Last week marked the global unveiling of Apple's much-anticipated iPhone 15 series, which features four new models: the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max. As with any new iPhone launch, these devices have attracted considerable media attention.
Initial details about the battery capacity of the iPhone 15 were revealed through a Chinese regulatory database, followed by information on the RAM configurations for the series. The spotlight has now turned to the iPhone 15 Pro Max's AnTuTu benchmark score, shedding light on its robust performance capabilities.
The benchmarking platform AnTuTu has published the scores for the iPhone 15 Pro Max, providing a comprehensive analysis of the device's performance. The iPhone 15 Pro Max's AnTuTu benchmark score totaled 1,641,883 points. This not only surpasses all previous iPhone models but also beats the Red Magic 8 Pro+—the current frontrunner in the Android market—with 1,632,859 points.
The device used for the AnTuTu benchmark featured a high-end configuration of the iPhone 15 Pro Max with 8GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. The smartphone was running iOS 17, ensuring an up-to-date software environment during the tests.
The AnTuTu benchmark offered a detailed score distribution across four major categories: CPU, GPU, Memory, and UX. The scores for the iPhone 15 Pro Max in these departments are as follows:
CPU: 392,643
GPU: 597,734
Memory: 306,164
UX: 345,342
For context, here is how the iPhone 14 Pro Max fared in the AnTuTu benchmarks:
CPU: 358,964
GPU: 466,281
Memory: 233,925
UX: 406,389
Total: 1,465,559
Powering the iPhone 15 Pro Max is the new A17 Pro chipset, which has markedly outperformed its predecessor, the A16 Bionic. Specifically, the A17 Pro outshines the A16 Bionic in all performance categories. The A17 Pro chipset is embedded with 19 billion transistors and comprises six CPU cores: two dedicated to performance and four focused on energy efficiency.
While the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max both utilize the A17 Pro chipset, the base models—the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus—operate on the older A16 Bionic processor.
the iPhone 15 Pro Max has set new benchmarks in performance, as demonstrated by its impressive AnTuTu benchmark scores. With its high-end hardware specifications, including 8GB RAM and 1TB storage, and running on the latest iOS 17 version, this device promises to be a trendsetter in the smartphone market.
