The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra might not be the most exciting release, but it’s undoubtedly the most powerful smartphone Samsung has ever produced. The overclocked Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy processor and enhanced cooling put it ahead of the pack, even if our testing indicates it’s not as big of a difference as you might think.
But what if I told you there’s a handheld that provides even better performance at half the price? It’s not overclocked, and it doesn’t have as many bells and whistles, but if you’re looking for raw performance and value, this phone is full of surprises.
