Same A17 Pro 3nm chip with hardware ray tracing, 8GB RAM and NVMe storage as the Pro Max. Apple Intelligence on iOS 18+ requires this chip. Launch overheating issues real but largely fixed via iOS 17.0.3.

Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 paired with 12-16GB LPDDR5X Ultra Pro RAM delivers flagship synthetic scores — Notebookcheck recorded Geekbench multi-core 10,976 and 3DMark Wild Life Unlimited 29,901, on par with the larger Xiaomi 17 and Honor Magic8 Pro Air. The problem is sustained: in the 3DMark Wild Life stress test the GPU drops over 50% and the back of the phone hits 50 °C, which both Notebookcheck and SuperSaf flag as a deal-breaker for long gaming sessions.
