AFAIK, S6 will have a 16nm Exynos SoC.

Huh? Is that TSMC you mean? Wasn't it Samsung 20nm, the part analyzed by Anandtech recently?

All of you accept any response from David. Good luck. He wanted to throw it there for all of us to comments and defend Intel position.
He is a bearish on Intel.

The Samsung Galaxy S6 is based on the Exynos 7420, which is a CPU that's based on their own 14nm process: http://wccftech.com/samsung-galaxy-s6-spotted-antutu-boasts-exynos-7420-20-mp-rear-camera/

Really though 16 vs 14 does not matter, since implementation is the bigger deal and numbers are just arbitrary naming.

Exynos 7420 gets 1500 points in Single Thread Geekbench, A8X 1800, and Core M 5Y10 2000. Of course the Exynos and A8X are better in multi-thread, the former by quite a lot. It tells me here that Intel 14 and Samsung 14 are the same thing.

I'm not "bearish, I think I am being realistic. I think there's very good reason to believe its negative for a company that puts out $300+ chips with 4.5W power achieve similar performance to competitors $20 chip that has half the board size requirements and 3W power.
