The smartphone chip grocery has been heating up ever since Apple introduced itsA18 Pro chip , with reports of theSnapdragon 8 Elite(previously rumor to be called the 8 Gen 4 ) and Dimensity 9400 surfacing online . Now , Geekbench scores for all three chipsets have emerged , break some interesting findings .
Apple’s Chip Has the Best Single-Core Performance
In benchmarkswe acquit earlieron the iPhone 16 Pro Max , the A18 Pro chip achieved a single - core score of 3150 in Geekbench 6 . It ’s deserving noting that in other on-line benchmark , it has generally scored upwards of 3400 .
On the other handwriting , the Snapdragon 8 Elite ( or 8 Gen 4 , or whatever Qualcomm ultimately calls it ) reach a single - core musical score of 3142 in the leakediQOO 13 benchmark results . The Dimensity 9400 , as determine in theOppo Find X8 Pro list , scored 2841 full stop .
Therefore , when considering single - core execution , the A18 Pro takes the jacket , followed by the Snapdragon 8 Elite , and then the Dimensity 9400 . The Apple microchip excels in mundane tasks , such as launching apps , hold back electronic mail , and using societal media .
Snapdragon 8 Elite Wins the Multi-Core Round
move on to multi - core capabilities , the A18 Pro scored 7974 in our Geekbench run , but it broadly speaking scores upwards of 8400 in on-line benchmark .
On the other hand , the Snapdragon 8 elect scores a whopping 10052 points in Geekbench multi - core tests . The Dimensity 9400 , while not as hefty as the Snapdragon 8 Elite , still outperforms the A18 Pro with a multi - core mark of 8838 , nearing the 9000 gull .
With the proficient multi - core performance , the Snapdragon chip would excel in picture redaction , play , and multitasking . However , that also calculate on package optimisation and heat management .
The Question Remains: Who Wins the Efficiency Round?
Based on the latest passing water , the custom Snapdragon 8 Elite arriving with theOnePlus 13 is report to be more efficient than the A18 Pro , forthwith bewilder it in power consumption . However , it ’s still unclear how the public interlingual rendition of the chip , used by other smartphone maker , will perform in this esteem .
The Dimensity 9400 , on the other script , reportedly demonstrates good power efficiency than the A18 Pro during GPU - intensive task like play and picture rendering . This is particularly noteworthy as it ’s also 40 % more power - efficient than its predecessor .
While Apple and Qualcomm appear to head in overall performance , and there ’s still no well-defined success on overall efficiency , the Dimensity potato chip could excel in the GPU department . However , real - world tests and benchmarks are needed to confirm its genuine efficiency across unlike custom scenarios . Let ’s see what they ’re up to once we have them for testing .
