We are at the beginning of the Q4 of 2015, so let’s check back what was able to stand out in the Q3 of the year in terms of Antutu benchmark scores. Here is the list of 10 Android smartphones with highest Antutu scores in the third quarter and you would be fairly surprised for what it has!

From the list, we easily see that the top 5 phones (which are Meizu Pro 5, Samsung Galaxy Note 5, S6 edge Plus, S6 and S6 edge) all use Exynos 7420 SoC chips made by Samsung company. Actually it is not really strange when 4 out of 5 devices are also produced by Samsung and 2 of them (which are Samsung Galaxy Note 5 and S6 edge Plus) are the newest and strongest in the house. We used to think that Note would be powerful enough to beat all other flagships on the market, but it shocked us to know that the first place did not go to the Samsung Galaxy Note 5. Instead, the number one position belonged to a Chinese smartphone, Meizu Pro 5 to be specific.

Congrats, Meizu Pro 5! You deserve the spot with a whopping 76,582 Antutu points in the benchmark tests. You BEAT Galaxy Note5 which scored 72,156 points.Well done!

However, on the other hand, Samsung did a good job, too once having up to 4 out of 10 members joining the TOP 10. It shows that current Samsung flagship products are very quality and beautiful. From 6 to 10, we have Letv Le Max and Le 1 Pro earning the 6th and 7th place, scoring 61,327 and 62,520 points respectively. Those are also impressive results, in fact.

One more thing that surprised us is Sony Xperia Z5 since it stopped at the 7th. We thought it could do more than that. On the contrary, we are quite happy to see the case of Xiaomi Mi Note Pro scoring 57,163 points. Xiaomi Mi Note Pro launch happened many months ago but is still hard to be defeated.

Ending the list, OnePlus 2 ranking with a nice 57,119 is not difficult to understand. 

Though benchmark tests are not always everything we need to judge the real performance of the handsets, the scores do give us some ideas of how strong the machines as well as their chipsets are. For example here, we can say that Exynos 7420 is the winner, for Snapdragon 810 or other kinds of processor do not remain in the TOP 10.

Well, in the end, Meizu Pro 5 has won the Antutu battle to become a good smartphones with the highest score!
