Galaxy S24 Plus, S24 Ultra Appear On Geekbench With SD 8 Gen 3 SoC،
Samsung is gearing up to launch the Galaxy S24 series. Like every year, it consists of three models: the vanilla Galaxy S24, the Galaxy S24 Plus and the Galaxy S24 Ultra. Although Smartprix already leaked the first high-quality renders of the phones earlier this year, the Galaxy S24 Plus and Galaxy S24 Ultra appeared on the popular Geekbench 6 benchmarking platform.
Galaxy S24 Plus Geekbench score
According to the Geekbench listing created on December 1, 2023, the Galaxy S24 Plus has the model number SM-S926U. The model that underwent the benchmark test ran Android 14 and had 8 GB of RAM. Additionally, it featured the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, indicating that this was the model Samsung intended to sell in the United States.
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC in the Galaxy S24 Plus appears to have one main core at 3.30 GHz, three cores at 3.15 GHz, two at 2.96 GHz, and two at 2.27 GHz. However, this also appears to be the general specification of the SD 8 Gen 3 SoC and not a “Snapdragon for Galaxy” variant.
With 8 GB of RAM and an SD 8 Gen 3 SoC, the Galaxy S24 Plus scores 1,902 points in single-core and 3,439 points in multi-core. This is considerably lower than other smartphones with the same chipset, including the iQoo 12, which scores significantly higher in single- and multi-core tests, and the OnePlus 12.
Galaxy S24 Ultra Geekbench results
The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra (SM-S928B) also underwent the benchmark test with the same chipset, but with 12 GB of RAM. It scored 2,177 points in the single-core Geekbench test and 6,720 points in the multi-core test. These scores are much more in line with other smartphones equipped with the chipset, raising the question of whether Samsung is throttling the Galaxy S24 Plus's performance due to heat management issues or battery drain.
However, the models listed on Geekbench will come to the United States. For the rest of the world, Samsung will sell the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24 Plus with its in-house Exynos 2400 SoC. The high-end Galaxy S24 Ultra, however, will stick to the SD 8 Gen 3 SoC. Additionally, as the company n has not been able to launch the first models equipped with the new chip, it already has many competitors for the S24 series.
The Galaxy S24 series already has rivals
The iQoo 12 and OnePlus 12 are two examples. Both phones come with SD 8 Gen 3 SoC, multi-camera setups with periscope lenses for higher zoom levels, and a high refresh rate display. While the iQoo 12 will arrive in India on December 12, 2023, the OnPlus 12 will launch globally on January 23 or 24, 2024. While the former is expected to cost around Rs. 9,999. 55,000, the latter could cost around Rs. 55,000. 75,000 in India.
