The August Android flagship rankings remain led by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Extreme Edition and MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400. Qualcomm’s chip in particular dominates most of the list. The data was collected by AnTuTu between August 1 and August 31, 2025, using only models with more than 1,000 valid scores. The scores shown are averages, which provide a more realistic measure than peak scores advertised by manufacturers.
Top three
Red Magic 10S Pro+ is in first place with an average score of 2,947,567. It uses the Snapdragon 8 Elite Leading Edition. This version has higher frequencies than the standard Extreme Edition. The prime core runs at 4.47GHz instead of 4.32GHz, and the GPU frequency is increased from 1.1GHz to 1.2GHz. The phone also uses aggressive performance tuning to maximize the chip. It is worth noting that this is the fourth straight month the Red Magic 10S Pro+ has defended its number one position on AnTuTu’s top 10 Android performance charts.
Vivo X200 Ultra comes second with an average score of 2,899,541. It focuses on imaging with a triple-lens setup at 14mm, 35mm and 85mm focal lengths, combined with 2x ISZ coverage at 28mm and 70mm. Despite this focus, it performs strongly in gaming and daily use.
iQOO Neo 10 Pro+ is in third with 2,875,495. It continues the Neo series’ approach of providing peak performance, while being more affordable compared to flagship devices.
