Apple A18 Pro vs Google Tensor G6

VS

Performance score

Apple A18 Pro 2024 · 6/6 cores/threads
32.64
Google Tensor G6 2026 · 7/7 cores/threads
33.84 +4%

Google Tensor G6 is 4% faster than Apple A18 Pro by our estimate.

The score is our own estimate from the specs (cores, threads, clocks, architecture generation), not a benchmark run. 100 = the fastest CPU in our database. A phone without a fan drops its clocks under long load, so in long tasks (hours of gaming, video) it will be slower than the number shows.

Real tests

What the test measures

Blender is a popular free 3D graphics program. The test makes the device render three ready-made 3D scenes (light, shadows, reflections) and counts how many render passes it finishes per minute. The higher the number, the faster the device handles heavy work: 3D, video editing, photo processing. On a CPU the test loads all cores at once, so it shows the chip's full power; on a graphics card it shows its compute strength.
