Unreleased M4 Macbook Pro S Geekbench Result Leak With Record Breaking Numbers
The MacBook Pro M4 with 4 performance cores and 6 efficiency cores achieves an exceptional 3,864 points in the Geekbench single-core test and 15,288 points in the multi-core test. Apple is running the performance core at 4.41GHz with 16GB of RAM. For your reference, the M4-powered iPad Pro also runs at 4.4GHz, and the A18 Pro on the iPhone 16 Pro/ Pro Max runs at 4.04GHz.
The base M4 MacBook Pro features one extra CPU core and likely uses a fan so the CPU performance is slightly better than the fanless 9-core M4 iPad Pro. On the other side, Qualcomm’s top-tier Snapdragon X Elite SKU (X1E-84-100) can raise the frequency of two cores to 4.2GHz but fails to cross the 3,000 mark in single-core tasks.

However, with 12 CPU cores, the Snapdragon X Elite manages to match Apple M4’s multi-core score but keep in mind that the X Elite draws a lot of power, close to 80W. In terms of performance per watt, Apple M4 is leagues ahead of the competition including Qualcomm, Intel, and AMD.
Recently, a report suggested that Qualcomm is working on its second-gen Snapdragon X2 Elite chipset which would run cooler and offer great CPU performance. However, we must wait for test runs to see if it can beat Apple’s latest M4 chipset.
