There were examples when the same phone was released with different hardware in different regions, but it’s not mentioned in the article…
E.g. in 2022, Samsung S22 European version had Exynos 2200 SOC, while in other regions it had Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, IIRC there were some performance differences between them.
It’s been a common thing for years from all major phone manufacturers, as far as I know. It was the reason I careful when buying a One Plus 7 Pro back in the day.

Hasn’t Samsung done that for a while?
For S23 there is only one Worldwide version with Snapdragon. They had separate versions since S7.
