I've been meaning to purchase this tablet so I've been looking at the LTE variant.
I looked it up online on my local Samsung site (Malaysia) and I found out it has the Exynos chipset but with LTE. Are there two LTE variants or it's an error on sites like GSMArena? I also went to a physical store and looked at the retail box, on the back it clearly says "1.9 GHz Quad core + 1.3 GHz Quad core". The model number is SM-T705 which has the Snapdragon chipset according to most sites I go to.
EDIT: I went on the Samsung UK site and even the 4G variant sold there has the Exynos chip.

The T705 is an Exynos 5 SoC with Intel LTE Modem.
There is not currently a Qualcomm based Tab S model on the market, and it's unlikely that a Snapdragon version will be released.
Thanks.
I just bought it, in Bronze.
Hello, I just bought a Tab S 10.5 LTE version. I found out only now that the CPU varies between models, so now I wonder, will mine come with a Snapdragon or an Exynos?
It wasn't written on the description.
Use an app called cpuz to find out what chipset you have and everything about your device.
Yeah I will. But the thing is it will arrive in 3-4 days so the doubt is strong
I was just wondering whether 100% of LTE versions have the snapdragon.

If you bought LTE version, it will be snapdragon 100%. Exynos doesnt have LTE support.
Snapdragons is exclusive to u.s carriers

wrong, here in Sweden both WiFi and LTE uses Exynos 5420, with LTE support thanks to the Intel LTE chip.

All right thanks. That's a bummer :|
From what I've read the CDMA US carriers (vzw + Sprint) have snapdragons, the others have exynos.

I recently got a Samsung Galaxy Tab S, the SM-T705 model. It's a 16GB Titanium Bronze 4G LTE model, but when I was looking at the hardware specs, I noticed - it's not a Snapdragon. It's Exynos5420! I hit up Wikipedia and other well known sources and it says "The T705 uses Snapdragon 800 series chipset". That's false, at least for my device.
So, I'm thinking that Samsung wanted to use Snapdragon for their Tab S LTE devices, but ran into issues with various things and switched to their own chipset and modem implementation. I always thought Samsung used another chipset for 4G LTE devices, because they couldn't get it working with their own.
Is my T705 a newer version or something? I noticed in /proc/cpuinfo it says "Hardware: Universal5420 Revision: A" ... that would mean it's been through 10 hardware revisions (A in hex is 10 in decimal, AFAIK)
Samsung Exynos doesn't have LTE support. So they used to have Snapdragon with built in LTE, but now developed a solution for their Exynos with an accompanying chip for that.
I believe the ones with 32 GB internal memory are the snapdragon versions. I got a T805 16 GB and its Exynos, and I am disappointed because I cannot play 4k video like my Snapdragon Note 3.
The only snapdragon variants are the two US CDMA models--- SM-T807V and SM-T807P for Verizon and Sprint respectively.
Yes if you can connect to LTE then your cpu is snapdragon.
I would say incorrect here, because my device has LTE and its clocks match the Exynos WiFi version. So I am led to believe it was just a doll of the dice. It plays 10bit 720p MKVs fine, handy when i want to watch anime away from my desktop.
Mine is LTE capable with Exynos.

Incorrect
AT&T LTE TAB S is not Snapdragon either.
My T705 LTE is exynos as well (unfortunately). Samsung uses an Intel chip set to do both 2g,3g and 4g and disables the mobile support in the exynos. The Intel chip does not cope very well with 3g/4g handover.
SM T705 LTE snapdragon here...
How do I find out what processor my tab is.

Use an app called cpuz. It should tell you if you have snapdragon or not.

Download cpu-z, cpu identifier, or any benchmarking app
SM-T705M here, it's an Exynos that has 4G, now how cool is that?
Enviado do meu Galaxy Tab S
Same here
My t705 is an exynos with sim card slot. However it has a problem. It never recognizes the sim. I've tried another Samsung based rom but it still does not work. Anyone experience this?
Is the sim a nano sim in an micro adapter maybe? I had this issue with mine. It's well fussy about alignment.
Just make sure the SIm is clean and you may want to check to ensure no loose onjects got into the SIM Card slot. If you are using custom firmware, make sure you use one for T705. Wifi only firmware doesnt have the drivers for the LTE chip.

Where did you buy it ? I mean with Snapdragon 2.3 ? Thanks, Mike
SM-T705 is Exynos edition with LTE support and capable of playback 4K video without single issue.
hi. i have been looking out for this device as im really interested. made some threads here as well. and here is my findings for the new comers or for people interested but confused about the Chipset variants.
EXYNOS variants.
All Tab S, 10.5 and 8.4 have Exynos variants, Be it Wi-Fi only or 3G only or LTE.
3G variants have Data connectivity but only 3G (duh...) LTE means 4G LTE but NON-US Lte bands.
Exynos, did not have data modem in it and thats why previously we only saw this chipset in the wifi only models for samsung tabs.
now they have introduced an Intel/Broadcomm Modem in this chipset and hence the 2or3Grams difference in weight of 3G and wifi model.
u will find, both 32Gb and 16 Gb variants with this chipset so beware!
SNAPDRAGON variants:
there is NO 16Gb snapdragon variant. simple. untill u get the Sprint US model.
there is NO wifi only model with this chipset. u only get the LTE and US LTE model.
this would be only 32Gb model and it would state that on the box, or it would only be any carrier model
my advise, before buying the tab, if u really interested in getting the Snapdragon one, DO CONFIRM IT FROM THE BOX AND SELLER! be it from some store or from some individual selling it.
hope i helped a little
I have Snapdragon version and it is 16GB.
I bought it in Slovakia (Orange)
I have been looking but haven't found the answer, sorry if I missed it. I'm pretty sure that my SM-T320 version of Tab Pro has Exynos SOC instead of Snapdragon. I bought it from Hong Kong during a business trip. My question is, that are there versions with Exynos and Snapdragon under the same model name? Cyanogenmod and most of all other custom ROMS are for Snapdragon version? Thanks in advance.

Used CPU-Z. I was wrong, it has Snapdragon 800 inside. Sorry for possible confusion.
