The next Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 It has been seen in Antutu V11 with a score between 4.20 and 4.40 millionan unprecedented figure on mobile devices. The filtration comes from the hand of Digital Chat Station and points to a notable leap against the Snapdragon 8 Elite current, ranging from 2.7 and 3 million according to the model and the Benchmark version. Although we talk about preliminary results and a still not announced version of the benchmark, the data marks trend and anticipates a new battle in the Android high range.
The coincidence of reports in different media, added to the proximity of the Snapdragon Summit of Septemberreinforces the hypothesis that Qualcomm already has a significantly more ambitious SOC prepared. Besides, Mediatek also squeezes: a Dimensity 9500 In a prototype of I live x300 pro ha exceeded 4 million In the same antutu v11, so an autumn can be expected Very intense in performance, efficiency and abilities of the mobile.
What do the numbers of Antutu V11 say
The range of 4.20–4.40 million It places the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 on another step inside the anti -ranking. It is not just an isolated “peak”: several publications collect the same score margin and attribute it to proof units with high frequencies. It should be remembered, yes, that ANTUU V11 Enter methodology changesso it is not correct to compare directly compared to previous records of version V10; Even so, the jump on previous generation is difficult to ignore.
In parallel, the registration of the I live x300 pro (Dimensity 9500) In Antutu V11 with 4,011,932 points Provides context To the Qualcomm figure and confirms that this time we will see a very close competition also in GPU and memory. If these data translate into real improvements, we should notice improvements in Scenes loading, sustained frame rate and in tasks of AI on the device (Translation, video editing, Superresolution in photos, etc.).
Architecture and Expected Improvements: Oryon and Adreno 840
The leaks indicate a “2 + 6” configuration of Oryon nuclei, with two “prime” at 4.61 GHz and Six of performance at 3.63 GHz. In graphics, a Adreno 840 to 1.2 GHz. Together, we talk about a soc manufactured in 3 NM of TSMCwhere the greatest density and maturity of the node should allow more performance at equal or lesser consumption. It is just what has been insinuating: More photograms in games with fewer watts and higher frequency peaks in sustained scenarios.
Beyond gross power, everything points to a push in Memories (LPDDR5X/LPDDR6) and Bandwidthin addition to Expanded caches To reduce latencies. If Qualcomm keeps the line Snapdragon 8 Elitewe will also see a NPU most capable to accelerate generative models and local functions of AI (call summary, real -time translation, video editing, advanced portrait effects …).
TECHNICAL SHEET: strongest rumors
- CPU: 2 cores “prime” oryon up to 4.61 GHz + 6 performance cores at 3.63 GHz.
- GPU: Adreno 840 to 1.2 GHz.
- Manufacturing process: TSMC 3 Nm.
- Benchmarks filtered: Antutu V11: 4.20–4.40 million (prototypes).
- Aim: better energy efficiency and sustained performance superior.
Who will release it and when will it arrive
If there are no last minute changes, Xiaomi would be in the front row for release the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 with the Xiaomi 16 series. For its part, Alive prepare the X300 with the Dimensity 9500who has already taught his cards in Antutu. The calendar fits with a debut at the end of September and commercial launches between October and November in China, with arrival at global markets weeks later.
For the reader, the important thing is to understand what it will contribute on a day -to -day basis. With greater power in CPU and GPU, that is, a faster NPUwaiting times should be reduced by opening complex applications, best night photos Thanks to new processes of ia, and most stable video games At 120 Hz without firing the temperature. If the efficiency jump is confirmed, we will also see batteries last Or, at least, finer mobiles without a serious penalty in autonomy.
Why does this matter for the Android user
Laboratory performance is not everything, but when the numbers are repeated in different sources, they tend to anticipate real trends. Yeah The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 Complies promised, 2025-2026 could be the course in which The local AI and the demanding games Give a palpable leap on Android. The interesting thing will be to see how each manufacturer refines the refrigerationthe Energy management and the Bloatware not to dilute the potential of the chip.
