Things are getting quite heated up for the OnePlus 12. Just recently, the company has confirmed the powerful camera setup of the device. We also saw the design and learned the display details from the company’s recent announcements. Now, it’s time for the device to showcase its raw performance.
It’s already confirmed that OnePlus 12 will be featuring the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. While we already know what the performance of this chipset is like, different manufacturers tune the chipset differently. And it seems OnePlus has nailed it in terms of optimizing the chipset. The device now holds the number 1 spot in AnTuTu benchmarking rankings, way ahead of the current Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 devices.
What’s Making OnePlus 12 Score Better?
OnePlus 12 has achieved an overall score of 2,333,033 points on the AnTuTu benchmark. This is the highest score any Android smartphone with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 has achieved. And there are several reasons why the other devices with the same chipset haven’t achieved such a high score on the benchmarking tool yet.
Collaboration With Key Players
First, the President of OnePlus in China, Li Jie, said that the company collaborated with chipmakers, game developers, and manufacturers for the OnePlus 12. This collaboration allowed the smartphone to enjoy next-level performance optimization.
Clean and Performance-focused UI
Hardware-level optimizations are one thing, and software-level is another. And OnePlus 12 has nailed it in this regard as well. The device incorporates a clean user interface, which results in fairly low overhead on memory and CPU resources. These free resources make the smartphone offer better performance in resource-intensive tools such as AnTuTu.

Top-Notch Specs of OnePlus 12
Aside from all these optimizations, the OnePlus 12 has an impressive set of specs. And no, it’s not just the latest and greatest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. Additionally, it packs up to 24 GB of LPDDR5X RAM. Also, as we’ve previously reported, the 8 Gen 3 can get pretty inefficient at extreme loads. OnePlus took care of this with a vapor chamber.
But Benchmark Results Aren’t Everything
It’s pretty impressive to see the OnePlus 12 achieve such a great score on the AnTuTu benchmarking tool. These types of tools are great for getting an idea of how well an Android smartphone can perform. But they don’t represent real-life performance. Also, they can’t offer you a proper idea of sustained performance.
As for real-life performance, it’s all about how the smartphone can perform while carrying out regular tasks. And for the sustained performance test, the reliable option is to play a very resource-intensive game. For example, Genshin Impact. That game is known to put even the most capable chipsets to their knees.
But, yes, it’s true that things are looking quite good for OnePlus 12. It even has a very capable camera setup. We’ve already shared some samples captured by the device, which you can check out at this link. Nonetheless, we just need to wait for the device to get to more hands to get a complete idea of what it can bring to the table.
