With half of the year gone by, benchmarking platform AnTuTu has shared a list of top-performing smartphone chipsets for the first half of the year, i.e. H1 2020, in which, Qualcomm has taken the lead position.
To compile this list, the company counts the CPU score and GPU score only and makes an average for the chipset with all the models powered by the same processor.
As said, leading the list is Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 which has scored 401,108 points with a CPU score of 182,123 points and a GPU score of 218,985 points. Notably, this is the only chipset in the list to have scored more than 400,000 points.

The second position is grabbed by MediaTek Dimensity 1000+ SoC with an overall score of 341,714. With this, MediaTek makes an entry in this list after many years. It is then followed by Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 Plus chipset with 327,796 points.
The Huawei Kirin 990 and Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 chipset in the fourth and fifth position completes the list of top five chipsets with a score of 307,979 points and 307,662 points respectively.
Other chipsets in the list, making the top-ten chart include Huawei Kirin 990, MediaTek Dimensity 1000L, Huawei HiSilicon Kirin 980, Kirin 985 5G, and MediaTek Dimensity 820.
Although Huawei has a few chipsets in the list, that may not be the case for future listings given that Huawei is now ceasing to make flagship Kirin processors from 15th September, after getting banned by the United States.
