AnTuTu has unveiled the top-performing smartphones for December 2023, and there’s a new leader in the mix. Securing the first position is Xiaomi‘s Redmi K70E, a mid-range offering introduced just a month ago. What distinguishes it from its competitors is the inclusion of the powerful Dimensity 8300 chip, delivering performance on par with certain flagship models, and bringing a fresh vibe to the otherwise dull mid-range market. That being said, here are the top 10 best-performing mid-range smartphones of December 2023.

(The list is based on AnTuTu benchmark scores for Android mid-range smartphones as of December 2023. The average score for each phone is calculated based on data from all over the world.)

The recently released Redmi K70E has secured the top spot on the leaderboard, boasting an impressive score of 1,413,428 points. It maintains a comfortable lead of approximately 250,000 points over the second-ranked Realme GT Neo 5 SE. Despite the seemingly lackluster performance of the Realme GT Neo 5 SE and Redmi Note 12 Turbo, both powered by the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2, these devices have consistently dominated the mid-range AnTuTu listings for several months.

This highlights the significant performance jump offered by the Dimensity 8300. With upcoming launches of other Dimensity 8300 smartphones like the Xiaomi Civi 4 and POCO X6 Pro, we can anticipate seeing many new contenders on the leaderboard in the months to come.
