But it’s on Geekbench

As we reported today, Qualcomm is preparing a line of Snapdragon X Series single-chip systems for Windows PCs. According to recent data, the Hamoa SoC, which should be the top of the line, easily surpasses the Apple M2 in performance and is approaching the M2 Pro.

Will Qualcomm be able to defeat even the Apple M2 SoC the first time?

Insider Revegnus says Hamoa scores around 2,600 and 14,000 in Geekbench 6 in single-threaded and multi-threaded modes, respectively, with a large core clock of 3.6 GHz. At 4 GHz, single-threaded performance reaches 2900 points. For comparison: the Apple M2 SoC shows a result of about 2600 and 10,000 points.

True, as we know very well, high “pure” performance in itself is not an indicator of excellent performance directly in applications and in the OS. In the case of Apple, the company has its system and its processors, but in the case of Qualcomm’s brainchild, everything will greatly depend on both Windows optimization and optimization in specific applications.

It is also worth noting that the source talks about high power consumption. This is not so critical in the case of laptops when compared with smartphones, and there is no exact data, but it can still become a problem.

Insider Revegnus was the first to publish a photo of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip5 before its release and also described the characteristics of the Exynos 2400, which were then confirmed in Geekbench software.
