It's Snapdragon 8 Elite vs. Dimensity 9400 in AnTuTu's November chart, here's the winner

November's AnTuTu chart for flagship smartphones was always going to be interesting, and indeed it is. It was published today along with the usual upper-midrange chart and the new tablet chart, and we'll get to those in a bit.

First, let's look at the cream of the crop. All of the phones in the top 10 for November are powered either by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite or MediaTek's Dimensity 9400, each respective maker's latest and greatest. No other chip can compete.

Between them, Qualcomm's new flagship SoC takes the cake in two separate ways: it powers the phone that's No.1 in the chart, the Asus ROG Phone 9 Pro, and it's inside six of the top ten devices, whereas the Dimensity 9400 is only in four of them.

The ROG Phone 9 Pro is followed by the vivo X200 Pro, the Oppo Find X8 Pro (both featuring the Dimensity 9400), the iQOO 13 and OnePlus 13 (both featuring the Snapdragon 8 Elite), the Oppo Find X8 and vivo X200 (both Dimensity 9400-powered), while the last three spots in the top ten are occupied by the Honor Magic7 Pro, the Magic7, and the Redmi K80 Pro, all with the Snapdragon 8 Elite on board.

In the upper-midrange chart the Realme GT Neo6 SE has taken the lead from the OnePlus Ace 3V which had been in the top spot for quite a while, but they both use the same Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 SoC which still clearly rules over this realm.

Positions 3 through 7 in the top ten have stayed completely unchanged from October's chart, with the Redmi K70E, Realme GT Neo5 SE, Redmi Note 12 Turbo, iQOO Z8, and iQOO Neo7 SE each holding their ground, while the Redmi Note 12T Pro climbs a spot to now reach No.8, and is followed by the Redmi K50 powered by the Dimensity 8100 SoC and the iQOO Z9 with its Snapdragon 7 Gen 3.

The tablet chart is completely unchanged from last month, portraying how little performance competition there is in this space. The Red Magic Nova still leads, followed by the Oppo Pad 3 Pro, the iQOO Pad2 Pro, the vivo Pad3 Pro, the OnePlus Pad Pro, the Lenovo Legion Y700 (2025), the Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro 12.4, the vivo Pad3, iQOO Pad2, and Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro.
