One of Geekbench’s early results painted a particularly bleak picture of the performance of the new Apple A16 chipset, however, now that the AnTuTu team has discovered the results of the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max, things are getting better.

AnTuTu Scores: iPhone 14 Pro • iPhone 14 Pro Max

The Pro recorded a total score of 978,147, the Pro Max managed 972,936. This represents an improvement of around 19% over the 13 series models. Also, please note that as the new iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus use the iPhone 13 Pro duo chipset, this is a comparison within the series as well. 14. The vanilla iPhone 14 phones have also been upgraded to 6GB of RAM like the Pros last year (and this year too).

Looking at the failures, the CPU performance has increased by a respectable 17%, while the memory score has increased by 10%. It really is the GPU that impresses with a 28% jump over the previous generation. We are surprised that Apple did not mention this during the presentation, this could be the highest generational improvement in recent years.

The Apple A16 chip shows an impressive + 28% improvement in the GPU score in the AnTuTu test

For comparison, AnTuTu’s early results for last year’s iPhone 13 Pro showed a 17% increase in the CPU score over the 12 Pro generation and 19% for the GPU. Last year it was the memory score that stunned with a jump of 44%.

Note that the pair of iPhone 14 Pro that we tested had 1 TB of storage, which gives it a small advantage over the lower capacity models. However, the A16 chipset shows a solid performance improvement over last year’s chip.

That said, the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 top scores are in the 1,000,000 range with the Asus ROG Phone 6 scoring 1,110,172 in total, 261,708 in the CPU test and 469,592 in the GPU test. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 (which will most likely be manufactured on the same node as the 8 + Gen 1 and the Apple A16) will be out later this year.
