Vivo Smartphone With Snapdragon 888 Seemingly Listed on Geekbench

Dec. 3, 2020

A couple of days after it wasannounced by Qualcommas its next flagship mobile processor, theSnapdragon 888is seemingly popping up on benchmarking websites, possibly giving us an idea about what to expect from it next year.Xiaomi, Realme, Oppo, Meizu, Nubia and awhole host of other brandshave already confirmed plans to launch flagship smartphones with the newly-announced chipset next year, and the new leak now suggests thatVivo will also be part of that group.

Do note that it’s easy to fake Geekbench listings, so take the aforementioned results with a grain of salt until we get more definitive leaks. Even if the listing does turn out to be legit, Geekbench only tests the CPU and not the GPU, which is where the 888 is said to have made the greatest strides.

According to Qualcomm, the Snapdragon 888 brings the“most significant upgrade in Qualcomm Adreno GPU performance”, although, the company didn’t offer us any benchmark figures that would help us compare it with its predecessor. That said, it is certainly a bold claim, so it will be interesting to see how that translates into real-life performance.
