TOP 10 most powerful smartphones for December 2021

AnTuTu published the December ranking of the most powerful Android devices today. For the third month in a row, the Xiaomi Black Shark 4S Pro is in first place among the flagships. This gaming smartphone is powered by a Snapdragon 888 Plus chipset and 16 GB of RAM. The novelty was brought by the GSMAren portal.

The second place was taken by the ZTE nubia Red Magic 6s Pro model, also intended for players, while the rest of the ranking was dominated by devices from the manufacturers Vivo and OPPO. Unfortunately, the flagships powered by the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, Moto Edge X30 and Xiaomi 12 Pro chipsets cannot be found here. AnTuTu needs at least a thousand tests to calculate the average score, but the two smartphones are expected to come first next month.

The folding OPPO Find N also got into the top ten, but it had a disadvantage compared to classic smartphones. Due to the unconventional shape and size of the screen, he had a problem optimizing the graphics and user interface in the test.

Snapdragon 778G as the king of the middle class

Among the middle-class smartphones, the Vivo iQOO Z5 won with a Snapdragon 778G chipset and 12 GB of RAM. He was followed by Honor 60 Pro, OPPO Reno7 5G and Xiaomi 11 Youth. However, AnTuTu claims that despite the differences in average score, all models have almost the same actual performance. He expects major changes in the second half of 2022, when smartphones with new chipsets will enter the market. So far, the Snapdragon 778G dominates the rankings.
