I was pretty impressed when I*benchmarked MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400 (https://www.androidauthority.com/dimensity-9400-benchmarks-3501443/) processor inside the new OPPO Find X8 Pro (https://www.androidauthority.com/oppo-find-x8-pro-review-3503514/). While it might not quite top the tables, it’s certainly no slouch, and our stress test results suggest plenty of thermal headroom to make it a brilliant choice for those protracted gaming sessions. But can it keep up with the mighty Snapdragon when it comes to real-world games? I grabbed the new flagship and a bunch of the most popular Android titles to see how the phone fairs in the real world.

I have the high-performing ASUS ROG Phone 9 Pro (https://www.androidauthority.com/asus-rog-phone-9-pro-review-3496879/) gaming phone, which packs a powerhouse Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, to compare against, along with the *Google Pixel 8 Pro (https://www.androidauthority.com/google-pixel-8-pro-review-3374117/) — with a considerably more mid-range GPU implementation. I’ve also included the ASUS Zenfone 11 Ultra with its Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor as an example of last-gen performance. Before we get into the results, however, let’s take a look at some benchmarks to see where we would expect things to stand.
