Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Tested In Xiaomi Engineering Unit Outpaces Apple’s A16 Bionic By 11 Percent In Geekbench 6’s Multi-Core Results
The last time the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 was tested on an engineering unit, leaked Geekbench 5’s single-core and multi-core results revealed that Qualcomm’s upcoming SoC comfortably beat the A16 Bionic in both tests. With the arrival of Geekbench 6, which includes tests that aim to represent real-world workloads, Apple’s current flagship chipset was supposed to have an edge against the competition, but in the latest scores, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 gets the better of it again.
In the latest findings, Twitter user @korean_riceball user shared an image of the Geekbench 6 results, showing that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 obtained scores of 2,563 and 7,256, respectively. Since the latest benchmark update is significantly different from its predecessor, we were surprised when we compared the A16 Bionic’s scores, which were 2,528 and 6,502 in single-core and multi-core, respectively.
An uplift of 11 percent in multi-core results is no joke for the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, especially when it beats the A16 Bionic, which is known for its single and multi-threaded prowess. One reason why we could be bearing witness to such impressive results is thanks to Qualcomm’s apparent switch to add more performance cores with the upcoming SoC’s release. According to an earlier report, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is said to feature one Cortex-X4 super core and five other performance cores.
