Red Magic 11S Pro+ Leads AnTuTu May 2026 Rankings With Record-Breaking Benchmark Score
The Red Magic 11S Pro+ has secured the top position in AnTuTu’s Android flagship rankings for May 2026, posting a score of 4,171,821 points. The result marks the highest benchmark score recorded by any Android flagship in the monthly rankings and highlights the growing focus on raw performance among premium smartphone makers.
The latest rankings are significant because they arrive during a period when flagship launches have slowed and component costs remain elevated. Despite that, brands continue to push hardware limits, with Qualcomm-powered devices dominating the chart and gaming-focused phones gaining more visibility.
Red Magic 11S Pro+ Sets the Pace
At the center of the rankings is the Red Magic 11S Pro+, a gaming-oriented flagship powered by the overclocked Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 Leading Edition chipset. The device recently debuted in China and is expected to reach global markets as the Red Magic 11S Pro.
Beyond its benchmark performance, the phone features a 144Hz AMOLED display with peak brightness rated at 1,800 nits. Reports also indicate a 7,500mAh battery paired with 80W fast charging, positioning it among the largest battery-equipped flagship phones currently available.
Performance Hardware Drives the Rankings
The May 2026 chart shows a clear trend. Nine of the top ten devices use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 platform, while only the Realme GT8 Pro relies on MediaTek’s Dimensity 9500 processor.
The iQOO 15 Ultra finished second with 4,144,802 points, followed by the Vivo X300 Ultra Satellite Communication Edition at 4,103,004. Other devices in the top ten include the iQOO 15, Red Magic 11 Pro+, Oppo Find X9 Ultra Satellite Communication Edition, Honor WIN, iQOO 15T, and Honor Magic 8 Pro.
Real-World Impact
For users focused on gaming, multitasking, and sustained high-performance workloads, benchmark results like these offer insight into processing power and thermal management. The Red Magic 11S Pro+ has also been reported to maintain strong frame-rate stability in demanding mobile games, an area that matters as much as peak benchmark numbers.
Market Position and Limitations
The rankings underline Vivo and iQOO’s strong presence in the premium Android segment, with four combined entries. Xiaomi, a regular contender in previous months, did not place a device in the May top ten.
While the Red Magic 11S Pro+ leads in benchmark performance, its appeal remains centered on power users and gamers. Features such as advanced camera systems and broader software ecosystems may still influence buying decisions when compared with flagship rivals from Vivo, Oppo, Honor, and other premium Android brands.
The May 2026 AnTuTu results ultimately reinforce one trend: performance competition at the top end of the Android market remains intense, with the Red Magic 11S Pro+ currently holding the benchmark crown.
