The Global Galaxy S10+ just set some very underwhelming benchmark scores

A lack of optimization?
With the help of the Exynos 9820, 6GB of RAM, and Android 9 Pie, the global Galaxy S10+ scored 3248 points on Geekbench’s single-core test. Likewise, when all cores were working together, the upcoming flagship managed to reach a total of 7999 points.
Typically, the Exynos-powered flagships are weaker when it comes to benchmark performance so slightly lower scores are to be expected. Ultimately, though, such large differences are very unusual and suggest that the benchmarked model wasn’t fully optimized.
The Galaxy S10+ will still be a pretty impressive device
Moving away from the benchmark scores, it’s worth noting that the 6GB of RAM model will arrive with either 128GB or 256GB of internal storage. Similarly, those of you looking for a little extra should be able to purchase a model with 512GB of storage and 8GB of RAM.
The Galaxy S10+ will arrive equipped with a large 6.4-inch AMOLED display complete with Samsung’s trademark curved edges. This time around, though, the display will feature a pill-shaped cut-out in the top-right corner that houses two front-facing cameras, one of which could be a Time-of-Flight sensor that may allow for improved facial recognition, thus giving Apple’s Face ID a run for its money.
The Samsung Galaxy S10+ will be officially introduced on February 20th alongside the Galaxy S10, Galaxy S10E, and the company’s foldable Galaxy Fold. Galaxy S10 series sales are expected to commence in early March while the Galaxy Fold should hit shelves during the second quarter.
