AnTuTu Releases September Rankings: Xiaomi Leads the Flagship and Tablet Categories

AnTuTu has released its September 2026 performance rankings, with Xiaomi taking the top spots in both the flagship smartphone and Android tablet categories. The Xiaomi 18 Fold led the smartphone chart, while the Xiaomi Pad 9 Pro Max secured first place among tablets.

The rankings are based on average AnTuTu V12 benchmark scores collected in China throughout September. These figures represent monthly averages rather than the highest scores achieved by individual devices. <Cite refs={[“turn746580search0″,”turn746580search1”]}/>

Xiaomi 18 Fold Tops the Flagship Rankings

The Xiaomi 18 Fold claimed first place in the flagship smartphone category with an average score of 4,620,886 points. The device is powered by Xiaomi’s own XRing O3 chipset, putting it ahead of several competitors equipped with Qualcomm’s latest high-end processors.

The iQOO 16 finished in second place with an average of 4,449,925 points, followed by the Honor Magic9 Pro Max with 4,435,489 points. Xiaomi also secured another position near the top of the chart with the Xiaomi 18 Pro Max, which ranked fourth.

The Oppo Find X10 Pro Max, nubia RedMagic 11S Pro+, iQOO 15 Ultra, Honor Win, Xiaomi 18 Pro and Realme GT 8 Pro completed the top ten.

The results highlight Xiaomi’s growing presence in the premium Android market, particularly through its investment in proprietary chip technology. However, benchmark rankings alone do not determine overall smartphone quality, as factors such as battery life, camera performance, software optimisation and sustained gaming performance also matter. <Cite refs={[“turn746580search0″,”turn746580search3”]}/>

Xiaomi Pad 9 Pro Max Dominates the Tablet Category

Xiaomi also took the lead in the Android tablet rankings, with the Xiaomi Pad 9 Pro Max recording an average score of 5,233,432 points.

The tablet finished ahead of the iQOO Pad Ultra, which achieved 4,621,376 points, and the RedMagic Gaming Tablet 5 Pro, which placed third with 4,379,977 points.

Other devices appearing in the top ten included models from Lenovo’s Legion series, the vivo Pad lineup, the Honor MagicPad range, the OnePlus Pad family and Oppo’s Pad series.

The Pad 9 Pro Max’s result further demonstrates the performance potential of Xiaomi’s XRing O3 platform. Its large tablet design may also provide more room for cooling than a compact smartphone, although benchmark scores alone cannot establish how much that contributes to the final result. <Cite refs={[“turn746580search0″,”turn746580search4”]}/>

Oppo Leads the Mid-Range Smartphone Segment

While Xiaomi dominated the flagship and tablet categories, Oppo took the top position in the mid-range smartphone rankings.

The Oppo Reno15 Pro recorded an average score of 2,306,256 points, finishing ahead of the iQOO Z11 and Oppo Reno15. The Oppo Reno16 also appeared among the leading devices, followed by models from Xiaomi, Realme and other manufacturers.

The results show that competition remains strong across different price segments, with manufacturers seeking to balance processing power, efficiency and overall device performance. <Cite refs={[“turn746580search0″,”turn746580search5”]}/>

What the AnTuTu Rankings Actually Mean

AnTuTu’s September rankings provide a useful snapshot of Android device performance under the benchmark’s testing conditions. However, the figures are based on results collected in China during a specific period and should not be interpreted as a universal ranking of every device available worldwide.

The scores also reflect performance across submitted benchmark runs, rather than guaranteeing identical results for every retail unit. Temperature, software versions and device configuration can affect benchmark performance.

For consumers, the rankings offer an indication of raw processing capability, but real-world reviews remain important when comparing gaming performance, thermal management, battery endurance and everyday usability.

With the Xiaomi 18 Fold and Xiaomi Pad 9 Pro Max leading their respective categories, Xiaomi has delivered a strong showing in AnTuTu’s September 2026 results. Oppo’s mid-range victory adds another dimension to a ranking that illustrates the continuing competition among Android manufacturers.
