CTOnews.com, Nov. 17, Qualcomm has released the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 flagship mobile chip platform, promising to revolutionize flagship smartphones with a "groundbreaking experience." The new chip is expected to be available on Android's flagship smartphone later this year, but base run tests show that Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 is still unable to overtake Apple's A16 bionic chip, which supports the iPhone 14 Pro model.

The Geekbench score of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip has been revealed. The results show that the single core score of the chip is 1483 and the multi-core score is 4709. The score of single core and multi-core of Apple A16 Bionic was 1874 and 5372 respectively. As a comparison, the score of A15 chip in iPhone 13 Pro and standard iPhone 14 was also higher than that of Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, with a single core score of 1709 in the former and 1483 in the latter.

Qualcomm said Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 will "define a new standard for connected computing and achieve an extraordinary experience through intelligent design through comprehensive breakthrough artificial intelligence." "Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 will completely change the landscape of flagship smartphones in 2023," said Chris Patrick, senior vice president and general manager of mobile phones at Qualcomm.

Qualcomm said that compared with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip, the newer platform CPU performance is 35% higher and the performance of the Magi GPU is 25% higher, and energy efficiency is also improved. In 2020, Apple's A14 bionic chip and even the previous A13 chip beat the Snapdragon 888 chip launched by Qualcomm at that time.

CTOnews.com learned that the A16 bionic chip in iPhone 14 Pro, like the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip, is based on TSMC's 4nm process, and both have higher performance and energy efficiency. Apple's A16 bionic chip has 16 billion transistors, including a 6-core CPU,5 core GPU and a 16-core neural engine. "competitors are still trying to catch up with the performance of the A13 chip. We first introduced the A13 in iPhone 11 three years ago," Greg Joswiak, senior vice president of global marketing, said at Apple's iPhone 14 series in September.
