What is the best phone processor in 2024, and which smartphones use it? These are the questions on your mind. I wager that you have no interest in the technical jargon behind the technologies of computer chips; do you? You just want to know which is the most capable this year of our Lord 2024.
The smartphone industry is constantly evolving, and one of the key factors that determines the performance, efficiency, and features of a smartphone is the processor. The processor, also known as the system-on-chip (SoC), is the brain of the device that handles everything from basic tasks to complex computations. In 2024, we have seen some of the most advanced and powerful processors ever created, with new technologies, architectures, and capabilities.
As part of the process of answering these questions, I will include a list ranking the top 20 mobile processors in 2024, based on their AnTuTu and Geekbench scores, which are two of the most popular and reliable benchmarks for measuring the performance of processors. Let’s get started.

The Very Best Phone Processor in 2024
The answer to that question is: MediaTek Dimensity 9300. Ardent fans of Qualcomm Snapdragon processors might be shocked – and some even go into denial – over this pronouncement. But the days are gone when MediaTek processors were always automatically inferior to their Qualcomm equivalents. Quite a number of MediaTek processors now outgun their counterparts from Qualcomm and elsewhere.
The Dimensity 9300 is a powerful processor that was launched by MediaTek in 2023. It is based on a 4 nm process and has eight cores, four of which are Cortex-A78 clocked at 3.25 GHz and four of which are Cortex-A55 clocked at 2.0 GHz. It also has a Mali-G720 MC20 GPU and supports 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, and 120 Hz displays.
The next question is, “Which smartphones use the Dimensity 9300 processor? In answering that question, I shall list them in two categories: those already released at the time of publishing this article in March 2024, and upcoming models.

Waiting for A18 Bionic
There is a pattern with smartphone processors, each year. The best phone processors from Qualcomm, MediaTek, Exynos and other chip makers get released much earlier than Apple’s which arrives on September. So, one of those others holds the title of best phone processor for many months until Apple’s announcement, and then the Apple processor takes the title for the last 3 to 4 months of the year.
Will that pattern repeat itself this year? Will the next Apple phone processor beat the Dimensity 9300? We begin the countdown to September 2024 when we shall find out.
