A relatively reliable Chinese insider, Digital Chat Station, has shared estimated performance figures for Qualcomm's upcoming flagship Snapdragon 875 SoC on Twitter. According to the leak, the new mobile chip is slightly slower than Apple's A13 Bionic in single-core performance, but will just edge out Cupertino's silicon in multi-threaded workloads.

The benchmark of choice for evaluating the SoC was Geekbench 4. Here are the results:
Chip | Single-core | Multi-core |
Snapdragon 875 | ~4900 | ~14000 |
Snapdragon 865 | ~4300 | ~13000 |
A13 Bionic | ~5472 | ~13769 |
If these numbers hold up, the Snapdragon 875 won't offer a significant leap over last year's Apple A13 Bionic, barely beating it in multi-core tests.
However, keep in mind that this tested Snapdragon 875 is likely an engineering sample, meaning final retail performance could easily end up 5-10% higher.
Qualcomm is scheduled to host a major online event for the Snapdragon 875 on December 1, though the first devices powered by the new flagship chip won't debut until 2021.
