Users of Galaxy smartphones are not able to see the other person’s video feed. Even third-party applications are affected, with videos failing to play properly.

In a recent development, Roland Quandt revealed the Galaxy S25 Ultra uses Snapdragon 8 Elite with 12GB RAM in Europe. The latest input aligns with the recent Geekbench listing that teased the upcoming SoC with 4.47GHz frequency.
The S25 Ultra could debut Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy across European countries. The chip that appeared on Geekbench had a higher CPU frequency than the US model. However, there was no massive difference in single-core performance.

The handset was possibly equipping Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 for Galaxy. It had two cores clocked at 4.47GHz and six cores clocked at 3.53GHz. The scores are 3011 points and 9706 points in single-core and multi-core tests, respectively.
There were rumors that the South Korean tech giant would use Exynos chipset in certain regions. However, the yield issues seemingly becoming true as we’ve seen no signs of an Exynos 2500 processor in the recent past.
It was also reported that the company could replace Exynos with a flagship MediaTek chip. Nevertheless, the MediaTek SoC is being used in the recently launched Galaxy Tab S10 Plus and Tab S10 Ultra internationally.
