There are a lot of exciting upgrades for the Galaxy S23. But the one I'm looking forward to most is something you can't see.
At its Unpacked event last week, Samsung made some bold promises regarding the performance of its Galaxy S23 series phones. The company made quite some ballyhoo about the slightly faster trim of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen chip that is exclusive to these phones, touting a 41% gain in graphics performance.
Why go big? Now, a larger vapor chamber system is needed inside the Galaxy S23 series phones, because the CPU cores of its custom chip tick at a higher frequency. Plus, the GPU comes with a special ray tracing module for enhanced light and shadow rendering in games.Faster CPU cores, a beefier GPU, and an added ray-tracing module would mean more heat is generated inside that glass and metal chassis.
In fact, the launch event’s host promised “a PC-like gaming experience.” Now, I don’t personally agree with that analogy, but an efficient vapor chamber cooling system does make a tangible difference, especially during demanding tasks like playing high-end games or recording 4K videos. Of course, it’s challenging to keep the smaller model running as cool as its Ultra sibling under the same kind of load, but it would be interesting to see if Samsung’s engineers have truly managed to accomplish the unthinkable.
Previous Next 1 of 2 At the heart of the issue was its Game Optimization Service — an in-house app that discreetly ran in the background to optimize the phone’s performance and battery life, while also keeping the rising internal temperature in check. Some synthetic tests found that the Galaxy S22 series phones were only delivering half the firepower that the processor was capable of when the GOS system was active in the background.
