Details of Samsung's next-gen flagship, the Galaxy S23 series, have leaked over the past weeks. The vanilla Galaxy S23 now appears to have made the first trip of any phone in the series to Geekbench, revealing some important details of the flagship and its SoC.
The leaked Geekbench listing shows the Galaxy S23—bearing the model number "SM-S911U"—with 8 GB of RAM as is standard with Samsung's premium phones. The phone looks to be powered by Qualcomm's next-gen flagship chipset, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. That chipset is listed with the motherboard "kalama", and a tri-cluster core configuration: three cores clocked at 2.02 GHz, four cores clocked at 2.80 GHz, and one prime core—likely the Cortex X3—clocked at 3.36 GHz. The page also confirms the presence of the Adreno 740 on the GPU end.
The phone itself is listed with a single-core score of 1524, and a multi-core score of 4597. Compared to the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 which—going by our in-house tests—delivers median scores of 1322 and 4179 on those two tests respectively, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 looks to offer about a 10% improvement in CPU performance. Not bad, especially for what's likely a prototype unit.
It should be pointed out that this Geekbench listing runs contrary to prior leaks on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 that claimed it would feature a four-cluster architecture. As such, there's a chance it could be spoofed. There's a possibility, too, that Geekbench fails to recognize a core cluster for some reason. Either way, you'd do well to take this all with a pinch of salt.
