Top 10 Android phones on Antutu in March 2023 | 91mobiles.com

The top 10 Android phones list on the Antutu benchmark has been updated for the month of March, bringing forth a host of key changes and updates from before. As with every month, there are minor score overhauls for a number of devices that have been the mainstay of the list for a while. However, there is a surprise in the form of the complete absence of Taiwanese major ASUS from this list, which has typically been at or near the top of the chart with its ROG Phone 6 series’ top variants. While iQOO was third with its flagship last month, it has also dropped out of the list this month, making way for two new Xiaomi phones in the overall ranking. Here’s how the list has shaped up in March.

Nubia Red Magic 8 Pro+

Leading the top 10 Android phones chart as per Antutu for the second month in a row, Nubia’s Red Magic 8 Pro+ is unfortunately not available in India, and only sells in China. The smartphone is a venerable gaming phone, featuring flat-edged sides, pressure triggers on shoulders for shooter games, and even a ventilating fan with RGB LED lighting to the rear.

The 5G phone was launched in December last year, and features the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, Qualcomm’s latest flagship. Other key specs include 16GB RAM and 1TB storage, a 6.8-inch full HD+ AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate, 50MP triple rear camera with 8K video recording, Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 for wireless connectivity, and a 5,000mAh battery with 165W fast charging that claims 100 percent power in 14 minutes.

Launched at around the same time, the Xiaomi 13 offers nearly all of the essentials of the flagship series, but with key feature differences. The Xiaomi 13 is not available in India, however, and there is no clarity yet on when Xiaomi might launch it in the country.

Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra

Score: 1,241,476 points
Price in India: Rs 1,24,999 onward

The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is the most expensive device in the top 10 Android phones list, which gives it a natural fillip to be among the top performing devices in the market as well. It was launched in India earlier this year, and the company has since claimed that the Galaxy S23 Ultra has sold 70 percent more than what the S22 Ultra did.

Key specs of the device include a 6.8-inch 2K+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC with 1TB storage and 12GB RAM, and four rear cameras with a 200MP primary shooter and 10x periscope telephoto zoom.

The mid variant of the Samsung Galaxy S23+ offers a balance in terms of the overall features, as well as the pricing. Key specs include a 6.6-inch full HD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display with 120Hz refresh rate, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, 50MP triple rear camera, 12MP front camera, and a 4,700mAh battery with 45W fast charging.

Samsung Galaxy S23

Score: 1,192,641 points
Price in India: Rs 74,999 onward

The base variant of Samsung’s 2023 flagship offers an entry point into flagship specs, as well as the company’s latest flagship design language that includes borderless camera units. It has the same display properties but with a smaller screen size of 6.1 inches, and combines this with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. Other key specifications of the rear and front cameras, as well as storage, RAM, fingerprint sensor and wireless connectivity remain the same as that on the S23+, but the vanilla S23 comes with a smaller, 3,900mAh battery with slower, 25W fast charging.

OnePlus 11

Score: 1,150,751 points
Price in India: Rs 56,999 onward

Noted for its premium, flowing rear camera design, the OnePlus 11 offers almost every flagship Android phone feature that you can think of from latest generation devices. OnePlus, like Samsung, has also started building an ecosystem around its flagship phone, which now includes seamless connectivity switching with its earbuds and smart televisions.

Key specs include a 6.7-inch Fluid AMOLED display with Dolby Vision certification and 120Hz refresh rate, Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, 16GB RAM and 512GB storage, 50MP triple rear camera setup with Hasselblad colour calibration, a 16MP front camera, and a 5,000mAh battery with 100W fast charging.

Xiaomi 12T Pro

Score: 1,076,952 points
Price in India: NA

The first in the list that is not powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, the Xiaomi 12T Pro is powered by the mid-generation Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip instead. Most performance differences between the two chips can safely be called incremental at best, although the 12T Pro is not officially available in India.

Other key specs include a 6.67-inch 120Hz AMOLED display, 12GB RAM and 256GB storage, a 200MP triple rear camera setup, 20MP front camera, and a 5,00mAh battery with 120W fast charging.

The 10th entry in the top 10 Android phones list as per Antutu is now more than a year old, but it still packs a fair punch. Key specifications of the device include a 6.73-inch LTPO AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate, an even older Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage, three 50MP rear cameras with 8K videography, a 32MP front camera, and a 4,600mAh battery with 120W fast charging.
