It cannot be said that the performance of smartphones is the main factor when choosing a device. But with the growing popularity of 3D games and VR, performance evaluation is becoming more important. We offer you a rating of productive smartphones according to AnTuTu.
For more objective results, inflated indicators and failures during testing were excluded from the calculation of the final grades. A new factor in performance assessment was also introduced - job stability.
Testing rules
- All ratings in the rating are average, these are not maximum values
- statistical data taken for the full period from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016
- to determine the final rating, the results of at least 2000 tests for each model were used
Overall rating of the most powerful smartphones according to AnTuTu
The 2016 smartphone rating shows that the most productive is the iPhone 7 Plus, followed by the regular iPhone and OnePlus 3T (remember that this particular device has become the best smartphone 2016 to Android versions Authority).
The performance of a smartphone is determined by the processor under the hood of the device. Note that all Android smartphones in the rating are equipped with the latest generation Snapdragon processors (at the end of 2016) version 821, and only Vivo Xplay 6 and OnePlus 3 are running Snapdragon 820.
IN Apple smartphones A10 installed.
Since the rating presents devices on different operating systems, for a better understanding of the picture, AnTuTu conducted an additional comparison of the top smartphones of 2016 with other devices running the same operating system.
Rating of the most powerful smartphones and tablets on iOS
iPhone 7 Plus and iPhone 7 were released only in September 2016. Both smartphones are powered by quad-core processors clocked at up to 2.4 GHz. That is why both smartphones score the same number of points in the test. Thanks to iOS itself and optimization, users receive high performance. These smartphones are optimal for 3D games.
Rating of the most powerful Android smartphones 2016
As we see, OnePlus 3T, which was released only in November 2016, ranks first in the ranking of the most productive smartphones according to AnTuTu with a score of 163,578 points. The Chinese smartphone runs on a Snapdragon 821 processor with a core clock speed of 2.5 GHz paired with an Adreno 530 GPU. The OnePlus 3T smartphone is available in two versions:
- 6GB RAM + 64GB internal memory
- 6GB RAM + 128GB internal memory
Second place in smartphone rating 2016 According to AnTuTu, LeEco Le Pro 3 (version with 6GB RAM) is ranked with a score of 158890 points. This smartphone repeatedly topped the AnTuTu rankings in 2016 until a stronger competitor appeared on the scene. LeEco Le Pro 3 also runs on Snapdragon 821 with a core frequency of up to 2.35 GHz. The processor is paired with an Adreno 530 GPU. The smartphone is equipped with 6GB random access memory.
The ratings of smartphones in 2016 look the same. Devices introduced in the second half of 2016 made it to the TOP (compare this Antutu rating with the Android Authority ratings given at the end of the article).
The gap between A-brand smartphones and Chinese manufacturers is shrinking. A powerful smartphone can be found in any price segment. Chinese smartphones They get the latest hardware, premium body materials, and decent design. Therefore, the choice of smartphone for the user becomes less obvious and more complex, with many factors having to be taken into account.

Not all smartphones with powerful characteristics show high results in the Antutu test program. Phones often have different processors and video cards, which may not differ in performance, but provide different data when tested. On this occasion, especially for you, we have compiled an up-to-date rating of the most powerful smartphones according to the Antutu Benchmark program for December 2018.
I would like to say right away that these numbers are conditional, the scores obtained on these screens may differ due to various nuances: throttling, various programs to speed up and disable the necessary and unnecessary programs etc. Many manufacturers have learned to cheat the well-known program Antutu Benchmark so you shouldn’t blindly believe that if you have a lot of points, your smartphone won’t slow down or glitch!

Recently, the developers of the AnTuTu benchmark presented their rating of smartphones with the best price-to-feature ratio, and now it’s time to sum up 2016. The list of the most powerful devices was topped by two autumn new Apple products, and the iPhone 7 Plus took first place with a record score of 181,316 points. The new generation of Android flagships has a chance to supplant it, but that will happen later.
Who is the most powerful in the world?
Closest to Apple devices OnePlus 3T came close with an average result of 163,013 “parrots”, followed by Chinese device LeEco Le Pro 3 with similar characteristics (Snapdragon 821 and 6 GB of RAM). The previous “flagship killer” OnePlus 3 lost fifth place to the Moto Z, which has only 4 GB of RAM, but almost untouched Android 7.0 Nougat. As we can see, manufacturers are not wasting their time optimizing the system.
Xiaomi Mi 5s scored 145,093 points and outperformed its older brother Mi 5s Plus, despite the difference in RAM and lower processor frequency. What this is connected with is unknown. The rating also includes ASUS ZenFone 3 and ZTE Axon 7. A separate list for Android smartphones includes Google Pixel and Pixel XL on the same Snapdragon 821 processor, but with 4 GB of RAM. Control over hardware and software devices clearly benefited the search giant. Apparently, AnTuTu decided not to include gadgets for the Chinese market, such as Vivo Xplay 6 and the more exotic Smartisan M1 and M1L, in the list.
For a snack - a performance rating of iOS devices. The 12.9-inch Apple iPad Pro is in the lead here. Only he managed to overcome the milestone of 190,000 points in AnTuTu. The iPhone 7 Plus moved into second place, and the iPad Pro 9.7 closes the top three. Behind the iPhone 7 (at number four) are models of previous generations.
AnTuTu indicates average results without taking into account all kinds of cheats, in addition, models from the list must be tested at least 2000 times. The rating included mainly devices from the second half of 2016. The Korean flagships Samsung Galaxy S7 / S7 edge had almost no chance, and the Galaxy Note 7, for obvious reasons, failed to take over the baton.
