One particular version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 was specifically offered for Galaxy S23 last year, and it is widely believed that this year it will again be available with an addition of Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor. Conversely, the CPU frequency increase that was the main focus in the previous revision is minimised in the graphics part (GPU) this year, which is set to take centre stage.
As we have confirmed the Adreno 750 GPU of Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, running at speed 770 MHz, this is the leading GPU currently used in the smartphone market. The Apple’s iPhone 15 Pro is overwhelmed by the power of the Galaxy S23 Pro’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip, even the iPhone 15 Pro’s A17 Pro is unable to keep up. With the Galaxy S24, consumers like all of us will also be able to enjoy the advanced version at an even higher speed.
The famous Chinese leaker known as Ice Universe has shared information that Adreno 750 chip in variable-mapping will be operated with clock speed of at least 1000 MHz. This is almost 30% more speed than the standard version.
This, therefore, does not mean that the Galaxy S24 will have 30% greater gaming performance, but simply the increased frequency should allow it to still have a bit of edge on its competitors. After all, this is the principle that exists in reality, for the Galaxy devices that have received the small upgrade, “For Galaxy” and the standard Galaxy of the same generation are throttled on purpose, because Samsung has a tremendously worse cooling system on their smartphones than rivals.
Hence, it is yet to be apparent whether this AMD GPU positioned at higher frequency can let the Galaxy S24s be at the top in games. Samsung, which is known for its multiplayer functionality, had thought to target their fans this time with the gamer personal concept.
In spite of that, not all of us will have an opportunity to visit during the festival in France. Samsung plans to have the European version of the Galaxy S24 and S24+ declined using the Exynos 2400 chip with slower duration. As for Snapdragon latest chip, you would buy the Ultra version of Pixel 6 series only if you want to play with it.
