AnTuTu’s latest Android performance rankings for April are in, and not much has changed from last month. The same phones are at the top with iQOO still leading the pack with iQOO 15 Ultra.
The iQOO 15 Ultra is the best performing phone for April with a score of 4,126,940. Close behind is the iQOO 15 with 4,102,621. Both devices rely on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip with 16GB RAM and 1TB storage, and are tuned aggressively for performance with a good thermal management.
Right behind them is the Red Magic 11 Pro+, scoring 4,098,742. It uses the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 too, but has 24GB RAM paired with 1TB storage.
What stands out more broadly is the chipset split. Out of the top ten Android phones this month, nine are powered by the Snapdragon 8 Ultra Gen5. The only exception is the OnePlus Ace 6 Ultra, which uses MediaTek’s Dimensity 9500 and ranks sixth in the chart.
Compared to March, the overall structure hasn’t changed dramatically. The iQOO 15 Ultra was already in first place then, even posting a slightly higher score of 4,174,911. Devices like the Red Magic 11 Pro+ and iQOO 15 were also present in the upper tier, though their positions have adjusted slightly.
AnTuTu mid-range phones and tablets ranking for April
The mid-range, or what AnTuTu classifies as “sub-flagship,” tells a different story. Here, MediaTek has a stronger foothold. The iQOO Z11 leads this category with 2,323,047 points, powered by the Dimensity 8500. It’s followed by the Honor Power2 and Oppo K15 Pro, both also running on Dimensity chips.
On the tablet side, performance is increasingly mirroring flagship phones. The Vivo Pad 6 Pro takes the top spot with a score of 4,095,813. It’s followed by the Legion Tablet Y700 5th Generation and the Oppo Pad 5 Pro. All three use the flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip.
Looking back at March, the tablet category has seen a small shift at the top, with Lenovo’s Legion tablet previously holding first place. Now, Vivo has moved ahead, though the overall performance range remains largely similar.
A couple of new flagship phones, including the iQOO 15T, are expected to hit the Chinese market this month. It is speculated that it may rival the likes of the OnePlus Ace 6 Ultra and Redmi K90 Max in its home market. Recently, tipster Digital Chat Station shared key details about the iQOO 15T, and now a new leak has emerged, revealing a few more details about it.

iQOO 15T key specs tipped
Starting from the front, the iQOO 15T will reportedly pack a massive 6.82-inch AMOLED panel delivering a 2K resolution along with a 144Hz refresh rate. Like its rivals, the 15T is said to feature the Dimensity 9500 chipset.
It is no slouch in the battery department, as it is said to pack a huge 8,000mAh battery. While it is expected to support 100W wired charging, it will reportedly lack wireless charging.
For photography, it will feature a 200-megapixel Samsung HP5 primary camera. However, details about its other rear cameras remain under wraps. The handset is also said to feature a metal frame.
Apart from this, iQOO is also said to be working on a new Neo 11 series phone for the Chinese market. While its specifications are yet to be revealed, it is said to be an incremental upgrade over the existing model.
Apart from these phones, iQOO is also expected to announce a flagship tablet called the iQOO Pad 6 Pro. This device is said to feature a 13.2-inch LCD screen with support for 4K resolution, a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5chip, 16GB of RAM, 612GB of storage, and a 13,000mAh battery with 90W fast charging support. It may come in three shades: Man Dao, Grey Crystal, and Silver Wing.

Design and Display
Build and Feel
The Oppo Find X9s Pro leans toward a compact flagship approach with a refined, premium build and strong IP ratings, making it feel more manageable and comfortable for daily use. The iQOO 15, on the other hand, takes a bolder route with a larger footprint, premium materials, and even a color-changing rear panel option that adds visual flair. Both devices offer solid durability, but the iQOO feels more experimental, while the Oppo feels more polished and practical.
Display Quality
The Oppo features a sharp LTPO AMOLED panel with a 144Hz refresh rate and good peak brightness, delivering smooth visuals and balanced colors. However, the iQOO 15 pushes things further with higher resolution, significantly higher peak brightness, and support for Dolby Vision and advanced HDR formats. This results in a more immersive and vibrant viewing experience, especially for streaming and gaming.
Verdict
The Oppo Find X9s Pro is better suited for those who prefer a compact, balanced flagship feel. The iQOO 15 stands out for display excellence and visual impact, making it the more immersive option overall.
Specifications Including Battery
Performance
The Oppo Find X9s Pro runs on the Dimensity 9500, delivering flagship-level performance with strong efficiency and smooth multitasking. It feels fast and reliable for most users. The iQOO 15, powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, clearly targets peak performance with higher clock speeds and a more powerful GPU. This translates into better sustained gaming performance and future-proofing. The difference is noticeable under heavy workloads, where the iQOO pulls ahead.
Battery and Charging
Both phones pack large silicon-carbon batteries, but Oppo slightly edges ahead in capacity. Still, iQOO compensates with faster 100W wired charging and useful features like bypass charging, which is especially beneficial for gamers. Oppo’s wireless charging is faster, making it more convenient for mixed usage. Each takes a different approach—one prioritizes endurance, the other flexibility and speed.
Verdict
The iQOO 15 is the stronger performer with better raw power and charging versatility. The Oppo Find X9s Pro remains a solid choice for balanced performance and slightly better battery endurance.
Camera
Main and Secondary Lenses
The Oppo Find X9s Pro takes a bold approach with dual 200MP sensors, focusing heavily on detail, zoom clarity, and advanced imaging features like Hasselblad tuning. It delivers a more “flagship camera-first” experience with strong computational photography. The iQOO 15 uses a triple 50MP setup with a periscope lens, offering consistent performance across all lenses. While it may not match Oppo’s sheer resolution, it provides reliable color balance and versatility. Oppo feels more experimental and premium, while iQOO feels controlled and consistent.
Selfie Camera
Both devices feature similar 32MP selfie cameras with 4K video support. The output is sharp and usable in most lighting conditions, with minimal difference between the two. Oppo’s tuning may lean slightly toward richer tones, while iQOO keeps things more neutral.
Verdict
The Oppo Find X9s Pro is the better choice for those who prioritize high-resolution photography and advanced camera features. The iQOO 15 delivers dependable, all-round camera performance without pushing extremes.
Pricing
The Oppo Find X9s Pro is priced at around $870 (₹73,000), while the iQOO 15 comes in at about $600 (₹73,000). Despite the large gap in USD pricing, both devices fall into a similar price bracket in India due to regional pricing differences, taxes, and market strategies. This makes the comparison more interesting, as buyers in India are essentially choosing between two differently positioned flagships at the same cost.
Value for Money
At this price point, the iQOO 15 offers exceptional value with a more powerful chipset, superior display, and faster charging. It feels like a performance-focused flagship at a competitive price. The Oppo Find X9s Pro justifies its pricing through premium camera hardware, compact design, and a more refined overall experience. It appeals more to users who prioritize photography and usability over raw specs.
Verdict
The iQOO 15 delivers better value on paper, especially for performance-focused users. The Oppo Find X9s Pro feels worth it for those who prioritize camera innovation and a more balanced flagship experience.
Disclaimer: While the iQOO 15 and OPPO Find X9s Pro share an identical base launch price of ₹72999 in India, their market positioning differs. The iQOO 15 is frequently available at a lower effective price through aggressive bank offers and discounts, whereas the OPPO Find X9s Pro often maintains its premium pricing and scales significantly higher for top-tier storage variants. Actual prices may vary based on retailer, current promotions, and specific model configurations.
Conclusion
Oppo Find X9s Pro stands out with its dual 200MP camera system, Hasselblad enhancements, and compact flagship approach. It feels like a device designed for photography enthusiasts who also want a manageable form factor. The iQOO 15, meanwhile, focuses on raw power, next-gen display technology, and gamer-friendly features like bypass charging. Its feature set feels more aggressive and performance-driven.
Verdict
iQOO 15 is the better choice for most users, offering stronger performance, a superior display, and better overall value at the same ₹73K price point. The Oppo Find X9s Pro still stands out for its advanced camera system and more refined, compact feel, but unless photography is the top priority, the iQOO 15 makes more sense as a complete and future-proof flagship.

The global version of the iQOO Z11 has now surfaced on its first benchmark, and it looks a bit different from the one that launched in China.
A new Geekbench listing for the device, carrying the model number I2512, confirms that the phone will run on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 globally. Its Chinese counterpart uses a MediaTek Dimensity 8500 chip instead.
What the Geekbench listing reveals
The listing confirms the chip identity through the CPU and GPU combo. The chipset is built around an octa-core CPU configuration consisting:
1 core clocked at 2.71GHz
3 cores at 2.40GHz
4 cores at 1.80GHz
Graphics duties are handled by the Adreno 810 GPU, paired with 12GB of RAM. The device is also listed as running Android 16.
In terms of raw numbers, the phone posts a single-core score of 1,214 and a multi-core score of 3,091 on Geekbench.
Despite the chipset, the global model may share the same battery and charging specs. The Chinese Z11 packs a massive 9,020mAh unit. It also supports 90W wired charging and includes features like reverse charging.
Certifications hint at a wider launch
The global iQOO Z11 has already appeared on multiple certification platforms, including Indonesia’s SDPPI and Thailand’s NBTC. These are usually early signs that a launch isn’t too far off.
iQOO Z11 (China)
What’s missing, at least for now, is any listing in India. That could mean a delayed rollout, or simply that iQOO is prioritizing other devices first. There’s also the possibility that the company is spacing out releases to avoid overlap with upcoming Vivo-branded phones.
Either way, the Geekbench adds another piece to the puzzle. The global iQOO Z11 is on the way. It just might not be the same phone that debuted in China.
