The Chinese benchmarking platform said that Qualcomm broke the conventional upgrade plan in 2019 and launched the Snapdragon 855 Plus processor in the second half of the year, which became the standard for flagship mobile phones. Huawei also released two SOCs, Kirin 990 and Kirin 990 5G.
The devices on the list are all mobile phones equipped with three processors: Snapdragon 855 Plus, Snapdragon 855, and Kirin 990 5G.
Judging from the score, the Red Devil 3S tops the annual performance list with an average performance score of 488,450, and the Black Shark 2 Pro ranked second with a score of 461,645. The third place is Realme X2 Pro with an average performance score of 438,829 points.
