On Geekbench 5, Vivo’s X90 Pro Plus was spotted running Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, and Ice Universe commented on his Twitter feed that this version has a Cortex-X3 core running at 3.20GHz. That’s slightly lower than the overclocked version of that SoC, which runs at 3.36GHz. Even so, the chipset took a new record in the multi-core test run of the benchmarking application, crossing the 5,000-point threshold with a final score of 5,106.

Qualcomm still has some work to do in terms of single-core performance, however, as it continues to disappoint, but we were impressed with the Snapdragon 8 Gen2’s performance when it comes to multicore workloads. These results could be attributed to the chip’s new “1+4+3” CPU cluster, as it now introduces four Gold cores running at 2.80GHz to achieve this high score.
