      Antutu has to be the most useless and phony benchmark .
      Scoring gazillion in it means nothing.

      All the Console quality games are only available on IOS .

      And not to mention they also have mesh shading , ray tracing and memory sharing support in new Apple silicon which these android chips won't have.

          For sure this SD 8 Elite can play Wuthering Waves very smoothly in 60 FPS. Or even Fortnite Mobile can sustain smooth FPS as expected.

          This is probably the best mobile gaming console so far, putting on top with best cooling and use of modern standard 6500mAh supply. So expect high demands on power consumption (~15W) on CPU + GPU torture test.

          It beats D9400, which suprisingly insane. Seems close Mediatek, at the 2nd place. Still waiting for comparing power efficiency chart

            "There are many who pretend to despise and belittle that which is beyond their reach" - Aesop's moral.

              I Wish there will Satellite Connectivity also . Instead of improving the power , they should focus on efficiency , battery consumption , and features like satellite connectivity .

                If you're looking for "value for money", you're definitely not the target group - you're a budget consumer. The high end stuff are only for those people who feel that they need it, or those people who can afford it.
                A brand new high end phone is only a couple of thousands of dollars, the amount of money some people spend on a week's meals.

                  Top end chipsets are not mass market chipsets.
                  It's meant for those who can afford it. Those who can't, are not in the high end of the society, and shouldn't be buying things out of their budget.
                  I mean, just because you own a car and Ferrari/Lambo just announced their fastest and sleekest car, doesn't mean you have to go announce to the world that their car is pointless because you can't afford it.

                      apple dont bother to stay relevant in chipset race anymore .
                      They dont care about the most powerful chipset as long
                      same fanatic people going to buy iphone again and again as
                      fashion wear .
                      Even next iphone 20 come , the chipset going to be tiny increase .
                      Not shock Qualcomm will left apple 3 X better performance in 2025 .

                        And if I had to choose between a 1.5 million points phone at 400EUR (some Poco phone for example) and a 3 million points phone at 1000EUR, I will definitely choose the first one. I mean, if I would be in the market only for a gaming phone.

                        Also, any gaming device is limited by the games you can actually play on it. No matter how powerful smartphones will become, mobile games will be.. well mobile games. And now with the introduction of portable devices (with better gaming possibilities), I think is even harder to justify paying high prices for some gaming phones. When I say better gaming possibilities, I mean with better games to be played on those devices, not that those devices are more powerful than gaming phones.

                        And I know on Android phones you can emulate some games and so on, but I will rather have a dedicated portable gaming devices like the Steam Deck or Nintendo Switch (at 400EUR), than some 1000EUR phone.
                        Of course, I am speculating about the prices of these SD 8 Elite future phones, but for sure they will not cost 500EUR.

                                Anonymous, 20 Oct 2024The version of AnTuTu benchmark are not updated and the sameEven apart from that, both are completely separate and different OSes that handle tasks differently. Both are running on phones with completely different hardware.

                                A proper scientific test keeps EVERYTHING the same except the variable being tested, which is obviously impossible in this case.

                                As has been stated before, you cannot make a direct comparison between benchmarks across different systems.

                                        I seriously do not understand why even care about the Apple chips ? Apple chips dont work on android so who cares ? You can have them only on Apple devices. Where these are optimized specifically for the specific device with all the hardware and software.

                                        It's like comparing windows with linux
