OnePlus 13 appears on Geekbench with Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 and flexes wicked CPU clock speeds

11 September 2024
The benchmarks reports the main CPU cores could make it the smartphone chipset with the highest clock speed yet.

Sort by:

Just when the new A18 pro is announced, Snapdragon really swept the competition

    Hopefully the panel is 19.5 less tall and wider like the iPhone and what Google is trying to do with the pixel 9 pro xl!!

      A flat display, whats not to like then... I hope for this for sure and then it will be a sure buy instead of my S24U which im not super impressed over.
      To many years now with minor upgrades on each new release from poor sammy, im done.

        I'm curious to see what the 9400 will offer.

          Hopefully the reader is ultrasonic, and hopefully the panel will be at least micro curved, if not completely flat. Which is what I would like! but I settle for micro curve

Like 8 gen 2 almost matched Apple when it come out in GB 5 then GB 6 came out. This year 8 gen 4 was suppose to beat A18 in both single and Multi but GB released version 6.3 which boost Apple single core by big margin (because of SME).

            Also don't take phones single core serious, these cores use lot of power and they are useless apart from burst perfomance, rumored 8 gen 4 use as much as 8 watt in single core, same to Apple use many watts, it's middle cores which are workhorse of cpu which do everything including gaming.

            Apple has state of Art E cores, they use as low as 0.5W while provide perfomance to compete with Android middle cores like A720. So if you nail these E cores / middle cores in soc then you get everything from perfomance to better battery life.

The latest comparative scores between the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, Dimensity 9400 and the Apple A18, A18 Pro are largely in Apple's disfavor in multi-core and close scores in single-core

                      Of course, you who are about to buy, will have to do a simple calculation.

                      For example, the device I have at the moment, reaches about 2.4-2.7 Ghz (even if on paper it is declared over 3.3 GHz), but it keeps them stable thanks to the 22,000 rpm fan built into the smartphone frame.

                      I deduce that with typical passive cooling systems, you reach a maximum of about 1.6-1.8 GHz. (when the SoC coating is well designed)

                      So, you will not see the "4 Ghz", just as you will not see the "3 Ghz", except for very short intervals of time. (opening and closing an app)

                      If you really want to understand the performance margin, you must therefore start from the Thermal Throttling of your personal device.

                        how does that work exactly

                          Everyone's hating on the curved screen on the OP 12 but that's a good reason to not get the OP 13 if it doesn't have one cause the design of a phone matters. They nailed it with the OP 12 in terms of eastetics with the screen and camera design. If they revert to a generic China-phone like all the rest manufacturers then what is the point of getting it? Might as well get a boring Samsung since it has better support than any Chinese offering does outside of China.

                            Can anyone explain to me why Android's CPU is never that great in terms of single core workload compared to an Apple SoC? Multi core scores are near identical, GPU scores are better, so why is it that there must be a huge discrepancy when it comes to the single core workloads?

                            This single core benchmark number is amazing by itself, the improvement compared to the last gen is huge but this is only comparable to the A17 Pro's single core score, it's been replaced already so idk man.

                            It's less about attacking android and more about understanding why android phones can't match Apple in this metric, even though they have higher clocked CPUs with the same 3nm node.

                            Anyways, these numbers are bonkers, I just hope there's a similar uptick in efficiency as well and that this gen is not a rehash of 8 Gen 1 where they just cranked the power higher to get more performance. I'm actually more curious to see what Mediatek does actually cus their chips are cheaper so i wanna see how much the differences actually are.

                              Its all about numbers.

                                If the pricing is good for the Oneplus 13 and no curved screens this phone is going to be an absolute banger!
