Qualcomm might stick with the same cluster for the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 2 as it has with its Snapdragon 8 Elite, but that does not mean the company does not intend to use faster in-house Oryon cores to boost performance. The first evidence of the upcoming SoC’s raw capabilities is demonstrated by the latest AnTuTu result, which a tipster claims is 40.7 percent faster than the fastest Android smartphone at this time for this particular benchmark. Let us take a closer look at these scores.
In AnTuTu, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 2 is rumored to have obtained a score of 3.8 million, gaining a significant lead over the Snapdragon 8 Elite
Shortly after sharing some partial specifications of the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 2 on Weibo, Digital Chat Station has revealed the alleged AnTuTu results of Qualcomm’s upcoming flagship chipset. Apparently, the SoC accumulated a score of a whopping 3.8 million, making the results 40.7 percent higher than what the iQOO 13 has garnered on AnTuTu’s leaderboards. Based on the charts, the iQOO 13 is currently the fastest Android smartphone tested on the benchmark suite, with a result just a fraction short of the 2.7 million mark.
Since AnTuTu employs a combination of both CPU-focused and GPU-focused tests, we would like to assume that the CPU cluster and Adreno 840 bring a wide range of improvements to the table. Additionally, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 2 being mass produced on TSMC’s third-generation 3nm ‘N3P’ process should allow the silicon to offer a slight performance boost at the same power draw as the Snapdragon 8 Elite. Earlier, we reported that Qualcomm was slated to bring its improved ‘Pegasus’ cores to the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 2’s cluster, with a previous rumor stating that the performance cores were tested at 5.00GHz.
This frequency bump, along with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 2 supporting ARM’s Scalable Matrix Extension, or SME, could result in the chipset obtaining such a high score in AnTuTu. Of course, since the launch is months away, we recommend readers treat these figures with a pinch of salt, and we will back with more updates. Then again, such scores have us excited about what is to come in the future.
