Sporting Snapdragon 888's Galaxy S21 Shows Up on Geekbench

 


The Galaxy S21 series is getting closer to the official announcement of the launch, and we are getting more and more exciting information about the devices to be launched from our hands. So far everything from renderers to case designs has been leaked.

But the leak today is interesting because we're looking at the Galaxy S21, but it's rocking a Snapdragon 888 along with eight RAM gigs this time around. So, we might be seeing another version with greater RAM power, too.

Samsung Will Use Snapdragon 888 in the Galaxy S21 After All

This came as a surprise because Samsung was absent from the list of companies that would announce smartphones with the new chipset when Qualcomm officially launched the Snapdragon 888. That led many to believe that this time around, Samsung would stick to a single chip, but that has changed based on the latest Geekbench finding. You can see the following screenshot, courtesy of Sam Mobile.

The chipset here is called Lahaina, which is also the Snapdragon 888 codename, and SM-G991U is the model number for the Galaxy S21. The listing reveals that the chipset is rocking and operating Android 11 with an octa-core processor with a base clock of 1.8 GHz and 8 gigs of RAM along with it. In the single-core test, the computer scored 1,075 points, and in the multi-core CPU test, 2,916 points.

It is said to carry a 6.2-inch AMOLED monitor, FHD+ resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and in-display ultrasonic fingerprint reader, as far as the Galaxy S21 is concerned, in general. Both the Exynos 2100 and Snapdragon 888 models will be sold. The upcoming handset, along with a micro SD card slot for memory expansion, could also be offered in 8/128GB and 12/256GB versions.

In January, the Galaxy S21 series is scheduled to become official, with preorders beginning the same month. At the same case, Samsung is also announcing the Galaxy Buds Pro, so for those looking forward to upgrading, now is your time to start dreaming.

Night Mode on iPhone: Everything You Need to Know

Image
The newest iPhones from Apple, iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max, are fitted with a new feature called Night mode, designed to take crisp, clear pictures even if lighting conditions, such as at night, are low.   Unfortunately, Night mode is not supported on the   iPhone SE   or   iPhone XR . It remains an exclusive feature for the ‌iPhone 11‌ line of phones. As the name suggests, Night mode allows you to take pictures at night, with lighting that has never been possible on an iPhone before, thanks to new hardware and new machine learning algorithms. Although Night Mode brightens photos, it also preserves the feeling of night time, balancing an image's light and dark elements. For a while now, Android smartphone manufacturers such as Google and Samsung have had unique modes to brighten up evening shots, and Apple is on equal footing with these other smartphone cameras with the 2019 iPhones. What is Night Mode? Night mode is an automatic setting that take...

Best 2021 Xbox controllers: Get the advantage of these third-party and official pads with these

Image
  (Pocket-lint) - The Xbox controller has a pretty remarkable lineage already - following the very unusual design embraced by the original console's chunky gamepad, the Xbox 360 introduced a new type that's stood the test of time. It has been updated only marginally over the Xbox One years, and for the Xbox Series X and S as well, it has remained very similar. That's a testament to a great deal of architecture, but it also has some limitations. Picking up a new controller might be a game-changer, because it's not quite the right shape for you, or whether you want some extra buttons and features.
