AnTuTu has released their top 10 performance rankings for smartphones for the third quarter of 2014. At the top of the list is the Meizu MX4 which made a statement with its MediaTek processor in holding off other contenders. MediaTek also grabbed the second spot with the Samsung Galaxy Note 4. Despite the prowess of the chip, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon line still powered most of the devices in the top 10.
While the chipsets powering the top devices were limited, the number of manufacturers on the list of the top 10 smartphones was much more varied with 9 different companies landing a device on the list. Only Samsung got two devices on the list with the Galaxy Note 4 and the Galaxy Alpha. AnTuTu does note that Motorola managed to make it back onto the list with the Moto X after going through a brief period where they eschewed high end specs and performance. The other noteworthy trend pointed out by AnTuTu is the rise of Chinese manufacturers who are increasingly producing high-performing devices.
In compiling the list, AnTuTu only considered smartphones that sell in at least 160 countries. In the cases where a device might have more than one processor depending on the market, AnTuTu used the one that scored the best. They also tried to identify and throw out any false entries.
Anyone want to guess what device will claim the top spot the next time around?
