Losing the top in the Android market to MediaTek, Qualcomm wants to make a good comeback with Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1. But when we look at the Geekbench 5 test results released today, we see that its predecessor 8 Gen 1 gives a small overclocked model performance.
Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 did not deliver what was expected in Geekbench 5 tests!
Qualcomm’s new favorite Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 scored 1311 in single-core and 4070 in multi-core in the Geekbench 5 performance test. Of the 8-core chips used, 4 are running at 2.02 GHz, 3 at 2.75 GHz, and 1 at 3.19 GHz.
When we look at the performance test results of Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, which was released last year, we see that it got 1219 points in a single core and 3826 points in a multi-core. Again, this 8-core chip is running at 1.8 GHz, 4 of them at 2.5 GHz, and 1 of them at 3 GHz.
In addition, the first devices to use this processor have also been announced. It was announced that Motorola’s Razr 3 model will use this processor for the first time among folding phones. Among the player phones, Asus’ ROG Phone 6 will take place.
Of course, it should be noted that the clock speeds of the versions of this new processor used in models such as the Rog Phone can be improved and the current test performance can be increased by 10 to 15 percent. So this may not be the final version we will come across.
But it will not be as easy as it seems to take the smartphone processor market from MediaTek. Because many brands may turn to their competitors instead of Qualcomm, with which they have been working for years, even in their 5G supported or flagship-class devices. Especially in this period of chip crisis, we see that low cost is more preferred.
