New flagship OnePlus phone impresses in latest AnTuTu benchmark ranking

AnTuTu has published its latest flagship ranking, and as always, there are ten devices on the list. These have achieved the highest average benchmark score in March 2026, and they have also met certain criteria required to get into this monthly ranking.

Just like last time, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 has dominated the list, but the interesting bit is that the newly launched OnePlus 15T has managed to secure the second spot. At the top, there's the iQOO 15 Ultra with an average benchmark score of 4,174,911.

The newly launched OnePlus 15T, on the other hand, secured second place with an average of 4,164,561 points, very close to the first phone on the list. This is quite the feat for this compact, as the non-T variant placed last on the list.

Interestingly, both the OnePlus 15T (available on TradingShenzhen) and its non-T variant are powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. The former managed to get better scores, possibly for its optimized cooling setup and performance-focused power profile.

It's worth noting that these monthly rankings don't stay the same each month, as AnTuTu considers some key criteria to make these lists. Another thing to note is that synthetic benchmarks don't tell the whole story. Real-world performance, the UI, camera performance, and battery life should also be considered before making a purchase decision.
