Got to say I'm a bit disappointed that Samsung sticked with Exynos 7420 for the Galaxy Note 5. Months after the Galaxy S6, bigger chassis and not even a clockspeed bump, seriously?
Can't believe it's the same company that was the first to adopt Cortex A57+A53 almost a year ago and has been at the top of the big.LITTLE game for years. As a Galaxy Note 4 (Exynos 5433) owner I'll wait for the Galaxy Note 6.
The competition is about to launch some impressive SoCs.
Apple A9

Geekbench 3 single-core: 2090 points
Geekbench 3 multi-core: 3569 points
GFXBench T-Rex offscreen: 66 FPS
GFXBench Manhattan offscreen: 30.3 FPS
Huawei Kirin 950

Geekbench 3 mingle-core: 1,909 points
Geekbench 3 multi-core: 6,096 points
LG NUNCLUN 2 (2.1GHz quad-core Cortex A72 + 1.5GHz quad-core Cortex A53 @ TSCM 16nm FInFET)
Geekbench 3 single-core: 1796
Geekbench 3 multi-core: 5392
Same clocks as Exynos 7420 but using the new Cortex A72 cores. Not very impressive advantage but should get better closer to launch.
Exynos 7420
Geekbench 3 single-core: ~1500 points
Geekbench 3 multi-core: ~5400 points
GFXBench T-Rex offscreen: 59.2 FPS
GFXBench Manhattan offscreen: 26 FPS
Apple A8 (iPhone 6+)
Geekbench 3 single-core: ~1630 points
Geekbench 3 multi-core: ~2930 points
GFXBench T-Rex offscreen: ~45 FPS
GFXBench Manhattan offscreen: ~20 FPS
Not a massive improvement from 14nm Apple A9 but enough to put some pressure on Samsung. Looks like a 20-30% CPU and 50% GPU performance increase.
On the plus side, scores for Samsung's future SoC packing Mongoose cores and Mali T880 are really impressive (Galaxy S7?).
Rumoured 2.4GHz CPU clock. Not sure if there's any CPU performance info there, can't read chinese, anyone?
Top notch graphics performance, almost double rumoured Apple A9 @ GFXBench Manhattan offscreen.
GFXBench T-Rex offscreen: 108.9 FPS
GFXBench Manhattan offscreen: 59.4 FPS
