The latest mobile chip and platform from Qualcomm promises to "revolutionize flagship phones" with "groundbreaking" experiences. Benchmarks show that the new chip can't compete with Apple's A16 Bionic chip in flagship phones.
The Geekbench scores for the chip have already been seen in an upcoming phone. The chip scored 1483 in single-core and 4709 in multi-core. 1874 was achieved in single-core and 5372 in multi-core. The A15 Bionic chip, found in the iPhone 13 Pro and the lower-end iPhone 14 models, scored higher than the latest chip fromQualcomm with 1709 in single-core.
According to the press release for the new chip, it will "define a new standard for connected computing, intelligently engineered with the latest artificial intelligence to enable extraordinary experiences." Chris Patrick is a senior vice president and general manager of mobile handsets at Qualcomm.
Compared to the first generation of the chip, the newer platform has a 25% increase in performance and an increase in power efficiency. In 2020, Apple's A14 Bionic and the A13 Bionic chip from the year before beat out the Snapdragon chip that was released for the first time last year.
There were performance claims made by Apple during the keynote.
The A16 Bionic chip in the iPhone 14 Pro is similar to the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip that offers improved performance and energy efficiency. A 16-core Neural Engine is one of the features of the A16 chip. The competition is still trying to catch up to the performance of the A13, which was introduced three years ago.
