Samsung
ProcessorSnapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy (3 nm)

Samsung quotes 40% NPU, 37% CPU and 30% GPU gains over the previous generation. This version is tuned for Galaxy with higher clocks than the standard Snapdragon 8 Elite.

Samsung		Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Mobile Platform for Galaxy Samsung
CoolingVapor chamber 40% larger than before; new thermal interface material (TIM)

The vapor chamber spreads heat from the chip into the body, helping clocks hold longer in extended gaming.

Samsung		—
Display6.9-inch QHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X; 1–120 Hz adaptive refresh; Vision Booster

The viewable area is smaller than the diagonal because of rounded corners and the camera hole. Refresh that drops to 1 Hz saves power on static content; Vision Booster adjusts tone mapping in bright light.

Samsung		—
Front coverCorning Gorilla Armor 2 anti-reflective glass ceramic

Used on the front only. Corning says it survived drops of up to 2.2 m onto a concrete-like surface in internal lab tests; this is not a durability guarantee for any given phone.

Samsung		—
FrameTitanium

Titanium is used only on the frame, excluding the volume and side keys.

Samsung		—
Main screen—7.6-inch QXGA+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X; 2176 × 1812, 374 ppi; 1–120 Hz adaptive refresh

Adaptive refresh rises to 120 Hz for motion and drops to 1 Hz for still images to save battery. Allowing for the rounded corners the screen is 7.4 inches; the fold line can be visible in use.

Samsung
Cover screen—6.2-inch HD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X; 2316 × 904 (23.1:9), 402 ppi; 48–120 Hz

The 23.1:9 ratio makes the cover screen tall and narrow; it works like a regular phone screen when closed.

Samsung
Front cameras—10 MP on the cover screen (ƒ/2.2); 4 MP under-display camera on the inner screen (ƒ/1.8)

The under-display camera leaves no hole in the inner screen, but shooting through the pixels lowers image quality.

Samsung
Water resistance—IPX8 (up to 30 minutes in 1.5 m of fresh water)

The “X” means dust protection is not rated; Samsung does not advise beach or pool use.

Samsung
Connectivity and SIM—5G, LTE, Wi‑Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3; up to two nano-SIMs and one eSIM

The SIM and eSIM arrangement varies by market and carrier.
