In March, AnTuTu’s benchmarking team released a performance roundup focused on flagship Android smartphones. The assessment spotlights devices that push gaming and general processing power to the limit, using a broad set of real-world tests to gauge overall performance.
Leading the chart is the Asus ROG Phone 8 Pro, powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 platform. It racked up approximately 2.13 million points, setting a high bar for mobile gaming speed and smoothness. Close behind, Oppo Find X7 matched that 2.13 million score, this time fueled by the MediaTek Dimensity 9300, illustrating how different silicon choices can compete at the top end of the market. In third place, iQOO 12 delivered about 2.11 million points, also using the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 as its engine.
Fourth place went to the Nubia Red Magic 9 Pro+ with an integrated cooling system and a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip, achieving around 2.09 million points. Not far behind, Vivo X100 also posted about 2.09 million, while iQOO Neo9 Pro followed with roughly 2.08 million on Dimensity-powered configurations. The spread among this cohort shows how several high-end devices perform very closely in the benchmark environment.
The list of top ten also includes iQOO 12 Pro with a score near 2.06 million, Vivo X100 close to 2.04 million, and Nubia Z60 Ultra along with OPPO Find X7 Ultra scoring 2.04 million and 2.03 million respectively. These figures reflect a range of configurations that buyers in different markets may consider when seeking peak gaming and daily-use performance in a premium Android smartphone.
It is noted that the evaluation focuses on devices marketed in China, with most models not available for sale outside the country. The scores are derived from an average across more than a thousand benchmark runs for each device, providing a robust snapshot of sustained performance rather than a single-fast-peak result.
In related news, early design rumors from China suggested a budget-oriented iPhone concept was moving through approvals, hinting at variant strategies in the broader smartphone ecosystem. These design discussions underscore ongoing competition and rapid iteration across brands and price tiers in the mobile market.
