The above chart is the performance ranking list ofMay for iOS devices as measured by the average Antutu score, from which wecan see that in general, the ranking of iOS devices is stable since there areno new iOS models announced recently.

iPad Pro (10.5-inch) took the lead with an average Antutuscore of 275,393 points. It is powered by A10X Fusion processor and has an 3Dscore of over 100, 000 points, CPU score of over 115,000 points and UX score ofabout 48,000 points, with the overall score outperforming the second-rankediPhone X by about 40,000 points.

With regard to iPad Pro (12.9-inch), which is also powered by A10XFusion processor, the number of its scores reported to Antutudatabase didn’t reach our statistical requirement, therefore it is not present on theabove list.

iPhone X ranked second with an average Antutu score of 238,077points thanks to the excellent performance of A11 processor. It has an 3D scoreof 95,000 points, CPU score of 86,000 points, UX score of 49,000 points. Itsstrong performance and the symbolic notch design make it one of the best-selling apple devices of the first halfof 2018.

At the third and fourth spots there are iPhone 8 Plus andiPhone 8 which scored 231,861 points and 223,694 points respectively. LikeiPhone X, these two models are also powered by A11 processor. The excellent performance, plus the inherent advantagesof iOS system and the promotion of third-party e-commerce platforms for iPhone8 series make these two models the first choices for many Apple fans.

At the bottom of the list is iPhone SEwhich gained an average Antutu score of 150266. Actually, the average scores ofiPhone SE and iPhone 6 are very close. We speculate that one of the reason whyiPhone SE managed to rank among the Top 10 instead of iPhone 6 is that iPhone 6was deeply involved in the iPhone slowdown scandal.

With the release of iOS 12, some older Apple devicesincluding iPhone 5s, iPhone 6 series and iPhone SE might see a performanceincrease, and once iOS 12 is officially released, there will be some changes inthe ranking list of iOS devices.

The above data reflects the changes of the performance ofiOS devices for May 2018. For more information about the ranking list, pleasevisit Antutu official website or download AnTuTu Benchmark and check in themenu of “Ranking”.
