Zopo reveal their Speed 8 Helio X20 Antutu scores

AndiApril 22, 2016

It feels like an age ago when Zopo revealed the Speed 8 at MWC, and believe it or not but the phone is still not on sale, but those of you waiting here are the Antutu scores for the phone.

Although announced at MWC, the Zopo Speed 8 still hasn’t gone on sale (however pre-sales did start a few weeks back). For those of you who have forgotten the details the Speed 8 has a 5.5-inch FHD display, 4GB RAM, 32GB memory, 21 mega-pixel IMX230 rear camera, NFC, fingerprint scanner and Type C USB.

At the time of launch the Speed 8 was the first phone to be announced with a Helio X20 chipset, but that detail has been somewhat overshadowed by the release of Helio X25 devices from both Meizu and LeTV.

Still the specs on the Zopo Speed 8 do suggest a decent performer, and the first official Antutu scores show a score of 91,464 points. Our Zopo contacts say that the scores remain quite stable even after numerous tests, but as we all know Antutu isn’t really a great way to judge a phones performance.

We’ve put in a request for Zopo to run some other benchmarks and we wait to finally get a production version of the phone for review to see what the device runs like in the flesh.

That’s the news I was hoping to read today!!!
Nah, I’m kidding.
Hey Zopo,what is this crap? Let me guess… You guys are also measuring your dick to find out who got the biggest?

  If a phone has anything to do with that size, I’m picking the cubot dinosaur for this fight! ?

  When I first started into this never ending adventure of Chinese phones, Zopo was one of the biggest and best names in the industry. Amazing how much has changed in a few years. Think of all the companies that were around back then and have since disappeared.

    I remember that time.
    Now they are being a joke, and I’m not talking of the quality of their phones but this BS of Antutu score so people know they are still here but they can’t actually release a phone which had been surpassed by the competitors already

      I agree with you, posting Antutu scores is petty to me. It’s worse than the crap Elephone pulls with their weekly feature reveals.

Hope they sort out the software before releasing it . Meizu seems almost there but LeEco has work to do.

You can release an Antutu score but not the actual phone. I like the design of it but there are better phones from better companies out now. Too late Zopo.

  Nobody here, excepted 1 or 2, is discussing your knowledge about hardware and software. But I honestly have big doubts about your tastes for design. 😀
  I remember reading you saying that Samsung 7 Edge had a bad design.

      Edge 7 is IMO the best designed phone, right now.

        That’s the beauty of this industry there is something for everyone. For people who like ugly phones there is the S7 Edge, for me there is beautiful phones like Meizu Pro 6.

        LOL! If any metallic rectangular shape with rounded edges is a beauty demonstration in terms of design . So no hard feelings but I will stick with the ugliness of the S7 Edge. I just guess that we will be millions to prefer it over the iPhone Pro 6… Hrrr sorry: the Meizu Pro 6.

    Design is a part of esthetic & it’s a highly subjective & metaphysical category. At the end even ugly is a Esthetic category.

  And personally Zopo would need impress me in a cheaper device to make me order their “flagship”. Currently in terms of build they suck from the cheaper to the most expensive… Man Zopo was good back in time… Old times.

I think this is a solid release. It has the looks, the speed and has many of the features needed and a good price.

Here Zopo matches Meizu , adjusted for the clocks, except in AES and that’s good. We’ll see how the GPU does http://browser.primatelabs.com/geekbench3/compare/5753920?baseline=6127811
Would be nice to see results for GFXBench long term performance. Ofc for Zopo , a Benchmark OS System or PCMark comparison with others would make them look good.
Edit new high score with proper score for AES but a bit lower FP score, best case scenario single core can go a little bit higher http://browser.primatelabs.com/geekbench3/compare/6196822?baseline=6127811

  Nope the Edge has a hideous design! Bad would be an upgrade. Easily one of the ugliest phones on the market today.

Many if not most high end phones coming out in 2016 without an SD card slot have a 64GB option. The Zopo Speed 8 has only 32GB – this is 2015 thinking.

Lol @ the score (mind you, this is AnTuTu v6, not v5, so the score is ridiculously low and indicative of poor performance).
- Steven Fox
  April 25, 2016
  This performance is super good, you won`t notice any lag or struggle when playing games or anything else.
  Nobody will notice the difference between Kirin 950,X20 and SD820 if they are not an industry expert.
  Chips have become that good!

no external storage support for a 32GB model is a total let down. I wonder if anyone will ever buy a smartphone that has repeated the same mistake Galaxy S6 made.
