Samsung is smaller, and that usually means cheaper.
Samsung A9 = 96 mm2
TSMC A9 = 104.5 mm2

I just got my 6s the other day, checked and I have a Samsung chip. Any advantage/disadvantage to this?
Let's just be grateful if we get a device with no issues. Who cares which chip really. =)
Mine is working great. ^.^

Advantages = faster single core performance
Disadvantages = runs hotter, lower battery score.
So before the weekend TSMC was bad and Samsung was good after the weekend its the other way arround. Wonder what next week will bring

This post claims that the TSMC chip is significantly better in power consumption and slightly better in performance. Source links are in Spanish unfortunately

6s Plus 128gb Samsung chip.
Do I need to set up my phone as new? Im really disappointed...
I'd give it a shot. I had many issues with my back Ups changing over. Would be very Interesting to see if that helps!

It is pretty funny that now the Samsung chip is massively inferior apparently.
My 6s plus has speaker rattle problem. I think its a software issue as Skype updated their app and it was fixed. i have TSMC chip. before coming to know that its a software issue i talked to apple and they ordered a replacement for me. Now i dont know whether i should go for the replacement or not :/
Is there anything else wrong with it? If not, I wouldn't risk it personally. It's really up to you though on that one.
there is no problem apart from that. I have Apple care+ as well. so i am thinking of skipping the replacement and sticking with the current one.
If you are otherwise happy with you TSMC why not opt to get it repaired instead of replaced if the speaker bit continues? The warranty would cover it.
