Galaxy S25 could offer a smoother 120Hz gaming experience

Samsung could launch the Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+, and Galaxy S25 Ultra flagships at an event on January 22. Ahead of the launch, the press renders of the Galaxy S25 series had already leaked earlier. We already know the key specifications of the Galaxy S25 models. A new leak now suggests that Samsung could offer a smoother 120Hz gaming experience on the Galaxy S25.

Galaxy S25 could offer better 120Hz gaming using game frame interpolation

According to the tipster Jukanlosreve, the Galaxy S25 will have support for the game frame interpolation technology. Qualcomm’s Adreno Frame Motion Engine (AFME) 2.0 technology will enable this feature. This tech will allow games with a 60Hz refresh rate or 60fps to run at a higher 120Hz refresh rate/120fps. Furthermore, a screenshot shared by the tipster mentions “Performance optimizations deliver more performance with less heat”.

Notably, the smartphone will also use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Game Super Resolution feature. This functionality will upscale the game’s actual resolution to a higher resolution without using additional resources. Qualcomm’s website also notes that the aforementioned features can “double the frame rate in games while maintaining power consumption”.

It’s worth mentioning that this wouldn’t be a phone to offer frame interpolation functionality. The OnePlus 12 flagship handset already offers this tech. However, OnePlus calls this feature HyperRendering.

These improvements could be part of Samsung’s Game Assist feature

Furthermore, the reports indicate that the Galaxy S25’s new gaming experience improvement features could be part of Samsung’s Game Assist functionality. Samsung could launch the AI Game Assist feature with the OneUI 7 update. The company is working on a new artificial intelligence-powered Game Mode. This will significantly improve the Galaxy phone’s gaming capabilities.

Only the Snapdragon-powered Galaxy phones will support the AFME 2.0 technology. Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite chip will enable this feature on the Galaxy S25. We will have more details in the coming weeks, so stay tuned for regular updates.
