Today was a very fruitful day when it comes to the next generation Samsung Galaxy S23. We told you this morning that once again, thanks to the indiscretion of the cover manufacturers, We have already been able to confirm the design of the Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23+ and Galaxy S23 Ultra and that, as we previously pointed out, they will retain a design line that is quite similar to that of the previous generation, the current Galaxy S22, which confirms, as we said this morning, an increasingly widespread trend in the market.

Just this morning we were thinking about its interior and some results published on Geekbench come to the rescueWell, they warn us, if not the future, then at least what Samsung is testing for the new generation. And it is doubly interesting because, in addition to anticipating the tests that Samsung is conducting (which, of course, we must remember that they are not definitive, and that the Korean manufacturer can also choose different configurations for some regions and others. Specifically, for example, it is suspected that this configuration will be the one arriving in the United States), also tells us about another of the big unknowns for next year: the configuration of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, another top of the range from Qualcomm , which will lead many of flagships the year 2023.

The performance test result of this prototype is promising as it shows us 1524 in monocore and 4597 points in multi-core. For context, let’s recall that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 inside the Galaxy S22 gets an average score of 1,200/3,200 in single and multi-core tests, while the 8+ Gen 1 usually hovers around 1,300/4,200. If it holds up or even better , if it finally increases, we are talking about a quite relevant jump.

On the other hand, we see in the report that this prototype unit of the basic Galaxy S23 will come 8 gigabytes of RAMthe same amount that we find in the S22 and S22+.

As for the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, we are talking about an octa-core SoC with a special configuration: a high-performance core at 3.36 GHz, four medium-performance cores at 2.80 GHz and three efficient cores at 2.02 GHz. It’s an odd configuration, really, and even more so when we look at some previous leak that he pointed out configuration 1+2+2+3that is, the four middle power would be two Malaku, an evolved version of the Cortex-A715, and two Matterhorn, which is nothing but the original Cortex-A710.

We don’t know more than that, but it’s implied The CPU is accompanied by an Adren0 740 GPUso there is also an evolution in that sense, since Gen 1 has Adreno 730. We don’t know what improvement it represents over its predecessor, so we will have to wait for new leaks or at the latest for the official presentation of this new generation.
