Samsung demoes Galaxy S25 Ultra gaming capabilities with a CoD: Mobile tournament

Samsung held a demo tournament between two major Call of Duty: Mobile teams to promote the gaming capabilities of its latest flagship, the Galaxy S25 Ultra. The phone comes with a Snapdragon 8 Elite and a vapor chamber that supports seamless gameplay even for high-performance games, such as CoD.

The name of the tournament was #PlayGalaxy Cup: The Greatest Rivalry with Call of Duty: Mobile,” and it had two premier teams from North America play against each other – Tribe vs Luminosity Gaming.

Samsung's press release stated that the full event, which took place on January 25, was live-streamed on iFerg's YouTube channel and received 3 million views. The venue welcomed 250 fans who “cheered for their favorite teams.”

All players used a Galaxy S25 Ultra smartphone, which TeeP, a professional Call of Duty: Mobile player and content creator, said provided a “console-level gaming experience on mobile.” The demo event also included on-site hands-on zone for all attendees, and players used Galaxy Buds3 Pro and JBL Quantum One headphones.

This was the third year in a row that Samsung held an event to demo the Ultra's gaming capabilities. Sure, they are great on paper, but in our review, we established that the Elite for Galaxy chipset in this year's flagship might be worse under continued load compared with regular Elites.
