Previously, we shared how a Geekbench listing for the Apple iPhone 16’s A18 SoC has surfaced, giving a glimpse of the chipset’s performance. Well, Geekbench listings for the iPhone 16 Pro’s A18 Pro SoC and Qualcomm’s next-gen flagship chipset Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 have also surfaced, which yielded some interesting results. 

According to NoteBookCheck, the A18 Pro SoC scored 3409 on single-core and 8492 on multi-core. However, like the A18 SoC’s benchmark, this may be a prototype device rather than the retail version of the iPhone 16 Pro, so take note.

Meanwhile, GSMArena published the Geekbench listing for the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 SoC found on the upcoming OnePlus 13. Do note that both the chipset and smartphone haven’t been released yet. The listing showed that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 scored 3236 on single-core and an impressive 10049 on multi-core. 

Comparing the A18 Pro and the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, the Apple Silicone narrowly beat Qualcomm’s in single-core but fell considerably behind on multi-core by more than 1500 points. Of course, do take this with a grain of salt as these are not the official retail scores of both SoCs.
