Although Qualcomm has previously revealed that the Galaxy S23 series will use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, when the processor was officially released, Samsung has not been named with brands such as Xiaomi, OPPO and Sony. There are now rumors that the Galaxy S23 uses the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, but it could be an overclocked boosted version.
SD8G2 high frequency version
A few days ago, the whistleblower @IceUniverse once said that the European version of the Galaxy S23 series will be equipped with an exclusive high-frequency version of Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, but the GSMArena website believes that this arrangement will probably be global. It was revealed that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 high-frequency version, the super-large core clock speed will be increased from 3.2GHz to 3.36GHz, and the graphics processor will also be accelerated from 680MHz to 719MHz.
Performance is further improved
In the past, Qualcomm also tried to launch a high-frequency version of the flagship processor in the AC version name, for example, the Snapdragon 855 core numbered SM8150 is 2.84GHz, and the SM8150-AC, which is the Snapdragon 855+ , is upgraded to 2.96GHz. Qualcomm officially refers to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor and image processor, which are respectively 35% and 25% faster than Gen 1. If Samsung wins the high-frequency version , the performance gap will be even greater.
