Samsung Galaxy S8 shows us in a first performance test how powerful will be the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor that Samsung will use. The image below should show us the performance of a Samsung Galaxy S8 which has the code name SM-G955U, it has a processor with 8 cores and 3.3 GB of RAM, although in reality there will be 4.
Considering that the new Snapdragon 835 chip for the Samsung Galaxy S8 has an 8-core processor from this year, it is clear that in the test we see the results of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 chip, with 8 cores. In the single-core test, the cores perform worse than those of the A10 Fusion chip in the iPhone 7, but the multicore test shows a slight advantage for the Samsung Galaxy S8.
More precisely, between the single-core score of the iPhone 7 and that of the Samsung Galaxy S8 there is a difference of approximately 1500 points in the value of the Apple product. In the multi-core test there is a difference of 400 points in favor of the Samsung Galaxy S8, so its performance should be slightly better than that of the iPhone 7, despite some previous rumors.
Samsung Galaxy S8 and the first performance test
The difference between the performance of the Samsung Galaxy S8 and the iPhone 7 would be 75% in favor of the iPhone 7 in the single-core test and approximately 8% in favor of the Samsung product in the multi-core one. In everyday life, the Samsung Galaxy S8 should be faster than the iPhone 7 in opening applications, photo/video editing and other functions that require high processing power.
We will find out the difference between reality and fiction only after the Samsung Galaxy S8 will be launched and reviews will be made for the new terminal. There is a possibility that in the real world the Samsung Galaxy S8 will not have an advantage over the iPhone 7 in terms of performance, this has also happened in the past with Samsung products.
To be completely honest, I expect the Samsung Galaxy S8 to be weaker than the iPhone 7 in everyday use tests as well, but that's my own opinion. This test for the Samsung Galaxy S8, if it is real, shows us that the performance increase compared to the iPhone 7 is almost non-existent, the single-core score of the iPhone 7 being half of the multi-core score of the Samsung Galaxy S8.
