And on the note, the bad news for Galaxy S24 owners remains the wait for One UI 7’s stable release, bringing Android 15 to the Samsung masses. This is an excellent upgrade and makes Samsung phones materially safer and more secure, narrowing the gap to iPhone — its main competitor pre S25s hitting shelves. It can’t come soon enough.

In its Geekbench 6 CPU benchmark results, the Galaxy S25 Ultra achieved an impressive single-core score of 3106, putting it well ahead of the S24 Ultra, which scored 2136. Admittedly, its single-core score did not beat the iPhone 16 Pro Max, which still leads at 3429, however, the S25 Ultra's multi-core scores are another matter entirely.
