Before the update my A55 runs genshin impact smoothly on medium resolution and max settings. And when one ui 7 came it can't even play it for a minute on lowest settings without crashing or lagging. I even got much smoother gameplay on my other device with dimensity7050. I hope samsung will optimize exynos 1470 for gaming or just bring back the old setup without the performance customization, coz games runs fine without it.

Samsungs exynox chip has always have an issue with its chip, thats why some phones like the new S series from 2023 and other Samsungs line up uses Snapdragon or other chip from companies just like you mention, Samsung still in progress in Exynox chip that later in future will comeback again. One U.I 7 still has some bugs and battery drain problems when gaming and i think they will fix it in upcoming One U.I 8?

It's an exynos chip, what do you expect?. Yes it has raw power but it is useless if it has poor optimisations. Exynos chips can't even have a better stability on linux kernels let alone the newest versions of linux kernels. Plus exynos chips tends to overheat because fabrication of the nanometer node is very poorly made. You're better off using a phone with any chipset that was fabricated by TSMC not by Samsung. I'm glad that my samsung galaxy a16 5g was in dimensity 6300 not the exynos 1330.

Ps: my Samsung Galaxy A16 5G on dimensity 6300 have a linux kernel of 5.15.167 on one ui 7 from 5.15.148 on one ui 6.1

The exynos variant have 5.15.153 during on one ui 6.1 and still 5.15.153 on one ui 7.

The one ui 6.1 can even run heavy games on max settings for half an hour without problem. So since they already pull it off I'm just expecting they can do better. I don't think that the processor is the problem i think it's the program.

Yeah, that's the point. One ui 6.1 is the version that is shipped with samsung galaxy a55. So the software is already fined tune by samsung but when updated to one ui 7, they have trouble fine tuning exynos chips. I am not 100 percent sure but whenever there is a major android os update, the linux kernel version will get an update as well, meaning the software optimization on that chipset has been made, for example my samsung galaxy a16 5g on dimensity 6300 came with one ui 6.1 with kernel version 5.15.148, but when updated to one ui 7, the kernel version made a slight bump to 5.15.167 meaning an optimization has implemented. I checked it in geekbench 6 and the results are night and day, well atleast in numerical terms and the real world performance does not compromise. I have seen alot of videos of reviewers updating their phones to one ui 7 and I have noticed that mediatek and snapdragon chips have an incremental bumps on the linux kernel version while the exynos chips don't. Exynos chips even today have to work with the old software frameworks to keep up with their hardware, even if their hardware have an advanced raw power. Both Snapdragon and Mediatek chips have matured software optimizations and can work well with modern software frameworks, but between the two, snapdragon chips are the even mature ones, that is why they are faster on getting better game optimisations and better on emulation games than mediatek. Another factor is thermal control. All chips fabricated by TSMC will have better thermal consistency than the one fabricated by Samsung. Heat can also staggers fps consistency in games.

It is both the processor and the software. That is what I am trying to explain it to you. That is why they gave larger vapor chamber on the a56 and a36, knowing very well their exynos chip and the snapdragon chip that is both fabricated by Samsung's nanometer node will tend to overheat than the ones that are fabricated by TSMC.

I get it, exynos chips got a lot of flaws, but it's already installed on my phone and we can do nothing about it, what developers can change is the software, I'm just letting them know what I'm experiencing so that they can come up with a solution.

Atleast they gave 6 os upgrades and security patches on the current line up of samsung, meaning we get better long term software support than most other phone brands.

I had this problem on my phone (A55 One ui 7) too and deleted the game 

Is anyone playing this game on Oneui 8 now?

Is the game still slow and laggy on the new version of Oneui that realesed for galaxy A55 (Oneui 8)?
