Newly discovered benchmarks suggest that the OnePlus 8 Pro will be the most powerful Android phone ever, outperforming even the mighty Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra

A post to Slashleaks by user SUNILPANCHOLI shows a screenshot (included below) from the site Geekbench Browser, where the results of the Geekbench 5 benchmark for smartphones can be seen The benchmark does not call it the OnePlus 8 I, but the 12GB RAM and Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 CPU make it likely that this is a higher-end model of the OnePlus 8 Pro

Compared to the Galaxy S20 Ultra, which scored 805 on the single-core test and 3076 on the multi-core test (809 and 2699 on Geekbench's own leaderboard) according to its own tests, the OnePlus 8 Pro fared much better

The OnePlus 8 Pro has a much better score than the OnePlus 8 Pro

Despite both models using the same processor and the same amount of RAM, one of the reasons for this significant performance boost could be the use of DDR5 RAM rather than the more common DDR4 standard, as explained in OnePlus CEO Pete Lau's recent forum post explains

Of course, these results still fall short of Apple's A13 Bionic CPU in the iPhone 11 series, as iPhones tend to use far less RAM (3-4 GB) than their Android competitors, so instead the processor is doing all doing all the heavy lifting Nevertheless, the OnePlus 8 Pro's multi-core score is still less than 100 points behind the iPhone 11 Pro's score

We will find out exactly what the OnePlus 8 series is all about at the launch event on the 14th In addition to strong performance, the OnePlus 8 has been confirmed to have 5G support and a 120Hz display

It is also expected to have a quad camera setup on the back, 30W wired and wireless charging, and the company's first IP86 water and dust resistance
