A new claim shows that Qualcomm’s flagship SoC can achieve a 42 percent improvement in GPU performance, beating the A16 Bionic.

According to the company’s teaser shared by Twitter user Alvin, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 delivers a 37 percent improvement in CPU performance and is comparable to the A16 Bionic’s 6-core cluster.

Also, Qualcomm’s latest chipset can achieve a 42 percent performance improvement in graphically intensive tests, making it supposedly faster than the A16 Bionic’s 5-core GPU.

Irrespective of what Xiaomi claims, our readers should be reminded that in Geekbench 5, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 came close to the A16 Bionic’s performance but did not beat it.
