Honor Win2 shows up on Geekbench confirming its chipset

Honor Win2 Surfaces on Geekbench: Flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 Confirmed

Anticipation is building for Honor's upcoming Win2 series, which is set to debut on October 21. Recent leaks from a prominent tipster on X have provided the first look at the device's potential performance through early Geekbench benchmark results. These listings, associated with the model number BRM-AN00, confirm that the Honor Win2 will be powered by the formidable Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 chipset, paired with a robust 16GB of RAM in the tested prototype.

The Geekbench 6.7.1 scores offer a compelling glimpse into the Win2's processing power. The handset achieved an impressive 4,141 in single-core performance and a remarkable 11,514 in multi-core performance. Furthermore, a separate Geekbench 6 GPU run showcased a strong graphics capability with a score of 34,695, indicating excellent potential for gaming and demanding applications.

Beyond raw power, the Honor Win2 is expected to ship with the very latest software innovations. Users can look forward to Android 17 out of the box, seamlessly integrated with Honor’s custom user interface, MagicOS 11, promising a smooth and feature-rich experience from day one.

This chipset upgrade represents a significant leap from its predecessor. The original Honor Win series launched featuring the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC, making the transition to the Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 for the Win2 a logical and expected progression for its flagship successor. While the standard Win2's core has been revealed, industry observers are keen to discover whether the rumored Honor Win2 RT variant will also adopt the new Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 or opt for last year's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5.
