Any Internet user who is interested in reviews of various models of phones, tablets, computers and other devices has probably heard about AnTuTu ratings at least once.

In this article we will take a detailed look at both the program itself and the latest AnTuTu rating of 2018.

What is AnTuTu

AnTuTu is a program that tests the performance of the device and gives ratings for various parameters. Users can use the service to find out information about ease of use, power and type of processor.

In order to use this service, you need to download it to your device. It is better to download through PlayMarket if operating system Android.

If it is a Mac, then the AppStore is used. Then all that remains is to find the icon on the desktop and click on it.

There, testing on the application is launched. Based on the results, you can see your productivity, speed, performance, graphics, etc. indicators. You can also compare with other devices.

The service awards points based on matches between the original indicators and those displayed on the screen.

Thus, the total column is a simple result of arithmetic operations. That is, she adds the numbers from each column one device at a time, then divides them by the number three. The final number in the equation is given in the most right side.

TOP 15 phones according to AnTuTu ratings 2018

One Plus 5

This new model smartphones, which is recognized as better according to the AnTuTu rating, because the indicators are very high, the result in terms of processor power is especially different. Figures on ease of use were also revealing.

Noteworthy is the RAM, or rather its volume, which is equal to eight GB. It is also interesting that two dual cameras of 16 and 20 megapixels have been introduced. This is a very good camera; not every single camera has such clarity and color reproduction.

As a result, this is a very worthwhile device, and the numbers from the testing service only confirm the first place in the ranking at the end of August 2017.

Points 181057.

This device is not far from the previous phone in terms of rating. In fact, the difference between them is small, and the processor is the same.

This interesting fact despite the fact that the RAM here is not so large. Its volumes can be 4 or 6 GB, but not 8 GB, as in One Plus 5.

Distinctive feature can be called a pronounced glossy coating on the back of the case, it is offered in various colors: white, black, sapphire blue, solar red, silver. This is wise considering various requests consumer.

Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 835.

Balls 180010.

Some may be surprised that this smartphone has leapfrogged the iPhone 7+. But here the average result from all indicators played a role.

Indeed, the iPhone prevails in such indicators as comfort of use and processor power.

But here the excellent 3D graphics did not play in its favor, which became decisive in establishing the level in the list.

The RAM is no more than 4 GB, and the screen is large, its diagonal is 6.2 inches.

Processor: Exynos 8895, eight cores.

Points 172676.

As you know, this model is not particularly different from the older flagship, which has a plus added to its name. And there is almost no difference in the rating between them.

Here are the same four gigabytes random access memory, and also they have the same processor.

The biggest difference, according to the table, is in the overall ease of use of the device. This means that there is still a difference between them during operation. But purely cosmetic.

Points 172427.

Xiaomi Mi6

The increasingly popular Xiaomi line was introduced in 2016 by the Mi6, which caused a lot of excitement because it contains very high-quality and new components.

Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 835.

Points 172121.

Based on its main characteristics, this device is considered one of the best, as well as the most popular. RAM reaches three gigabytes.

Processor: Apple A10 Fusion: two cores 2.23 GHz, two cores 1.4 GHz, M10 coprocessor.

Points 169030.

The RAM in this device does not exceed four GB. It is noteworthy that Sony Xperia XZ premium is relatively comfortable to use, as AnTuTu testing shows.

There are many different convenient options and options available here. They include new technologies for protection against dust deposition, as well as against moisture penetration.

It is worth noting the boldness of the design decision: to make a fairly wide frame around the screen, and at the same time creating rather sharp corners of the body.

Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 835.

Points 168569.

It’s interesting to compare the manufacturers’ testing performance with the Plus option.

As a result, it turns out that the figures for processor power are slightly higher for the iPhone 7; in other parameters, the Plus has some superiority.

This device is equipped with only two gigabytes, there are four cores, and a relatively average battery capacity. So it is worth recognizing the clear difference between these close models, thanks to AnTuTu, this has become obvious.

Processor: Apple A10 Fusion 4 cores.

Points 160538.

A budget option for a mobile device with respect to such qualities as powerful processor, 6 GB of RAM, and also a good camera.

It is worth noting the good level of 3D graphics, as the performance results table shows. At the level of their closest neighbors, some indicators are quite high.

Also a pleasant moment was the introduction of the Type-C connector, which many modern users will appreciate. Testing indicators for all provisions remain at a certain level, that is, this product is competently and harmoniously made.

Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 MSM8996.

Points 157746.

The presented device is one of the examples of how the Chinese know how to make decent equipment, if there is such a goal.

According to AnTuTu statistics, this is a harmonious device from all sides. This means that LeEco Le Pro3 deserves its place in all respects.

The screen dimensions are standard - 5.5 inches, and the RAM is up to 4 GB in size. A new, and recognized as one of the most powerful, processor, even four cores fit in there.

Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 821.

Points 154866.

As for the middle class, this mobile phone fully meets the requirements. This means that it has 2/3 GB of RAM, a decent and modern OS, and also 13 and 5 megapixel cameras.

By the way, a lithium-polymer battery is installed here; its volume is 4130 mAh, which ultimately gives very good performance.

There is 8 gigabytes of RAM, and along with it comes a 256 GB SSD card. New inputs/outputs in the form of Type-C.

CPU: Intel Core m3-6Y30 (2/4 cores/threads, 0.9/2.2 GHz, 3.8-7 W).

Points 166200.

The tablet from this company takes fourth place, but, in fact, it is practically no different from what takes third place. They have the same strong processors, 8 GB of RAM.

But the main advantage of this particular model is its significantly lower cost (about three hundred dollars), although in reality the difference is not felt.

Processor: Intel M3-6Y30 Skylake, 2 cores.

Points 146012.

The developers clearly put a lot of emphasis on the design of the product's appearance, although it cannot be said that processor power or too much RAM was missed.

Considering that the average price requested for it is about four hundred twenty-four dollars, then this is quite decent option– quality, design, performance, etc.

Processor: Intel Core m3-6Y30 0.9 GHz.

Points 120000.

This tablet variant is an example of when more attention is paid when designing appearance, as well as minimizing energy costs.

That is, this device is much worse than those Apple options that are higher in the rating.

But its cost is not particularly reduced and is popular among buyers precisely because of the incredible thinness of the product and low electricity consumption.

Processor: two Apple Cyclone cores. Coprocessor: one ARM Cortex-M3 core.

Points 98102.

The AnTuTu team, which created one of the most popular benchmarks for mobile devices, published another monthly report. It included the most powerful years of 2016, as of October 1. In comparison with previous ratings (which remained almost unchanged for several months), there is a significant change in the list. It is caused by the fact that several companies released new flagships in September.

Top most powerful smartphones

"Little brother", iPhone 7 - the second most powerful smartphone of 2016. The device scored 170 thousand “parrots” in the test. It is equipped with the same Apple A10 Fusion chipset, but the device has 2 GB of RAM. The difference of only 2 thousand points is due to the fact that the new device is equipped with the same HD screen as its predecessor, the iPhone 6s, which does not create large loads on the computing part.


LeEco Le Pro 3 is the most powerful smartphone of 2016
,running Android. The device was able to score almost 161 thousand points thanks to the new Snapdragon 821 chipset. Updated version The flagship SoC differs from the 820 in minor architectural improvements that increase energy efficiency and make it possible to increase clock frequencies. Overclocked 4 Kryo cores and an accelerated version of Adreno 530 graphics were able to achieve an almost 15% increase in performance. The progress was also facilitated by 6 GB of RAM on board. The main disadvantage of the device can be considered the lack of a standard headphone jack, like the iPhone 7. Music lovers will have to be content with an adapter, buy wireless headset or “ears” with USB Type C.


On the fourth line in the TOP most powerful smartphones turned out to be Xiaomi Mi5S Plus
. He was able to score 153 thousand points, which is almost 20 thousand more than his predecessor. The high result was ensured by the same Snapdragon 821. The device has 6 gigabytes of RAM, as befits an Android flagship. The 5.7″ screen has the usual FullHD resolution (not QHD), so the 5% lag from the leader LeEco looks a little strange. However, at the time of writing, Xiaomi Mi5S Plus is the most powerful smartphone in the world, equipped with a 3.5 mm headphone jack.


Fifth place in the TOP of the most powerful smartphones went to Xiaomi Mi5S
. It scored 142 thousand “parrots”, breaking the record of last month’s leader, OnePlus 3. The smartphone is also equipped with a Snapdragon 821 chipset, but its clock speed is reduced from 2.35 to 2.15 GHz. This, as well as a decrease in RAM capacity to 4 GB, explains the 11 thousand points difference with the “big brother”. After all, unlike iPhones, here the screen resolution of both devices is 1920x1080 pixels, while Apple installs FullHD matrices only in the 7 Plus model. It’s interesting that both new Xiaomi flagships, like LeEco Le Pro 3, were able to get into the selection just a few days after the start of sales. This means that the owners of these devices performed more than 500 tests each with device verification through the company’s service. Previously, some devices did not make it into the TOP for more than a month from the start of sales (for example, HTC 10), due to a lack of testing in the AnTuTu database.


Last month's record holder, OnePlus 3, slipped from first place to sixth.
The previous record holder, the Snapdragon 820 chipset, after 7 months of reign, decorously yielded the throne to its heir. Now the Snapdragon 821 is the most powerful processor for Android smartphones in 2016. The result of OnePlus 3 is 140 thousand points, which is due to the processor and 6 GB of RAM. The device screen resolution is standard 1920x1080 pixels.


Vivo Xplay 5 took seventh place in the ranking of the most powerful smartphones for September 2016
. The result of its testing is more than 138 thousand AnTuTu “parrots”, due to the presence of the same Snapdragon 820 and 6 GB of RAM. The screen with a QHD resolution of 2560x1440 pixels did not allow the device to surpass the August record of 140 thousand. It consumes slightly more computing resources than FullHD, so it reduces overall performance.


Eighth place in the list of the most fast smartphones went to Samsung Galaxy Note 7
. The “explosive” device (by the way, sales of its updated version without a defect in the battery have already begun around the world) scored the same 138 thousand points, which is the merit of the Snapdragon 820 chipset. The model based on Exynos 8890, sold in Europe, gains about 5 thousand points less. The Korean flagship has 4 GB of RAM and a screen resolution of 2560x1440 pixels. Thus, Korean developers can be praised for decent optimization, which allowed the phablet to surpass some competitors with 6 GB and FullHD.

Antutu Benchmark is one of the most popular applications for testing a smartphone. It appeared on the market in 2011 and in 7 years has more than 100 million users. Every month the company publishes a rating based on user tests, the data obtained is averaged. For a smartphone to be included in the rating, at least 1,000 units of the same model must be tested.

How is the overall score calculated?

The smartphone is assigned a final score based on the points it receives for each test it performs. The results for each test will be useful for comparing important parameters, for example comparing data from 3D tests GPU when choosing a gaming smartphone.

Which test results are included in the final score?

  • CPU- the processor is tested in single-threaded and multi-threaded mode.
  • GPU- the GPU is tested in 3D tests. IN latest version Antutu v7 two new 3D scenes have been added. On which one can clearly observe the superiority of high-performance chips over mid-range and low level. This is expressed in better detail, realism and the presence of shadows.
  • UX- this section is responsible for testing the smartphone in everyday tasks. In the latest version, scenes have been added that simulate scrolling news in the application, browsing web pages and scanning QR codes.
  • MEM- the application tests RAM and ROM.

The first places in the ranking are occupied by smartphones with Qualcomm processor Snapdragon 855, announced in early 2019. Also in the top 10 are Samsung models with Samsung processor Exynos 9820 and Huawei smartphones with Huawei Kirin 980 processor.

Antutu and other popular tests are not perfect. Many manufacturers have been caught cheating; they specially optimized the smartphone system to achieve maximum results in tests. Of course, application developers are trying to combat this by regularly releasing updates.
