An early benchmark has outlined prospective Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 performance before the chipset’s late November launch. Paired with 16 GB of RAM in the OnePlus Ace 6T, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 outperforms the Snapdragon 8 Elite in most tasks while falling well behind the flagship-level Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, despite sharing features like its Adreno 840 GPU.
Earlier this week, the same chipset surfaced on Geekbench in what is believed to be the OnePlus Ace 6T. Based on the scores achieved then and since, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 manages roughly the same single-core performance as the Snapdragon 8 Elite while outperforming it in multi-core workloads. From that, one can glean that the Ace 6T could match the existing OnePlus 13 when it comes to performance (curr. $799 on Amazon).
Now, an official AnTuTu V11 score indicates that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 could outperform the Snapdragon 8 Elite in other areas too. For reference, the chipset was benchmarked again inside the Ace 6T, which AnTuTu confirms has a 165 Hz display, 16 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 1 TB of UFS 4.1 storage. As the image below shows, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 exceeds over 3.5 million points in AnTuTu V11, a score that would see the Ace 6T falling short of AnTuTu’s top 10 official rankings.
