Infinix GT 30 Pro disappointed in performance tests on Geekbench
By ForGeeks The first test results of the Infinix GT 30 Pro, the next-generation “gaming” smartphone from the performance-focused brand, have surfaced online. However, if you were expecting a serious boost over the Infinix GT 20 Pro, the news from Geekbench may dampen your enthusiasm a bit: the results were quite modest and don’t show a significant leap forward. The smartphone with the model number X6873, previously spotted in the IMEI database, is now in the Geekbench database – and the numbers speak for themselves.
Performance: a step forward – and a step back
- 1204 points in the single-core test
- 4057 points in the multi-core test
In comparison, last year’s GT 20 Pro, equipped with the Dimensity 8200 Ultimate chip, scored 1248 points in the single-core test and 3672 in the multi-core test. So, while the GT 30 Pro gains a bit in multithreading, it falls behind its predecessor in single-core performance, which seems odd for a next-generation smartphone.
The GT 30 Pro is expected to get Dimensity 8350 chip with 1×3.35GHz + 3×3.2GHz + 4×2.2GHz architecture. However, judging by the current results, system optimization is not yet complete, and the final version may show a better result.
Screen, memory and camera: expected improvements
Despite the modest CPU performance, hardware improvements are still there. According to the leaks, the Infinix GT 30 Pro will get:
- A 1.5K resolution screen – a notable upgrade over the 1080p of the GT 20 Pro
- UFS 4.0 storage – faster than the predecessor’s UFS 3.1
- A 8 MP ultra-wide-angle camera, which is already a step up from the 2 MP macro and depth sensor in the GT 20 Pro
Android 15 out of the box
A nice bonus: The GT 30 Pro will ship with Android 15 right out of the box, making it one of the first smartphones with this OS version.
We can’t judge the final performance definitively at this point – the model may be in the testing phase, and the manufacturer hasn’t implemented all the optimizations yet. Nevertheless, given the expectations for the “Pro”-model, the first results look more restrained than inspiring.
