Snapdragon 8 Elite rules AnTuTu with Apple A18 Pro defying score

19 October 2024
A leaked benchmark result is proof.

Sort by:

This is what Apple is afraid of. That's why they pushed the M4 and A18 quickly. Apple is literally facing their own old Apple Silicon team as a competitor.

    We have boggy who bought an iPhone because his last two girlfriends had iPhones. (That's on par to dissertation for a student or Djokovic devotion to tennis)
    Me I wouldn't go that far. ANDROID ONLY upto and including Fembot, Replicant even Terminator!

    There are comments that rightfully say wait for the actual REAL benchmarks for everything Dimensity Qualcomm iOS, to digress & highlight Kangal comment ....We have Pixel 9 prices still awaiting most benchmark. Or
    Pixel prices are inversely proportional to SoC.
    Or at Google Alphabet how did the Exynos 2400E do that? 😂

    FIRST
    Then and only then will comment be based on facts not fiction. Is it me or did I see the 2025 Apple iPhone 17 benchmark?
    SECOND
    "The Snapdragon 8 Elite is rumored to come in two versions: a standard edition with two cores at 4.09 GHz and six cores at 2.78 GHz, and an overclocked variant featuring two cores clocked at 4.32 GHz. Both versions will utilize the Adreno 830 GPU and are built on TSMC’s 3nm N3E process."

    The source stated TWO as two tipsters both on X have submitted two different fabricated scores. Two people on the entire planet (without access to the test phone not verified by anyone else have and incomplete benchmark report.

    Here is my prediction, in the near future when ACTUAL verified benchmark are run they will be oh so different to the above. So my question is do you think that these leak are an error in Cut and Paste. But hey we do have recent data as one of the source leaked that two cortices clockspeed in Dimensity 9400 would be the same as the Dimensity 9300 spoiler alert it wasn't.
    And without pause or explanation the moved onto the S25 Ultra rounded corners, proof gel case...

      Well with such speeds we would need more powerfull batteries to handle this.
      Wonder when BV100 from chinese BetaVolt company will be reality.

From standby to battery life Lunar lake was much much better to the point some tasks lunar lake had almost twice battery life. If you use all core in X elite it use as much as 100W which is irrelevant,

                        I bet it's powerful but insanely inefficient and hot.. performance isn't everything and this asinine pursuit of muh big numbers needs to stop. Customers are to blame too. You don't need this, stop pretending you do.

Samsung and Motorola have this Desktop mode, RedMagic has the Console mode and its here where it is being used. AI also requires powerful computing to work.
