Today, we are excited to launch a new reference page on PhoneArena where you can easily compare multiple phones and see the difference in their performance benchmarks.
Curious to learn which phone that has the best CPU performance? Or are you wondering which among a few phones is the best for gaming? You can find the answer to these questions in our new performance benchmark reference page.
You can immediately notice that the iPhone ranks highest in single-core CPU performance, but its multi-core score is below that of the Galaxy S25 Ultra and OnePlus 13.
Interestingly, the Pixel 9 Pro XL with its Tensor G4 processor ranks way below the other three.
Additionally, gamers should look closer at the 3D Mark Wildlife Extreme scores. This 20 minute test shows you the graphics performance in the beginning of the test (the "high" score), but also shows you how much the performance drops after throttling (the "low" score).
And again, we notice something interesting — the Pixel 9 Pro XL is nowhere nearly as powerful as the other three for gaming.

You can compare all sorts of devices from difference price classes
The world doesn't revolve only around flagships, though.
If you are on a tighter budget, you might be wondering about the performance difference between a flagship, a mid-range and a budget phone.
In the Samsung realm, you have devices as cheap as the Galaxy A16 ($200) to the mid-range Galaxy A56 ($500) to the flagship Galaxy S25 Plus and Ultra versions ($1,000 and more). You can easily add them to this table and see the exact difference in performance and as you can see there are very clear gaps between those phones.
The world is your oyster with this reference page — you can compare iPhones to Galaxy, the latest Xiaomi phones to their Oppo and Vivo rivals, and budget phones to flagship devices.

We ourselves love having this quick and easy page to compare devices, and we hope you enjoy it too.
We will be adding more benchmark scores to give you a fuller picture in the future, so let us know: are there specific benchmarks you want to see and do you like this new reference page?
