The first rumors about the Dimensity 9300 stated that it will be 10% faster than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. The two chips have certainly exchanged blows, but now it’s old news: attention is already shifting towards the upcoming Dimensity 9400 and Snapdragon 8 Jan 4.
A poster on a Vietnamese forum discovered the benchmark results of both the chips from Geekbench 6.1 and AnTuTu 10. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 maintains the lead in single-core performance, but loses in the multi-core Geekbench test (this was the case also the 2023 chips).
The first benchmarks of Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 compared to Dimensity 9400
Moving on to AnTuTu, MediaTek has a 10% higher overall score. The breakdown shows a 12% higher CPU score and a 7% higher GPU score.
Compared to the current Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and Dimensity 9300, the new chips show huge performance improvements – assuming these results are legit, of course. The results are on the order of 50% higher, which is dubious for a generational upgrade.
The results may be true, however, Digital chat station suggests that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 will hit 4.0 GHz on its main core, while the 8 Gen 3 will hit 3.4 GHz. The Apple A17 Pro should get closer to 3.78 GHz.
