Qualcomm has confirmed that its next-gen flagship mobile SoC will be called Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. The American chipmaker has even revealed that this silicon will be officially announced on November 30. Ahead of that, the chipset gets benchmarked on AnTuTu with over a million points.
The upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 has become the first Qualcomm mobile SoC to cross 1 million points (10,35,020 points) on AnTuTu Benchmark. This information comes from a screenshot shared by a Weibo profile called 科技晚8点. Unfortunately, the picture does not show the breakdown of the score in different categories.
It is worth noting that even the newly unveiled MediaTek Dimensity 9000 SoC scores over a million points (10,07,396 points) on AnTuTu Benchmark. However, it’s not as high as that of the yet-to-be-announced Snapdragon silicon. For comparison, last-gen Qualcomm and MediaTek chipsets can score around 850K (Snapdragon 888) and 690K (Dimensity 1200) respectively.
Though there’s still a performance difference between the two, they are better than their predecessors in terms of scores. Anyway, at the end of the day, benchmarks only tell half the story. The real-world performance depends on the smartphone’s hardware and software optimizations.
