FULL STORY ====================================================================== Apples iPhone chipsets are almost always the most powerful smartphone chipsets available, scoring significantly higher than Android rivals in benchmarks. However, things could be different this year or at least early next year, as thats when were expecting the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra to launch with a new benchmark leak suggesting it could have Apple beat. A Geekbench result for the phone was shared by leaker @UniverseIce on X, and it achieved a single-core score of 3,011 and a multi-core result of 9,706. To put that in perspective, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra has an average single-core score of 2,142 and an average multi-core score of 6,693. So this would make for a huge upgrade on the current model. Not only that, it would also likely outperform the A18 Pro chipset in the iPhone 16 Pro Max , at least for multi-core results.

Now, there are a few things to bear in mind here. First of all, this is just one benchmark, and an early one at that, so its very possible that it wont end up being representative of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultras actual performance. The power of Snapdragon Plus, this is a model with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset, and its possible that in some regions the S25 Ultra will get an Exynos chipset instead. Thats quite likely for some models in the Samsung Galaxy S25 line anyway, based on past form. On the other hand, many other Android phones will probably also have a Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset, so it could be that quite a few upcoming Android phones can rival or beat the iPhone 16 Pro Maxs performance. We should have a clearer idea soon, as the likes of the OnePlus 13 and Xiaomi 15 will probably be equipped with this chipset, and those phones are likely to land before the end of the year.
