Apple A17 Pro GPU has high power consumption: the measured energy consumption ratio is not as good as Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen2

Apple iPhone 15 series reviews are officially released tonight. What everyone is most concerned about is the performance of the A17Pro chip equipped in the iPhone 15 Pro series. Blogger Xiaobai’s actual evaluation showed that in the 1080P Manhattan 3.1 off-screen test scenario, the Apple A17 Pro achieved 204fps and the power consumption was 9.8W.The rival Qualcomm Snapdragon 8Gen2 measured 220fps in the same scenario and the power consumption was 7.5. There is no doubt that Apple A17Pro GPU energy consumption is not as good as Snapdragon 8Gen2.

In the extreme 60 frame mode of "Honor of Kings", the measured power consumption of Apple A17Pro is 3.0W, which has no advantage compared to the Android camp's Snapdragon 8Gen2 and Dimensity 9200+.

Blogger Digital Chat Station pointed out that the energy efficiency performance of Qualcomm Snapdragon 8Gen3 released next month will crush Apple A17Pro in terms of GPU, which is worth looking forward to.

Of course, the advantage of Apple's A17Pro lies in its CPU performance. Its Geekbench6 multi-core score exceeds 7500 points, which is much higher than the Android camp's Snapdragon 8Gen2 and MediaTek Dimensity 9200+.

It is reported that A17Pro adopts a 6-core design, including 2 high-performance cores and 4 high-energy-efficiency cores, integrating 19 billion transistors. The single-thread performance is 10% better than the previous generation, and it is the first to use TSMC’s 3nm process.
