find out what the others stand for.
Are the ROMs interchangeable between these models and if not what would be the result of flashing the 805Y with the 805 ROM
samsung SM-T805 chagallltexx chagalllte universal5420 exynos5
samsung SM-T805C chagallltetdzc chagalllte universal5420 exynos5
samsung SM-T805M chagalllteub chagalllte universal5420 exynos5
samsung SM-T805W chagallltevl chagallltecan universal5420 exynos5
samsung SM-T805Y chagallltezt chagalllte universal5420 exynos5
Anything with a letter after it is region or carrier related.
You can find this info easily with Google or look on sammobile.
My quesation is about the LTE snapdragon version and the wifi exynos versions.. Nobody seems to be talking about it, surely there has to be a better of the two right? Is the snapdragon better or not lol!
thx,

There was a few snapdragon lte ones but all the Tab S are Exynos now. The only ones remaining snapdragons are the carrier branded ones like sprint,att,Verizon and hardly maybe rare an international one. Snapdragon has been dead for a long time now. Snapdragon is better in terms of performance but no development. So... yeah.. hope this helps! Samsung hates dragons! Jk ?
-DUHA
The Snapdragon version is highly overrated. I've used both versions and the Exynos is definitely the better perfomer.
This is because a part from the Verizon 807V there are no snapdragon LTE devices.

Sprint too.
I'm more curious if there are any Roms compatible with the SM-T807T... I'm itching to install a custom ROM... Currently both of my flagship devices(SM-T807T and SM-N915T) have 0 reliable roms or even lollipop so frustrating seeing older devices get official support before flagships

Exynos or Snapdragon for Root, Custom ROMs, etc?

Looking at getting a Note 10+, but I always prefer to root my phones and sometimes install LineageOS. I see that the Exynos variant of the Note 10+ is listed on LineageOS's website as an officially supported device, but it's the Exynos variant.
However upon Googling I'm seeing that the Qualcomm/Snapdragon variant can be rooted too but it requires a paid service? Aside from that are there any other differences between the Exynos and Snapdragon variants that I should be aware of?
Just want to confirm if this is accurate, and it seems like the Exynos variant is probably easier to deal with? I was looking at getting the SM-N975F/DS variant specifically.
Sorry if this is a FAQ, I did try to Google first
