The Galaxy S25 Ultra just got more exciting!

The Galaxy S25 Ultra variant destined for the USA has reappeared in the online benchmark Geekbench, boasting the higher performance figures ever. An increase in scores is nothing unusual, given that synthetic benchmark results usually improve while a device is still in development.

Nevertheless, these new numbers (via @Jukanlosreve) show much promise for the Galaxy S25 Ultra powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite. Once again, they reflect just how impressive Qualcomm's latest chip is on paper.

As you might know, the Galaxy S25 Ultra for the USA, i.e., SM-S938U, was first spotted on Geekbench in September. At that time, it scored 3,069 and 9,080 points in single and multi-core tests at its very highest, but there were also some much lower scores, as you'll see below.

Now, we can find synthetic performance ceilings topping 3,148 and 10,236 points. These numbers are not only impressive on their own but even more so next to the Galaxy S25+ benchmark scores we saw today.

The other recent test from a few hours ago concerned the European S25+ variant, seemingly powered by the unannounced Exynos 2500 chip. The S25+ benchmark revealed single and multi-core scores of around 2360 and 8140 points.

Although it is easy to get excited by these benchmarks — at least for the Snapdragon version — keep in mind that they are not definitive. As we mentioned at the start, benchmark scores for unreleased devices can't always be reliable. Things often improve, and lab tests aren't always designed to push a prototype device to its limits.

For example, in the screenshot below, you can see a few early Galaxy S25 Ultra (SM-S938U) tests that have yielded unusually poor performance figures. Will they reflect the phone's benchmark performance at launch? Certainly not.

Today's benchmark scores are massively improved, but there's no telling what the conditions of those early tests were. All in all, take these early benchmark scores for what they are. They often can be informative but try not to draw definitive conclusions while Samsung is still working on the phone.
