Apple, on Tuesday, revealed their new smartphone lineup- iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone X. One of the major new additions to all the three iPhone models was the Apple’s new A11 Bionic chip. No doubt, Apple has one of the fastest chipsets under the hood of their iPhones.
Apple has been leading the single core score, with their chipsets crushing every major processor in its way, right from the beginning. Recently, Apple iPhone X did a quick run on GeekBench test and the scores are mind-boggling. This benchmark score which we have with us clearly solidifies the iPhone X as the FASTEST smartphone to date.
A11 Bionic chip GeekBench 4 score spotted
Apple’s upcoming flagship chipset scored impressively on its recent benchmark test beating all the major Android flagship processors out there. The latest A11 Bionic chipset scored almost double as compared to previously used A10 Fusion chipset in the single core category. Surprisingly, this chipset also scored highest in the multi-core test making it the first win for an Apple chip.
The A11 Bionic chipset scored 4188 on its single core test which is 715 points more than that scored by the A10 Fusion. While Apple is getting more and more powerful on the single core end, Qualcomm and Exynos are still struggling to take a leap.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 and Exynos 8895 Octa are two of the latest and most powerful flagship processors in Android platform. Believe it or not: both these processors were not even able to score half of what iPhone X has scored.
But most importantly, we were shocked to see the new record set by the chipset when it comes to the multi-score performance test. The bionic chipset has managed to score 10069 which is around double of what Apple’s A10 scored in the same benchmark test.
In the multi-core test, Apple has beaten some of the major Android flagship smartphones including Galaxy S8, Galaxy Note 8 and OnePlus 5.
A new challenge for Qualcomm and Exynos
Apple has just bumped up the competition with the introduction of the A11 Bionic chipset on its next-gen smartphones. According to recent leaks, Qualcomm is also working on their next flagship processor dubbed as Snapdragon 845 SoC which was recently spotted on GeekBench 4.
In the test, SD845 allegedly managed to beat the A9 chipset by an extra 100 points in the single core test. While the new record set by the yet-to-launch Snapdragon processor is indeed amazing, it’s worth noting that it is nowhere close to the latest Apple chipset, as the new GeekBench test suggests. However, we expect to see a more improved performance on the upcoming benchmark tests. All we gotta do is wait and see what Qualcomm has in store for us come next year.
Although Apple remained mum about the size of RAM inside the iPhone X, we now know it to be 3 gigs thanks to the new GeekBench results.

I believe the A9 is the processor used in the two year old iPhone 6s.
