The AnTuTu benchmark has released a list of the most powerful Android smartphones based on October 2026 results. This month, devices powered by the new flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 chip took the top spots.

First place in the updated ranking went to the Honor Win 2 with a score of 4,958,339 points. The Red Magic 12 Pro+ scored 4,956,846 points, trailing by just 1,493 points—according to the test results, the two flagships demonstrated nearly identical performance.

Both smartphones are powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 but use different cooling systems. The Honor Win 2 features an active cooling system with two air channels: the first directly dissipates heat from the processor, while the second is connected to a VC vapor chamber. In the Red Magic 12 Pro+, instead of adding an extra fan, the company implemented an innovative dual-loop liquid cooling system.

Third place went to the iQOO 16, which also runs on the Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6. The manufacturer paid special attention to gaming capabilities: the device features a 165 Hz refresh rate display and the company’s proprietary Q4 gaming chip.

The top ten also included the Xiaomi 18 Fold, OnePlus 16, Honor Magic 9 Pro Max, Vivo X500 Pro Max, Oppo Find X10 Pro Max, Honor Win RT 2, and iQOO 15 Ultra.
