Early performance numbers for the 2nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro have surfaced online. Shared by reliable tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo, an initial benchmark run for the unannounced processor shows a massive leap in performance.
Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro Scores 4.84 Million in AnTuTu
AnTuTu V11 benchmark results for the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro show the processor scoring a whopping 4,835,412 points. The listing confirms the silicon is paired with the Adreno 850 GPU, which has driven the GPU benchmark numbers up to a sky-piercing 1.85 million points.

CPU-wise, the chipset scores 1,368,930 points, of which 639,306 is attributed to multi-core performance and 90,007 to AI performance. In common algorithms and arithmetic operations, the processor scores 318,984 and 320,633 points, respectively.
Meanwhile, the Adreno 850 GPU suggests strong Vulkan graphics capabilities, scoring 156,718 points in ray tracing scenes and 849,992 points in standard Vulkan rendering runs.
Comparing these scores to our Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor benchmarks shows a whopping 23% difference. For the uninitiated, the predecessor scored 3,740,686 when tested on the iQOO 15.
DCS also suggests that this early 4.84 million-point run was taken from a prototype before final optimisation and driver updates. The tipster notes that the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro could very well breach the 5 million-point mark, setting a new standard.
As Qualcomm prepares to go head-to-head with competing 2nm silicon like the MediaTek Dimensity 9600 series, the first wave of commercial flagship smartphones powered by the SM8975 platform is expected to debut later this year.
Qualcomm has already revealed Snapdragon Summit 2026 dates, and the event will be held in Hawaii from September 22 to 24, 2026. The brand is expected to announce not just the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro, but also a slew of new 3nm processors and technologies. Until then, stay tuned.
