The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro has appeared in what could be an early AnTuTu benchmark, offering a glimpse at the performance Qualcomm’s next flagship platform may deliver. The result puts the upcoming 2nm chip firmly in the spotlight ahead of its expected arrival in next-generation Android flagships.
Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro’s AnTuTu score revealed
An AnTuTu V11.1.4 screenshot shared by tipster Digital Chat Station shows a device running Qualcomm’s SM8975 chip achieving 4,835,412 points. The score includes 1,368,930 points for the CPU and 1,854,826 points for the GPU. The GPU is identified as the Adreno 850.
Earlier leaks have associated the SM8975 with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro, while the standard Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 is reportedly linked to the SM8950.
For comparison, the latest Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5-powered flagships have crossed the 4.5-million mark on AnTuTu, putting this result roughly 6% higher. However, AnTuTu itself reportedly noted that the result cannot currently be retrieved through its backend, raising questions about its authenticity. The benchmark should therefore be treated as an early indication rather than a confirmed performance figure.
The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 series is expected to power several upcoming flagship phones. Honor has confirmed that the Honor Magic 9 series will debut in China on September 28. While the standard Magic 9 is reportedly set to use last year’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, the Pro models are expected to feature the newer Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6.
However, the Honor Magic 9 series may not be the first lineup to debut with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6. The Xiaomi 18 series is reportedly expected to introduce the chipset ahead of Honor. The same platform is also tipped to power upcoming flagships such as the iQOO 16 and OnePlus 16, which are expected to launch in China by late September or early October.
If the 4.84-million score proves genuine, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro could establish a new performance benchmark for upcoming 2nm Android flagships.
