Snizzbar, 23 Mar 2026Most other websites have the 8500 doing ~2.2mil Antutu and approx. 1700/6600 in Geekbench, so ... moreMy X7 Pro has 1591 Single-Core Score, and 6380 Multi-Core Score.
The GSMArena score doesn't make sense, especially when the X8 Pro is clocked 150-200mhz higher on 4 cores, and throttles less because of the aluminum frame.
They probably tested when it either had less than 20% battery left, didn't remove the battery optimization, didn't run it with game turbo or ultimate mode, didn't let it cool down, or let something run in the background.
With all the above plausible, and that it scored less in their Own X7 Pro test should probably warrant a new run.

It fits your requirements perfectly and is under €500, even for the 12gb/512gb variant.
Enjoy that 2+1yr warranty.
The Xiaomi 15T has smaller battery (5500mAh vs 8500mAh), slower charging (67W vs 100W), slower processor (2M Antutu vs 2.8M Antutu) but sports a proper triple camera setup.
The Realme GT7 is another good option with more balanced specs versus the other two.

Most other websites have the 8500 doing ~2.2mil Antutu and approx. 1700/6600 in Geekbench, so I wonder why there was such a dip in the GSMArena performance tests?

Not every country has all the options available.
Are you comfortable importing?

Nanoreview has the Dimensity 8500 at 2.4mil Antutu and 1700/6700 Geekbench - I wonder why there's such a big difference?

I like to replace my Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G, with bigger display (6,67 for the RN12P), 6,75 inch and more, 4k60 recording (with OIS), for insane gaming performance (AnTuTu 2,5m+ and more), without too expansive (under 500-600€), which phone will be perfect?
