Since its debut last month, Apple's latest mobile chipset, the A16 Bionic, has been put through a slew of tests, with CPU benchmarks showing its supremacy. The latest performance-testing runs evaluates the A16 Bionic's GPU, in an attempt to see how much better it is than its predecessor and rivals.
As tested by Golden Reviewer, the A16 Bionic earns a score of 3359 on 3DMark's WildLife Extreme test, with an efficiency of 441.1. While the A16 bests every other tested SoC in raw performance, the Dimensity 9000 and Dimensity 8100 are both more efficient. Compared to the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, the A16 Bionic looks to be about 20% more powerful and 10% more efficient. Versus the A15 Bionic, the newer chipset is 5% more powerful but up to 20% more efficient.
Those numbers are similar on GFXBench 3.1's 1080p off-screen and Aztec Vulkan/Metal 1440p tests. Across those two tests, the A16 Bionic cements its position as the most powerful mobile chipset GPU-wise. It slightly outperforms the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 and A15 Bionic, and is more efficient as well.
While the A16 Bionic handily outperforms the A15 Bionic in the CPU department, the chipset on the iPhone 14 Pro models only offers a slight improvement in raw GPU performance. It is more efficient, however. iPhone 13 series owners seeking significantly improved gaming performance may be better served waiting for the iPhone 15 series.

For Apple A16, GPU performance improvement may be marginal, but some better efficiency is still welcomed. And before the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 is available, A16 is still hands down the fastest mobile SoC. pic.twitter.com/AbCHAgnTWg
