I've used two flagship phones before, one with Samsung's own Exynos 2100 and the other with Xiaomi's Snapdragon 888. Honestly, the most immediate differences I noticed were in heat and battery life.
With the Exynos model, the back would get noticeably hot during heavy gaming or continuous photo-taking, sometimes feeling warm in my palm after just half an hour. Battery life was decent but nothing special—good for a standard day of use. The Snapdragon 888 version, on the other hand, handled heat much better in the same scenarios, and the battery would often last until midnight. It's not that the Exynos was bad—after all, they're both from the same generation—but in real-world use, you can clearly feel the difference in power efficiency between the two.
If you're into gaming or binge-watching shows, I'd go with the Snapdragon. For everyday tasks and casual photography, the Exynos is fine too, but you’ll need to watch out for throttling issues.
