Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus Geekbench listing
The SM-S947B Samsung phone that has appeared on Geekbench is the global version of the Galaxy S26 Plus. This device has been found to be equipped with the Exynos 2600, which is mentioned with its part number s5e9965. Therefore, it appears that the S26 Plus will ship with Samsung’s Exynos chip in most markets.
There’s still a possibility that the S26 Plus may come with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy in the US. While its US edition hasn’t been spotted on Geekbench yet, the Galaxy S26’s US edition was spotted with the Snapdragon chip on the same benchmarking platform last month.
The Galaxy S26 Plus Geekbench listing further reveals 12GB of RAM and Android 16, which is expected to be overlaid with the latest One UI 8.5. It scored 2,304 and 9,015 points in the single-core and multi-core tests on Geekbench 6.5, respectively.
As per recent reports, it appears that the Galaxy S26 Ultra will only be available with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy in all markets across the globe. The Exynos 2600, which is the world’s first 2nm chip, is expected to be a powerful offering, featuring a 10-core architecture with up to 3.80GHz clock speeds. Only time will tell how the Exynos 2600 performs in real-world usage compared to its Snapdragon counterpart.
