Playing games on a phone needs many things, like a top class processor and good battery life to give you the best experience, for as long as possible. Which is where the Samsung phones, and the Galaxy S25 range in particular comes in - as well as being beautifully designed and comfortable to hold, they pack the tech specs and memory options you need to get the best possible experience. So let's see what that means and why it matters.
What's the tech that makes Samsung phones the best for gaming?
Best in class processing powers | The Snapdragon® 8 Elite for Galaxy is Samsung's most powerful processor. |
A phone built for gaming | The Snapdragon® 8 Elite for Galaxy integrates ray tracing and Vulkan optimization for an improved gaming experience compared to the previous generation. |
Samsung phones can take the heat | Snapdragon® 8 Elite for Galaxy includes a Vapor Chamber and new thermal interface material that lets you game for a long time without overheating. |
Incredible battery life | The Samsung Galaxy S25 range features a better battery life than even the Galaxy S24 Ultra, so you can game for a long time without running out of power. |
Gaming on whatever platform needs some impressive power under the hood to drive your experience. The Samsung Galaxy S25 range of phones features the fastest ever processor on a Galaxy smartphone, the Snapdragon® 8 Elite for Galaxy. That's a good start, but it also includes some crucial gaming specific advantages like real-time ray tracing - which accurately simulates how light reflects and reacts within an environment - and Vulkan optimisation, which maximizes performance by reducing CPU overhead and utilizing GPU resources efficiently. That means in a game full of intense action, like Call of Duty, you'll get smoother gameplay no matter how explosive things get. Combine that with a top of the line audio experience and it's as good as mobile gaming gets.
What are the performance improvements for gaming on the Galaxy S25 Series of phones
| Row 0 - Cell 0 | S25/S25+ | S25 Ultra |
CPU | 45% faster processing compared to the previous generation | 37% faster processing compared to the previous generation |
GPU | 48% improved graphics performance compared to the previous generation | 30% improved graphics performance compared to the previous generation |
NPU | 68% faster AI performance compared to the previous generation | 40% faster AI performance compared to the previous generation |
The Samsung Galaxy S25's almost 50% improvement on CPU and GPU performance compared to the previous generation means it can handle the most demanding games, which means a fast and smooth experience whatever you're playing. While the 68% faster NPU performance for AI will also give you an edge when it's needed.
How can Game Booster improve mobile gaming on Samsung Galaxy S25 phones?
While having all that power and custom tech will help you play high end games without so much as a hitch, having a phone that can monitor the temperature, memory and battery usage as you play, means a perfectly optimised experience. Over time it will measure how a game runs on your device, based on your usage, and adjust your settings automatically to make sure you're getting the best performance. It'll even do things like auto-adjust refresh rate during cutscenes to extend battery life.
One last thing. If you have somehow missed the buzz throughout the internet tech sphere, Samsung has recently launched their latest foldable wonder – the Galaxy Z Fold7.
With major upgrades, such as a stunning (2184 x 1968) 8” main display, a substantial 4400mAh battery, and the Snapdragon® 8 Elite for Galaxy chipset, there’s a lot for mobile gamers to get excited about.
