Given that the ZenFone 6 comes packed with most of the latest and greatest hardware available for mobile phones, expect some top-end results. If anything, the ZenFone 6 benchmarks will show top results on a phone that costs less than the other flagships on the market today.
Note: The numbers in bold/italics below are the benchmark scores for the ZenFone 6.

What do these ZenFone 6 benchmark scores tell us?
Consider the price of the competing phones. The ZenFone 6 holds its own against the big hitters from the larger name brands in the mobile phone space.
Notable to us is the ZenFone 6 domination over the Google Pixel 3a XL which should be on the mind of consumers shopping in that $499 price range. Yes the Pixel 3a XL is marginally cheaper but the benchmark scores tell you just how much performance you lose out on.
Even though the OnePlus 7 Pro beat the ZenFone 6 marginally in some benchmark scores, the price difference between the two phones is more substantial. In terms of sheer speed or processing power, it’s hard to justify spending more on the OnePlus 7 Pro just to eek out minimal speed benefits.
Xiaomi Mi 9 does score some solid benchmark scores, similar to that of the ZenFone 6 (ZS630KL).
There is also another conclusion that can be found here by analyzing the data. The ZenUI performance mode really works! So if you buy a ZenFone 6 (details here) then you really should make use of the “performance mode” when gaming.
