The Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 has shown up again in Geekbench, this time inside the upcoming iQOO Pad Ultra. And the results are once again lower than what you might expect from Qualcomm’s next flagship chip.
A Vivo tablet with the model number iPA2691 has appeared on Geekbench 7. The same model number was previously spotted in China’s SRRC certification database, which linked it to the iQOO Pad Ultra.
Now, Geekbench confirms that the tablet will be powered by the SM8975 processor, which is said to be the Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6. The chip is expected to use a 2nm process and has an eight-core CPU setup in this listing. It includes three cores clocked at 3.74GHz, three at 4.03GHz, and two high-performance cores reaching 5.01GHz. Graphics are handled by an Adreno 850 GPU.
The tested tablet has 16GB of RAM and runs Android 17.
iQOO Pad Ultra Geekbench scores don’t reflect peak performance
As for the scores, the iQOO Pad Ultra managed 1,512 points in the single-core test and 6,770 points in the multi-core test. These numbers are much lower than even last-gen processors. But there is an important detail here.
These are pre-release devices, so unfinished software, firmware, and thermal limits could all affect the results. Retail units could perform quite differently once the software and cooling systems are finalized.
The Pad Ultra’s cooling setup could also help. iQOO has already confirmed that the tablet will have a built-in cooling fan capable of reaching up to 14,500rpm. The fan is housed in a compact 30 x 30 x 3.5mm module.
The device is set to launch in China in late September.
