The latest AnTuTu benchmark report for June 2024 has crowned the Realme GT 6T, powered by Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3, as the top mid-range smartphone globally, showcasing an impressive average score of 1,337,357.
Of the top 10, the Tecno Camon 30 Pro 5G and Vivo V30 are the only smartphones officially sold in Kenya, making them the top contenders for local consumers seeking powerful mid-range devices.
The benchmark results highlight the significant upgrade offered by the newer Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 chip, as seen in the noticeable score difference between the Realme GT 6T and the second-place Redmi Note 12 Turbo (1,107,557) powered by Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2. Notably, the latest Redmi Note 13 series, particularly the Pro models, are nowhere to be seen.
Unsurprisingly, the Poco F5, almost identical to the Redmi Note 12 Turbo, follows closely behind in third place.
The rest of the ranking features devices powered by Dimensity 8200, Dimensity 8100, and Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chips. However, it’s important to remember that benchmarks don’t tell the whole story. Real-world performance, camera quality, software experience, display, and battery life are all crucial factors to consider when choosing a smartphone.
Kenyan consumers seeking a powerful mid-range Android device should keep an eye on the Tecno Camon 30 Pro 5G and Vivo V30, as they offer the best combination of performance and availability in the local market.
Ultimately, the best smartphone for you depends on your individual needs and preferences. Consider all aspects, not just benchmark scores, to make an informed decision.
