Only 3.36GHz but scored 2874 in single-core performance > IPC 9400 = 855 points at 1GHz, and the A18 Pro is 826 points at 1GHz. I'm extremely surprised.

I'm eagerly waiting for Dimensity 9400 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 SoC to come out because they will definitely be the chips to look out for. Dimensity 9300 and SD 8 Gen 3 both score around 950000 or a little lower in GPU alone and I'm sure Dimensity 9400 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 would definitely score more than a million in GPU alone. In fact, I think they will both score around 1.3 million in GPU alone, which is insane. And the total Antutu score of both of them would be around 2.7/2.8 million, ie, 2,700,000/2,800,000. So, they will definitely be very powerful and what matters will be how efficient they are. I think Dimensity 9400 will be like 1 x X5 @ 3.45 Ghz + 3 x cortex a725/730 @ 3.15 Ghz + 4 x cortex a725/730 @ 2.25 Ghz OR 1 x cortex X5 @ 3.45 Ghz + 3 x cortex a725/730 @ 3.25 Ghz + 4 x cortex a530 @ 2.35 Ghz and perhaps Mali G730 Immortalis (different name, of course) MP14 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 will be like 1 x Oryon core (topmost core) @ 3.46 Ghz + 2 x Oryon core (Gold core) @ 3.2 Ghz + 2 x Oryon core (Gold core) @ 2.85 Ghz + 3 x cortex a530 @ 2.26 Ghz and Adreno 830. On Geekbench, I think Dimensity 9400 will get the score of 2800/2900 in Single Core and 9500/10500 in Multi Core and Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 will have a Single core score of 2800/2850 and 9000/10000 in Multi Core. I could be mistaken though, but not by a huge amount. Anyway, one thing is certain, both Dimensity 9400 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 will be insanely fast and powerful and like I said, what matters the most will be, besides the power, the power efficiency of the SoCs
