Geekbench scores for the Pixel 8 Pro surprised everyone

Amidst a sea of leaks and anticipations, Google is set to unveil the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro on October 4, with the details of the devices hardly remaining a secret. A recent unboxing video of the Pixel 8 Pro materialized online, laying bare several of its specifications and features. Furthermore, the Pixel 8 Pro has made an appearance on Geekbench, revealing its Tensor G3 chip and scores that, while not entirely groundbreaking, certainly illustrate some technical prowess.

The benchmark on Geekbench 6.2 presented a single-core score of 1,760 and a multi-core score of 4,442 for the Pixel 8 Pro. Although these numbers might not be categorically poor, they do not particularly stand out when compared to competitors. To draw a parallel, the OnePlus 11, equipped with Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, secures 1707 and 4892 points in the single-core and multi-core tests of Geekbench 6, respectively.

The Pixel 8 Pro is expected to feature a 6.7-inch LTPO OLED display, providing QHD+ resolution coupled with a 120Hz refresh rate. Potential configurations could offer up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 512 GB of storage.
