Earlier this month, the Galaxy S25+ was spotted on Geekbench with the Exynos 2500 chipset, sparking debates over whether the series would offer region-specific processors. However, the international Galaxy S25 listing suggests that Snapdragon could be the dominant choice this time around.
The Geekbench scores for the Galaxy S25 prototype stood at 2,986 in single-core and 9,355 in multi-core performance. While these results are slightly lower than other devices featuring the Snapdragon 8 Elite, it’s worth noting that this could be an early-stage unit, with the retail version likely to deliver improved performance. The device is expected to launch with Android 15 and 12GB of RAM.
