The Snapdragon 8cx Gen 3 is a mobile Arm SoC manufactured by Qualcomm on Samsung's 5nm LPE process. It sports four Cortex-X1 cores and four lower powered Cortex-A78 cores. It features an Adreno 690 for integrated graphics. The Adreno 690 should be similar to some of the older Intel Iris Xe graphics, which is impressive for a chip that is basically an overpowered Snapdragon 888. Although the performance is impressive compared to its past generations, its performance is lackluster compared to other x86 mobile processors of its era and Apple's M-series lineup, including the Apple M1.

 Best User Rated
Why does UserBenchmark have a bad reputation on reddit?
Marketers operate thousands of reddit accounts. Our benchmarks expose their spiel so they attack our reputation.
Why don’t PC brands endorse UserBenchmark?
Brands make boatloads on flagships like the 4090 and 14900KS. We help users get similar real-world performance for less money.
Why don’t youtubers promote UserBenchmark?
We don't pay youtubers, so they don't praise us. Moreover, our data obstructs youtubers who promote overpriced or inferior products.
Why does UserBenchmark have negative trustpilot reviews?
The 200+ trustpilot reviews are mostly written by virgin marketing accounts. Real users don't give a monkey's about big brands.
Why is UserBenchmark the gold standard for users?
Instead of pursuing brands for sponsorship, we've spent 13 years publishing real-world data for users.
