Xiaomi 14 and 14 Pro smartphones have made a small revolution in the latest version of the October 2023 performance rating of the AnTuTu benchmark. So far, they are the only smartphones in the world with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, and they have taken the top two places in the rankings by a large margin.

In the performance test, the Xiaomi 14 model received 1997427 points and the Xiaomi 14 Pro received 1985014 points. The AnTuTu benchmark stands out because it shows the average scores obtained in operating conditions close to everyday conditions, thus allowing you to fairly accurately show the relative performance of different devices. The faster Xiaomi 14 was ahead of the former leader OnePlus Ace 2 Pro by a large margin; It lost more than 300,000 points and fell to third place. If you take into account the results that the reference device Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 showed in a number of benchmarks, you cannot call the result a surprise. But the duo of Xiaomi 14 and 14 Pro is unlikely to remain in the lead for a long time: at least four smartphones with the new chip should already be released in November.

The undisputed leader in the sub-flagship category is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2, which is confidently ahead of the MediaTek Dimensity 8100 and 8200 platforms. Due to its high price, this chip is currently used only in the Realme GT Neo5 SE. and Redmi Note 12 Turbo models. As a result, the top three were as follows:

• Realme GT Neo5 SE — 1154600 points;
• Redmi Note 12 Turbo – 1,152,325 points;
• iQOO Z8 — 962,629 points.

Perhaps there will be changes in this category soon.
