"Both phones are listed with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC, which is confirmed with the presence of the Adreno 840 GPU. However, their clock speeds differ compared to the standard variant of the CPU. The Galaxy S26 Ultra appears to use a slightly underclocked version of the chip, featuring two cores at 4.19GHz and six cores at 3.63GHz. For comparison, the standard 8 Elite Gen 5 runs its dual high-performance cores at 4.61GHz alongside six cores at 3.63GHz."
"On the other hand, the Galaxy S26 seems to be running a mildly overclocked variant. Its listing shows two cores boosted to 4.74GHz, with the remaining six cores running at 3.63GHz. Meanwhile, both phones are listed with 12GB of RAM and Android 16. The benchmark results show that both phones offer similar performance. Samsung's Galaxy S26 series is rumored to debut on February 25 and go on sale in March."
