Galaxy S25 Edge vs iPhone Air: Who is the performance leader?

VHO - The comparison between Galaxy S25 Edge and iPhone Air is attracting a lot of attention. Both are powerful, but each device has its own advantages in each test.

Apple has just officially launched the iPhone Air, a super-thin flagship equipped with the A19 Pro chip - the company's most powerful processor to date. The appearance of this device immediately puts it in a head-to-head performance race with Samsung's Galaxy S25 Edge, which has been on the market for a few months.

However, the answer to the question “which is faster?” is not simple. Geekbench data shows that both have their own strengths, and the results depend a lot on how you look at it.

iPhone Air breaks through in single-core score

The iPhone Air's first benchmark tests recorded single-core scores ranging from 3,206 to 3,700 points, while multi-core scores reached between 8,546 and 9,737 points. These are impressive numbers, confirming that Apple is keeping its promise of top performance for its new ultra-thin iPhone line.

Meanwhile, the Galaxy S25 Edge – which has the advantage of having been tested more extensively – recorded single-core scores ranging from 1,579 to 3,205 points, significantly lower than the iPhone Air in many cases.

Galaxy S25 Edge leads in multi-core

While the Galaxy S25 Edge loses in single-core tests, it shines in multi-core performance. Geekbench data shows that the device achieved multi-core scores ranging from 6,564 to 10,102 points, higher than the iPhone Air in the best tests. This reflects the advantage when handling heavy tasks or multitasking on Samsung devices.

Real-world Performance: No Clear Winner

If you compare the average scores from all available data (as of September 9), the iPhone Air is slightly better than the Galaxy S25 Edge. However, this result does not mean that the iPhone Air is faster in every situation.

In fact, just by selecting the data by each test group, users can see which of the two devices is superior. Therefore, benchmark comparisons are often only for reference, difficult to fully reflect actual performance.

More importantly: Long-term stability

Both the Galaxy S25 Edge and the iPhone Air are powerful enough to handle most tasks, from work to heavy entertainment. The more important point in the future will be the iPhone Air's ability to maintain stable performance under continuous heavy loads. This is a factor that can determine the long-term user experience, instead of just relying on benchmark numbers.

👉 Summary: Galaxy S25 Edge and iPhone Air 2025 are both extremely powerful flagships, each with its own advantages: iPhone Air excels at single-core processing, while Galaxy S25 Edge is strong at multi-core. End users will choose based on actual usage needs, rather than just looking at the benchmark table.
