A 12 GB variant of the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra has been spotted on Geekbench where it produced mixed results. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2-powered 12 GB Galaxy S23 Ultra managed a decent-enough single-core score but the multi-core result was somewhat insipid in comparison to other similarly specced smartphones, including the 8 GB S23 Ultra.https://www.notebookcheck.net/Surprisingly-tame-Samsung-Galaxy-S23-Ultra-model-with-12-GB-RAM-confirmed-in-torpid-Geekbench-multi-core-run.678522.0.html
I wonder if the "tamed" Multicore performance rather signals that Samsung is more interested in extending battery life.
