Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 has its AnTuTu score leaked

Qualcomm's successor to the Snapdragon 8 Elite launched last October is probably coming in October, and while we don't yet know exactly what the company will choose to call it, we'll just refer to it as the Elite 2.

This chipset will allegedly score around 3.8 million points in the AnTuTu benchmark, according to a new leak from China. For comparison's sake, note that the best scoring device in AnTuTu's charts at the moment is the iQOO 13, which is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite. This manages a score of about 2.69 million.

So the next-gen chip should bring about a 41% improvement in the AnTuTu score compared to its predecessor, but of course AnTuTu isn't everything (even though in China it sometimes feels like it is, but we digress). Still, this should give us a decent idea of what to expect, and it's looking like the Elite 2 will be a good successor to the original Elite.

The Elite 2 will be using the second generation Oryon CPU, developed in-house. The SoC is expected to be fabbed on a TSMC 3nm process, and its CPU will have two Prime cores and six Performance cores. The Adreno 840 GPU will be in too.
