Similar to the Galaxy S23, Samsung would use an exclusive Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy SoC for the Galaxy S24 flagships. Meanwhile, the benchmark scores of vanilla 8 Gen 3 reportedly revealed a single-core score of 1,930 and a multi-core score of 6,236, surpassing Apple’s A16 Bionic.

“Alleged 8 Gen 3 chip has 29% increase in single-core performance and 20% in multi-core.”

It’s worth mentioning that the Android devices powered by Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 secured average scores of 1,491 for single-core and 5,164 for multi-core. If the leaked benchmark results are true, it’s going to be a great year for Android smartphones launching with 8 Gen 3.

Besides, Qualcomm’s next Snapdragon processor is rumored to bring a unique 1+5+2 core configuration, dropping one more efficiency core from its predecessor’s 1+4+3 setting. Still, it’s likely that it would be 20% more power-efficient than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, thanks to TSMC’s N4P process node.

Since we are about 10 months away from the tentative launch of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, it’s not fair to blindly believe this rumor. The company may change its plan anytime and make amendments until the finalization of the chipset. Therefore, stay connected for more input.
