Apple A18 Pro Excels M3 Family in Single-Core Benchmark Test: Early Look at iPhone 16 Chip
Apple’s upcoming A18 Pro chip might steal the crown for single-core performance, even surpassing its powerful M3 Mac processors. Benchmark leaks suggest the A18 Pro could be a game-changer for iPhone 16 Pro models, but questions remain about multi-core performance and overall legitimacy. Let’s delve deeper into the details.

A18 Pro: Single-Core Dominance, Multi-Core Mystery
Leaked Geekbench 6 scores show the A18 Pro achieving a stunning 3,500 in single-core tests, outperforming not only the entire M3 family (M3, M3 Pro, M3 Max) but also rival chipsets like the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 and Dimensity 9400 by a significant margin.
Here’s the breakdown:
Apple A18 Pro: 3,500 (single-core), 8,200 (multi-core)
Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4: 2,845 (single-core), 10,628 (multi-core)
MediaTek Dimensity 9400: 2,776 (single-core), 11,739 (multi-core)
While the single-core dominance is impressive, the A18 Pro falls behind in multi-core, scoring considerably lower than both Qualcomm and MediaTek offerings. This could be attributed to differences in core architecture (likely 6 for A18 Pro vs. 8 for competitors) and early development stages.
Important to note: These are early leaks, and benchmark scores can be inaccurate. We’ll need to wait for official benchmarks and real-world testing to confirm the A18 Pro’s true performance.
Pro-Exclusive Power: A18 vs. A18 Pro
Unlike previous years, Apple might equip only the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max with the A18 Pro chip. The standard iPhone 16 models could use the A18, a potentially less powerful variant. This strategy could further differentiate the Pro models and cater to users seeking top-tier performance.
What Does This Mean for iPhone 16?
The A18 Pro’s potential single-core prowess is exciting news for iPhone 16 Pro users. However, the multi-core gap and benchmark score uncertainty require caution. We can expect:
Significantly faster single-core performance on iPhone 16 Pro models compared to previous iPhones and even M3 Macs.
Potential multi-core performance improvements as development progresses.
Clearer performance picture in the coming months as Apple refines the chip.
Pro-exclusive A18 Pro chip on iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max, potentially widening the gap with standard models.
Stay tuned for further updates as we inch closer to the iPhone 16 launch and get a clearer picture of the A18 Pro’s true potential.
