One of the prevailing story lines that we’ve been covering in depth over the past several weeks has been the array of smartphones Samsung is expected to launch in just a few weeks. The cheapest of those — referred to as the Galaxy S10 Lite in leaks — should, in theory, compete with Apple’s iPhone XR. But a benchmark that popped up online this week seems to suggest that the S10 Lite will struggle to come close to its rival.
Spotted by GalaxyClub on Tuesday, the benchmark for a phone with model number SM-G970U (supposedly the S10 Lite) offers up multiple revelations about the highly anticipated device. First and foremost, it seems to confirm that the S10 Lite will ship with a Snapdragon 855 processor on board. Second, Samsung looks to be including 6GB of RAM on this “budget” phone — double what the XR offers. But that’s just part of the story.
