Antutu August Flagship Performance Ranking: Red Magic 9SPro+ Takes the Crown, Vivo and iQOO Dominate

On September 2nd, Antutu officially released the August 2024 Android flagship performance ranking. Due to a relatively quiet August in the smartphone industry, with no major flagship releases, this month's ranking shows little change compared to July.

Red Magic 9SPro+ remains the champion, achieving a score of 2127528. OnePlus Ace3Pro follows closely with a score of 2107208, earning second place. Third place goes to iQOO Neo9SPro+, with a score of 2106419.

The phones in positions four to ten are: ROG8Pro, iQOO Neo9sPro, RedmiK70 Supreme Edition, vivoX100Ultra, vivoX100Pro, vivoX100, and OnePlus 12.

Overall, Vivo and iQOO are undoubtedly the biggest winners. Blue-series phones account for five entries, taking up half of the ranking. The OPPO series has only two entries: OnePlus Ace3Pro and OnePlus 12. The Xiaomi series only has one entry, RedmiK70 Supreme Edition, effectively representing the brand on the list. Two dedicated gaming phones are also on the list but, due to their relatively niche audience, won't be analyzed here.

This performance ranking also reveals some interesting trends. For example, Vivo's flagship models perform worse than its sub-brand iQOO. The vivoX100s and vivoX100sPro, both equipped with MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ processors, didn't even make the list, whereas the vivoX100 and vivoX100Pro, powered by the Dimensity 9300, did.

Similarly, the OnePlus 12, powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, falls short of the OnePlus Ace3Pro in performance. This suggests different optimization strategies among flagship models of different brands. Some prioritize balanced performance, while others focus on specific aspects like gaming performance.

Therefore, when choosing a phone, it's crucial to consider your usage scenario. Gamers should prioritize models with higher performance, while users seeking a balanced experience can opt for each brand's flagship models. These models may not excel in gaming performance but offer superior performance in aspects such as photography, screens, and system optimization.

In conclusion, Antutu's August flagship performance ranking reflects the intense competition in the smartphone market. Each brand is continuously enhancing performance to deliver a better experience for consumers. However, performance isn't the sole metric for a good phone; choosing a phone that best suits your needs is paramount.
