Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8150 Geekbench results leaked
“As per the scores, Snapdragon 8150 is nowhere close to the single-core performance of Apple’s A12 bionic chipset”
The first smartphone with Snapdragon 8150 was announced today (the Royole FlexPai), but surprisingly enough, we still don’t know much about Qualcomm’s upcoming chipset. It is said to the be long-awaited successor of Snapdragon 845 and is expected to power next generation of flagships, that’ll launch in 2019. Even Qualcomm hasn’t let out much about its top-tier SoC, but amidst all this, the scores of the forthcoming chip have been leaked on Geekbench.

The chip will reportedly be based on the 7nm process and a new generation Kryo cores. Rumor has it’ll be a tri-cluster setup with two dual cores and a quad-core chip, instead of the usual pair of quad-core clusters. The arrangement would be similar to that of Kirin 980 where two cores are used for burst performance, two for sustained speed and four little cores for handling lighter tasks.
The benchmark results seemed to be obtained on a reference device. And as expected the numbers are pretty strong compared to Snapdragon 845. With the single-core score of around 3,100 and multi-core scores of around 10,000, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8150 silicon shows incremental improvement over its predecessor. However, these scores are nowhere near to that of Huawei’s Kirin 980 chipset (~3,300) and Apple’s 7nm A12 bionic SoC (~4,700), especially in single-core performance. Even in multi-core tests, A12 tops it with the difference of more than 1,300 points.
Anyways these are early results and it’s unknown whether or not the chip was running at final clock speeds. So it’s better to take these scores with a grain of salt. Meanwhile, the first smartphone with the SD8150 phone was announced today. The Royole FlexPai is also the world’s first commercial flexible smartphone. It opens up into a tablet-like form factor with a 7.8-inch AMOLED display but contours into a 4-inch smartphone once folded.
