Samsung’s latest Unpacked unfolded yesterday, bringing us the Galaxy Z Flip5 and Z Fold5, alongside two smartwatches and three tablets. We had some early hands-on experiences with all of the new devices, but we also ended up with a couple of review units – one of each foldable. We snapped some photos with the Galaxy Z Fold5, before we got to running some benchmarks on the two handsets and it’s those numbers that we’re here to share now.
Both the Flip and the Fold are equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy – the Samsung-specific version of Qualcomm’s high-end chipset for 2023. The main difference (that meets the eye) in this version of the chip is that it has the X3, 2xA715, 2xA710, and 3xA510 Cortex CPU cores clocked at 3.36GHz, 2.8GHz, 2.8GHz, and 2.0GHz. It’s that prime Cortex-X3 core that sets the CPU apart from the regular variant of the SoC, where it is clocked at 3.2GHz (technically, 3.19GHz).
We have started seeing the 3.36GHz spec on other phones recently (ZTE nubia Z50S Pro and Honor Magic V2, for example), so maybe Samsung’s exclusivity on those special Snapdragons has expired.
The Adreno 740 GPU, meanwhile, is clocked at 719MHz in the Galaxies, compared to 680MHz in the bulk of the SD8G2-powered models.
As was the case with the Galaxy S23 phones, the foldables use LPDDR5X RAM. The Z Flip5 has 8GB of it, while the Z Fold5 ups that to 12GB. Storage options for the smaller phone are just two – 256GB and 512GB (no more 128GB version), while the Z Fold5 adds a 1TB option too. Our review units are both the 256GB spec.

Here’s how the Galaxy Z Flip5 performed in these early benchmarking runs we did. The numbers are generally in line with what we got out of the Galaxy S23 in GeekBench and Antutu, though we did encounter unexpected discrepancies in some of the offscreen GFXBench tests that we’ll need to look into during the course of the full review.

Moving on to the Z Fold5, we’re observing the expected improvement over the Z Fold4 and overall solid numbers from Samsung’s latest phone-turns-tablet. The vivo X Fold2 does manage to steal some narrow victories here or there, but it’s not like the Samsung is lacking in oomph.
