HTC U 11 shows up on GeekBench, numbers are promising
HTC"s next flagship, the U 11 (because why not) is due to be announced on May 16, and sure enough the phone has appeared on GeekBench. Or at least that"s what HTC CBP is supposed to be.
This HTC CBP device that was put to the test is powered by the Snapdragon 835 (a.k.a. MSM8998) and runs on Android 7.1.1 - those bits were pretty much settled on by past leaks. GeekBench now reveals that there would be 4GB of RAM on board.
Specced this way, the CBP (or HTC U 11) scores 1912 points in the single-core test, and 6137 points with all 8 cores put to work. There"s but a single phone that"s officially on sale with the Snapdragon 835 inside, the Galaxy S8/S8+ (so, technically two phones), and in our testing the S8+ posted slightly lower single-core score (1832), but a little higher figure in multi-core (6301pts). Of course, the HTC U 11 is likely not in its final form, so we"ll just wait a little longer to see what HTC has in store for us.
