Samsung’s latest Unpacked unfolded yesterday, bringing us the Galaxy Z Flip5 and Z Fold5, alongside two smartwatches and three tablets. We had some early hands-on experiences with all of the new devices, but we also ended up with a couple of review units – one of each foldable. We snapped some photos with the Galaxy Z Fold5, before we got to running some benchmarks on the two handsets and it’s those numbers that we’re here to share now.
Both the Flip and the Fold are equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy – the Samsung-specific version of Qualcomm’s high-end chipset for 2023. The main difference (that meets the eye) in this version of the chip is that it has the X3, 2xA715, 2xA710, and 3xA510 Cortex CPU cores clocked at 3.36GHz, 2.8GHz, 2.8GHz, and 2.0GHz. It’s that prime Cortex-X3 core that sets the CPU apart from the regular variant of the SoC, where it is clocked at 3.2GHz (technically, 3.19GHz).
We have started seeing the 3.36GHz spec on other phones recently (ZTE nubia Z50S Pro and Honor Magic V2, for example), so maybe Samsung’s exclusivity on those special Snapdragons has expired.
