This is a really good article about ALL the cpu's:

I fully agree with the Exynos ranking. The Mali is one weird gpu, and it seems nuts that the gpu and/or its drivers can't handle 3D like the established norm. This will definitely hurt the sg2 in the short and long term. It will mean devs will have to add specific support for the phone when making their games, just so they'll work on the sg2. And just like the galaxy s before it (sg1 had file size issues), apps will be flooded with 1-star ratings from users demanding support. It's not good for anyone really...

Excellent article. Thanks for sharing. :)
I was having an argument with someone regarding HTC Sensation and OMAP4... Turns out i was right in supporting the new Snapdragon :D.
But it spells bad news for Samsung. They would need Exynos to sell extremely well to get proper dev support in games department. But am sure they will eventually :D
