Samsung tests Galaxy Fold7 with powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite
The new Samsung Galaxy Fold7 foldable smartphone has been tested in Geekbench and confirmed the use of the flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite processor.
Here's What We Know
The device with the model number SM-F966N has two high-performance cores with a frequency of 4.47 GHz, which indicates a specially overclocked version of the chip - probably Snapdragon for Galaxy.
Despite the powerful hardware, the test results in single-core and multi-core modes are lower than those of the Galaxy S25 series. This indicates that Fold7 is still at the development and testing stage, so the final results may be higher.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 SM-F966N appears on Geekbench with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy SoC.
