Serhii, They may be confusing it with adreno 830, which for some reason shipped with vulkan 1.3 The system drivers that have been extracted from the 8 elite gen 5 show vulkan 1.4 support, so yes, it has vulkan 1.4

Poco F8 should have this, so it will confirm that this processor is the sucessor of 8s Gen 4, should be named 8s Gen 5 though....

The information of 8gen5 GPU is wrong, the Pipelines is 2 not 3, Total shader units is 1024 rather than 1536.

This chipset is definitely better than 8 Gen 3. It's also fabbed on the same node as 8 Elite Gen 5. Basing this off Geekbench, single-core and multi-core scores are pretty close to 8 Elite (8 Gen 4) while GPU compute score is closer to 8s Gen 4…

it has the same GPU as the 8 elite gen 5, it has similar CPU performance to the 8 elite, but it should be a lot more efficient due to the lower core frequencies

Interesting enough due new GPU ARCH can match with SD 8 Gen 3, but can't defeat the 8 Elite.
