Pro trajectory
The Dimensity 9600 Pro, which MediaTek is expected to unveil this month, has appeared again in a Geekbench test conducted on the Vivo X500 Pro Max. The processor, bearing the model number MT6995, scored 4,137 points in the single-core test and 12,751 points in the multi-core test. In the previous record, the scores were 2,653 and 7,516, respectively; the new results represent increases of approximately 56% and 70%. The processor is expected to compete with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 and Apple A20 Pro, and to be used in Vivo and Oppo’s high-end models.
Xring trend
Xiaomi announced the Xring O3 last week. Since the device and chip have not been officially unveiled, the results may not reflect final performance. Temperature, power profile, Geekbench version and optimizations may affect the difference; the increase does not prove a hardware-based acceleration.
