Early Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 and Dimensity 9400 benchmarks show incredible performance
Early leaks about the Dimensity 9300 claimed that it will be 10% faster than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. The two chips certainly traded blows, but they are old news now â attention is already shifting towards the upcoming Dimensity 9400 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 4.
A poster on a Vietnamese forum has discovered benchmark results from both chips from Geekbench 6.1 and AnTuTu 10. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 keeps the edge in single-core performance, but loses in the multi-core Geekbench test (this was the case with the 2023 chips too).
Moving over to AnTuTu, the MediaTek has 10% higher overall score. The breakdown shows 12% higher CPU score and 7% higher GPU score.
Compared to the current Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and Dimensity 9300, the new chips are showing massive performance upgrades â assuming these results are legitimate, of course. The results are on the order of 50% higher, which is dubious for a generational upgrade.
The results might be true, though, Digital Chat Station hints that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 will hit 4.0GHz on its prime core, whereas the 8 Gen 3 tops out at 3.4GHz. The Apple A17 Pro should get close at 3.78GHz.
