The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 launched with an unusual CPU configuration: 1 prime core, 2+2 performance and 3 efficiency cores. A Geekbench 6.1.0 scorecard has just surfaced and it shows that Qualcomm is ditching an efficiency core to add an extra performance core, and that the performance cores will run at different speeds.

It has 1x main core at 3.30GHz, then three performance cores at 3.15GHz, joined by two more running at a lower frequency of 2.96GHz, and finally two performance cores at 2.27 GHz. Here is a comparison table:

Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 (speculative)Snapdragon 8 Gen 2
First1 Cortex-X4 at 3.30GHz1 Cortex-X3 @ 3.2GHz*
Performance 13 Cortex-A7xx at 3.15GHz2 Cortex-A715 at 2.8GHz
Performance 22 Cortex-A7xx at 2.96GHz2 Cortex-A710 at 2.8GHz
Efficiency2 Cortex-A5xx at 2.27GHz3 Cortex-A510 at 2.0GHz
* 3.36 GHz prime cores on “for Galaxy” and 8+ Gen 2 chips

Note that while the performance cores on the 8 Gen 2 were different (A715 and A710), they ran at the same frequency. The 8 Gen 3 runs the two clusters at different frequencies, it is not yet known if they have different cores.
