It’s no surprise to see the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 at the top of most rankings. Similarly, if we look at other online benchmarks, the Red Magic 9 Pro is outperformed only by the iPhone Pro Max with its Apple A17 Pro chipset in Geekbench’s single and multicore tasks.
However, when it comes to pure GPU and combined performance, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is king. In short, the Red Magic 9 Pro outperforms most smartphones on the market in short tests, and uses the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 to its full potential.
