Ulefone Note 16 Pro Review

Performance

Ulefone Note 16 Pro is based on the 12nm Unisoc Tiger T606 system-on-chip. It houses an octa-core CPU with two Cortex-A75 cores clocked at 1.6 GHz and six Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 1.4 GHz. A 650MHz single-core ARM Mali-G57 MP1 GPU handles the graphics department. There are 4GB or 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM clocked at 1600 MHz and 128GB or 256GB of UFS storage onboard. The latter can be expanded via a microSD card. We are reviewing an 8GB+256GB version. Of the 256GB total built-in memory, 248GB are available to the user. Our Ulefone Note 16 Pro review unit scored 274,809 points on AnTuTu 10 and 237,709 points on AnTuTu 9. Compared to other smartphones we've tested, the AnTuTu 9 result is comparable to the one achieved by models based on the MediaTek Helio G85 and Helio P60 chipsets. The single-core and multi-core Geekbench 5 results show a performance that's in the range of smartphones based again on chipsets by MediaTek such as Helio G85, Helio P70, and Helio P60. The PCMark Work 3.0 result is higher than the one of smartphones based on a Snapdragon 835, Helio G85, Gelio G90, and other similar chipsets.
