Another month had passed and AnTuTu is now back again with the list of top 10 best performing flagship phones for the month of October. This time round, we do see some notable changes to the top 10 list flagship devices especially with the appearance of more Snapdragon 888+ driven smartphones.
As usual, the data source of this ranking was culminated from AnTuTu Benchmark V9 from October 1st to 31st. It’s worth noting that the average score was calculated from more than 1,000 devices, and may continue to change as more devices are being benchmarked.
For the month of October, the top 6 positions on AnTuTu is largely dominated by Snapdragon 888+ powered smartphones. Sitting at the top position is none other than the newly announced Black Shark 4S Pro which achieved an impressive score of 875,902 points for it’s top-of-the-line 16GB+512GB memory configuration.
According to AnTuTu, the high score attained by the Black Shark 4S Pro is largely attributed to the implementation of the SSD array system allows the Black Shark 4 Pro to deliver blazing-fast read and write operations, and hence achieved an admirable MEM’s performance.
Coming to the second position, we have the Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro which sits behind the Black Shark 4S Pro with a score difference of nearly 20K points. Despite the different in score, AnTuTu noted that the Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro actually performs better than the Black Shark 4S Pro in the CPU and GPU department owing to it’s excellent heat dissipation capabilities.
As for the third to tenth positions, they are dominated by the iQOO 8 Pro, Black Shark 4 Pro, Vivo X70 Pro+, ROG Phone 5s, iQOO 8, Meizu 18 Pro, OnePlus 9 Pro, as well as the OPPO Find X3 Pro.
For the month of October, we won’t be expecting much changes to the top 10 list due to the lack of flagship launches recently in the Chinese market.
