Differences are (1) screen size (2)iplay60 turbo has more memory - 8GB vs 6GB (3) iplay60 has better usb port that includes video - usb 3.1 where the Samsung does not. (4) samsung comes with a pen. (5) Samsung has better screen... not by much.
But one sells for $130ish (Regular Price) and the other sells for $300 on sale... AGAIN... IDENTICAL SPEED, the cheaper tablet has better guts.
I think we're typically comparing Qualcomm to Mediatek, where Qualcomm does benefit from brand identity and being based in the US. Mediatek is known for making affordable chips, and in a place like this, many people avoid devices with Mediatek chips because they're usually low end because we're saving money here.
I think the manufacturer does matter because there is a style to the fabrication and product line development unique to the manufacturer. Some companies don't have access to any process smaller than 7nm. Some companies sacrifice heat for performance to compete with better chips.
You don't think this chip is NOT low end cause it is based on 5nm process... I think it is low end because CHEAP CHINESE Tablets are using the SnapDragon 6 Gen 1 for $130ish. It is IDENTICAL in speed to this CPU.
I don't care who makes who... I also don't care to much about efficiency, I ONLY care about how fast a particular CPU is. You think I am calling out one based on their name... LOL, I am calling them out based on benchmarks.
What you are talking about is jibber jabber... I am talking about benchmarks and the real world prices.
Alldocube Iplay60 mini turbo sells for $130ish it has better CPU, better usb-c port (usb3.1), more RAM with 8GB of RAM... how the F can this be considered a deal?

I mention the iplay60 mini turbo because it is the best value of any tablet right now. Here is an article about alldocube. https://www.gizchina.co
I personally am not a fan of Samsung because of the amount of bloatware and the fact that it is WAY OVER PRICED.
If you are doing your banking, etc... I would recommend doing that on your phone or get a Chromebook.
Your point is?

Happy to hear from others on whether this can handle any slightly heavier applications (Word/Excel) without completely freezing up.

Also, just Google "Samsung Exynos 1380 octa-core processor". All the results say it is a solid mid-range processor. I'm not even claiming this is high-end. I'm saying it's not low-end.
Why are you so mad?
