A device believed to be the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 has appeared on Geekbench, revealing some key specs and performance numbers. Based on these results, if correct, we now know how the Galaxy Z Fold 4 will compare to its predecessor and the Galaxy S22 series launched earlier this year.
is over jeepbench (Opens in a new tab)You can see a device called SM-F936U, which we think is the US version of the Galaxy Z Fold 4. We’ve heard that the processor listed on the Geekbench results page is the upcoming one called Snapdragon 8 Plus. Gen 1. The device here also appears to have 12 GB of RAM (10 GB is usable).
Below, we’ve compiled Geekbench results from other phones we tested, including last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 3, and here’s how the alleged Galaxy Z Fold 4 compares.
| single core | multicore | |
| Galaxy Z Fold 4 (Leaked) | 1351 | 3808 |
| Galaxy Z Fold 3 | 1107 | 3418 |
| Galaxy S22 Ultra | 1240 | 3392 |
| OnePlus 10 Pro | 995 | 3482 |
| Pixel 6 Pro | 1027 | 2760 |
| iPhone 13 Pro Max | 1720 | 4549 |
As you can see, the Galaxy Z Fold 4 has a moderate boost compared to its predecessor, which is powered by Snapdragon 888, registering a ~23% increase in single-core and ~11% increase in multi-core performance. When compared to the latest Galaxy S22 Ultra or OnePlus 10 Pro, the SM-F936U appears to have a leading edge.
You should always take Geekbench results with a grain of salt, especially since there is no precious metric to follow. Results can vary greatly, which is why when we do the test, we do it at least three times. We add additional rounds if some results appear to be broken. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 proved to be a lackluster chip, barely better than its predecessor in CPU performance. (The GPU comparison is another story entirely, but Geekbench doesn’t measure that.)
We’ve also brought up the Google Pixel 6 Pro here to see how the Tensor compares to the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1. In terms of raw CPU performance, the Google chip is far behind. However, on the flip side, the iPhone 13 Pro Max and the A15 Bionic chipset continues to outperform Qualcomm’s best in both single-core and multi-core scores.
We expect to learn all about the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and its little brother, the Galaxy Z Flip 4, at the Unpacked event in August. Rumors point to a mid-month schedule, some reports claim August 10th.
Leaks up to this point have stated that Samsung’s latest foldable variant will be lighter in weight with less visible crease between the displays. However, the battery is claimed to be the same 4,400mAh as the power pack of the Galaxy Z Fold 3. Unless the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 is far, far more power efficient than the Snapdragon 888 (something the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1) didn’t, We’re concerned about the Fold 4’s battery life. We’ll just have to see.
