As of right now, the chip making giant’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 powers many flagship handsets. But now, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 was reportedly spotted on platforms like GeekBench and AnTuTu. In the past, we had covered a report that claimed that the new Snapdragon 8 series chipset could outperformed the Apple A17 Bionic. Now, the latest leak arrives from Weibo that shows that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 scored 2563 points in GeekBench single core test and 7256 points in the multi core test. Meanwhile, it scored 8621 points in the GPU test.

On the other hand, its overall AnTuTu score came in at 1,712,271 with 331,292 points in CPU and 853,295 points in GPU. If the benchmark results are true, it appears that the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC has a slightly lower performance than the Apple A17 Bionic, which was spotted receiving a 3,019/7,860 points on GeekBench. Interestingly enough, on the GeekBench 6.0 platform, the Snapdragon processor scored 2,723/7,525 points.

Keep in mind that the sighting on GeekBench has yet to be confirmed since the actual listing hasn’t surfaced yet. The leak arrives from Weibo and the jump in performance appears almost too-good-to-be-true. So take this news with a pinch of salt and stick around for more updates regarding this matter.
