The new Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra passed the test battery of the SPEED TEST, a program by Oficina da Net that tests the firepower of cell phones to define the most powerful models on the market. The recently launched Galaxy S23 Ultra arrived with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, it has 12GB of DDR5 RAM and 256 GB of storage, running Android 13.
Like any device already tested here, the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra went through three benchmark tests consecutively in each of the four applications, 3DMark Wild Life, AnTuTu, GeekBench and CPU Throttling.
Watch on video:
3DMark Wild Life Stress Test
O wild lifewhich tests the graphics power of the device, was where the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra took 1st place in the ranking, doing very well, it was even strange to see the rendering beating the high average of frames, the fluidity was excellent.
AnTuTu Benchmark ?
The second test was the anTuTu, by far the most famous on the internet and which measures the cell phone’s capacity in various activities, from video renderings to QRCode reading. It simulates general usage and ultimately generates a score. In this step, the S23 Ultra crashed 1,179,122 points — 1st position?.
GeekBench ?
In the third test, the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra also left something to be desired. During the benchmark GeekBenchwhich consists of simulating scenarios to analyze the processor’s capacity, Pixel did well here too.
In the first stage of the test, which consists of evaluating the processor’s strongest core, the Galaxy S23 Ultra beat 1,509 points. In the next step, the process evaluated the power of the entire processor package, which reached a score of 4,657. Thus, the device reached a sum of 6,166 points and consolidated the first place in the ranking. It beat the Zenfone 9 that had taken first place in the test.
CPU Throttling ?
It was in CPU Throttling that the problem happened. Beating minimum of 295 thousand points, the S23 Ultra lagged behind the Zenfone 9 in this test. The benchmark evaluates the temperature a lot, which rose 17ºC from the base temperature, after the three consecutive tests.
This application tests for 15 minutes, the constant use of the processor, which consequently will heat up. If the cell phone is able to keep the processor cool, the performance tends to be constant and balanced. Now if the heat is high, the system lowers the frequency of the processor so that it cools down and does not spoil. This is the famous Throttle, and it is this action that, for example, makes your game drop stability and frames, causing those famous crashes.
Completion of the test
It is proven that the Galaxy S23 Ultra is the best performing smartphone in 2023 so far. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 combined with 12GB of DDR5 RAM push the best performance we’ve tested on a smartphone to date.
