Post by: Redaktion on October 14, 2024, 13:00:16
With the launch of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 around the corner, phones that are expected to feature it are popping up on Geekbench. The iQOO 13 is one of them, and in its latest benchmark run, the next-gen Qualcomm SoC beats the Apple A18 Pro in multi-core score and achieves a very close single-core score.

Time for a new geekbench version.

So true, whenever Snapdragon comes close, Geekbench updates its benchmark to make Apple look better. The new Snapdragon still lags behind in terms of single-core scores compared to the A18 Pro, so let's see. Could a few more generations before SD catches up with the top-tier Apple Silicon.

There is barely a 7% difference between SD8G4 and A18 Pro in single core. While it massively outperforms A18 pro by ~20%, there is no more generational gap anymore.

Single core performance is more indicative of how a SOC will preform. Snap also hired former apple chip designers to help them finally get there. I m a actually impressed with snap. Only took them 15 years.

And no Chinese manufacturer cheats these benchmarks at all and runs the SoC at near breaking point when it detects a benchmark app. I'll be more convinced when Samsung, (who i hope by now has learned from being caught cheating) get tested.
