Apple iPhone 18 Pro Max appeared on the Geekbench benchmark website. It was first equipped with the A20 Pro processor, with a single-core score of 4727 points, a multi-core score of 12424 points, and a GPU score of 64069 points.
Judging from the running scores, the most eye-catching thing is the single-core and GPU performance. Among them, the single-core performance refreshed the mobile phone CPU record, significantly surpassing the Android camp. The GPU running score is also very powerful, even surpassing the M4 processor of the iPad Pro. This also means that the A20 Pro has strong performance at the desktop platform level.
It is reported that the A20 Pro is built using the latest 2nm process. The CPU is a 6-core design, including 2 super performance cores and 4 efficiency cores, and integrates a 7-core GPU.




Apple said that the packaging method of the A20 Pro draws on the M series processor design, and its performance and energy efficiency have reached new highs in the iPhone. Equipped with a new generation of VC vapor chamber cooling technology, its performance is up to 40% higher than that of the iPhone 17 Pro, and it can maintain stable performance even when playing popular games for a long time. In addition, A20 Pro is also equipped with a new dual 16-core neural network engine, which directly doubles the speed of AI smart computing on the device.
At the same time, iPhone 18 Pro Max is equipped with a new generation of C2 data chip for the first time, which uses powerful AI computing power to improve the connection quality and stability of mobile networks. In addition, in certain countries or regions, its upload speed is increased by up to 50% compared to C1X, while power consumption is further reduced.
Thanks to the energy efficiency improvements brought by the 2nm process, the battery life of iPhone 18 Pro Max has been greatly improved, and the video playback time can be up to 43 hours, which is an additional 6 hours compared to iPhone 17 Pro Max.
Due to the simultaneous improvement of battery capacity and energy efficiency, it can be used for up to 29 hours after a full charge, allowing users to watch TV series, play games and browse the web for a long time.
