Summary

  • 4.83 million points appeared in a leaked AnTuTu 11 run for Qualcomm’s unreleased Snapdragon 8 Gen 6 Pro, ahead of the company’s Snapdragon Summit next month.
  • That score is only about 5% above the 4 million to 4.6 million range typically seen for the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, suggesting a modest early uplift despite the headline number.
  • SM8975—the chip’s internal name—is still likely unfinished hardware, so the benchmark should be treated cautiously until Qualcomm unveils final specifications.
  • Rumors point to both Pro and non-Pro 8 Gen 6 chips using a 2nm process and next-generation Oryon CPU cores in a 2+3+3 layout, with the Pro tipped to carry an Adreno 850 GPU and 18MB of graphics memory.
  • The Pro model is expected to power phones such as Xiaomi’s 18 Pro and Pro Max, which are tipped to arrive in September.
