Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite vs Apple A18 Pro: A Quick Comparison

Snapdragon 8 Elite vs Apple A18 Pro

Alright, so I’ve been diving deep into these new chipsets, and let me tell you, the Snapdragon 8 Elite is looking like a beast! I thought I’d break down some of the key differences I’ve found compared to Apple’s A18 Pro.

AnTuTu 10:

Okay, first off, the AnTuTu scores are insane. The Snapdragon 8 Elite absolutely crushes the A18 Pro, with a score of 3,070,269 compared to 1,733,863. That’s a whopping 77% difference! Now, I know we can’t directly compare iOS and Android AnTuTu results, but damn, that’s impressive.

  • CPU: The Snapdragon’s CPU performance is significantly higher, likely due to those speedy Oryon cores.
  • GPU: The Adreno 830 in the Snapdragon also seems to be putting in some serious work.

Geekbench 6:

In Geekbench, things are a bit closer. The A18 Pro edges out the Snapdragon in single-core performance by 3%, but the Snapdragon takes the crown in multi-core with a 22% lead. This makes sense considering the Snapdragon’s configuration with two high-performance Oryon cores clocked at a blazing 4.32 GHz.

 Specifications:

Looking at the specs, a few things jump out:

  • CPU Clock Speed: The Snapdragon has a higher peak clock speed (4.32 GHz vs 4.04 GHz), which could contribute to its performance gains.
  • Memory: The A18 Pro uses faster memory (7500 MHz vs 5333 MHz), but the Snapdragon supports a larger capacity (24 GB vs 8 GB).
  • GPU: While the A18 Pro’s GPU has a higher frequency, the Adreno 830 in the Snapdragon boasts more theoretical FLOPS. It’ll be interesting to see how this translates into real-world gaming performance.

Overall:

Based on these early benchmarks and specs, the Snapdragon 8 Elite seems to be a powerful contender. It appears to have a significant advantage in overall performance, particularly in multi-core CPU tasks and potentially GPU-intensive applications. However, the A18 Pro still holds its own, especially in single-core performance.

I’m really excited to see how these chips perform in actual devices. It’s shaping up to be a great year for smartphone enthusiasts!
