      Antutu? Seriously? The most gamed benchmark in the world is supposed to show performance now?

      I suppose it does in broad strokes. But it is mostly useless. Why do you even bother? That is scarcely reporting...

        AnTuTu sucks.
        I think geekbench is the perfect tool.

          Wait till those scores increase in phones released in 2019 ;)

            they dont test Sony Xperia XZ2 premium, ASUS ROG, iphone 8?

              Nobody here know the fact that iOS devices are separated from Android devices in Antutu ranking ?
              Open Antutu on your iOS device and open rankings, you will NOT see any android devices in the list
              Same on Android ranking , you will NOT see any iOS device

                this goes to show that the latest and greatest note 9 cannot top the benchmark since its not only about the hardware but also OS optimization

                  leledumbo, 04 Sep 2018In a compound benchmark, Apple chipsets can't do much as it... moreNot really.

                  The GPU in the iphone x is capable already, and so the RAM and the NAND. But im not quite certain of what is antutu actually testing.
                  I mean, look at the ipad pro scores for the GPU; they are lower than the adreno 630, but why? Its already know that the A10X GPU is a monster.

                  And look at the S9 exynos GPU' score for the MALI: is higher than the X, but on every other benchmark, the mali is nowhere near close to neither the A11 or the 630...

                        Hmmm...
                        Were is Sony flagships, cause real world performance is were it counts, not just in labs. Not to convinced with thus testing.

                                    Smartisan is my new favorite phone manufacturer. They deserve a lot more popularity than they have now. It's high time GSMA added them here in its database.

A12 might change, as it's now shifting the performance improvement to GPU, while CPU only gets marginal upgrade.
