Samsung-exclusive Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 has low benchmark scores on Galaxy S23
Samsung Galaxy S23 series phones are said to come with an exclusive Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor. Since the chipset is made for Samsung, its performance was expected to be better than the usual Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor but unfortunately, it has low benchmark scores on Galaxy S23 compared to other phones.
A very well-known tipster named Ice Universe has recently shared that none of the Samsung Galaxy S23 series phones found on Geekbench has a multi-core score of more than 5,000. It is not a good sign as various other phones using the normal Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor have higher scores.

The tipster has further shared the multi-core performance of the ordinary version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset of other brands. These results show that they can easily reach more than 5,100 scores on Geekbench.

The latest flagship phone of Samsung’s rival Xiaomi, which is built with the usual Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip, has the highest 5266 multi-core scores on Geekbench. Whereas, the scores of the Samsung Galaxy S23 series with its exclusive Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset are around 4,600 in each test.
Explaining the problem, Ice said that Galaxy S23 series has shrunk the heatsink as a result of cost reduction, which caused the phone to run hot and hinder performance. Whatever the problem is, if the Galaxy S23 series can’t perform well, then the exclusive chipset is meaningless.

The US variant of Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 will be equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor. There were reports that Samsung may expand the Exynos chipset to its foldable lineup, which doesn’t seem to be happening, at least in the United States.
Recently, Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 US variant was spotted on Geekbench with Snapdragon chip. It isn’t surprising as the company is following its conventional chipset strategy. We expect that it will be the same chipset used in the Galaxy S24 Ultra, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy.
The Flip 6 smartphone scored 15084 points on Geekbench’s GPU test. Due to its foldable form factor, the device may miss a Galaxy S24-like larger cooling technology. Still, its impressive 15000+ points in the GPU test indicates that Samsung has greatly optimized the software.
The company still has three months remaining in the launch event. More performance improvements will likely be achieved before the Unpacked. The South Korean tech giant will likely unveil the next-gen foldable phones in mid-July.
This year, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra would join the standard Galaxy Z Fold 6 and the Galaxy Z Flip 6. In addition, an affordable variant of Fan Edition branding is also in development. However, the cheaper foldable would miss some pro-grade specs to maintain the price.

Google‘s Pixel 9 series is ready to introduce a significant upgrade with emergency satellite connectivity and new Samsung modem. This series aims to solve the persistent connectivity problems seen in previous Pixel models.
According to the information via AndroidAuthority, Samsung Modem 5400 will be integrated with Tensor G4 chips for the Pixel 9 series to bring significant improvements in terms of speed, power efficiency, and stability
The Pixel 9’s modem will support 5G non-terrestrial networks (NTN), which means it will enable satellite-based communication. This is particularly important for emergencies where standard network coverage is unavailable.
Moreover, this innovative feature is not exclusive to the Pixel 9. The next-generation Pixel Fold and a 5G tablet, currently under development, will also be equipped with the same modem.
One of the most notable features of this upgrade is the ability to connect with emergency services via satellite, which is crucial for users in areas without cellular coverage. To facilitate this, Google has implemented a system that guides users through a set of questions, allowing for quick communication with emergency responders. For example,
- What happened?
- [Are you/Are they/Is everyone] breathing?
- In total, how many people are [missing/trapped]?
- What best describes your situation?
- What is on fire?
- Are there weapons involved?
Although the release details for the 5G tablet are still unclear, the Pixel 9 series is expected to lead the way in mobile communication technology, ensuring users can remain connected in any location.
