Android - How can I check which CPU chipset do I have?
First you'll need to find your device's Model Number.
You can find this in Settings > About Device, under the field Model Number.
It may look something like: SM-G930F.
If your device is in a state where you cannot navigate to Settings > About Device, please refer to the bottom of my post for alternative methods to lookup your model number.
Once you've found your model number, you can look up its chipset in my source, or in the tables below:

If your device is in a state where you can't get as far as Settings > About Device, then you can resort instead to rebooting into recovery mode or into ODIN mode.
Recovery mode displays the model number SM-G930F like so:
Android Recovery

samsung/heroltexx/herolte
6.0.1/MMB29K/G930FXXU1BPHJ
user/release-keys
And ODIN mode displays the model number SM-G930F like so:
ODIN MODE
Download speed: fast
Product name: SM-G930F
Current binary: Samsung official
System status: official
FRP lock: ON
Secure download: enabled
Warranty void: 0 (0x0000)
RP SWREV: B:1 K:0 S:0
The U.S. variant of the mobile phone is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor, while Samsung's own Exynos 8 processor powers the international iteration of the phone.
