Leaked Chip Clocks Exceed Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 Specs
A leaked Infinix benchmark hints at a faster mid-range Qualcomm chip, though the device remains unannounced and unconfirmed.

A Geekbench 7.1.0 benchmark screenshot posted on 27 October 2026 identified the Infinix Note 70 Pro as model X6766, running Android 17 with 8 GB of RAM. The leak is unconfirmed and remains at the rumor stage rather than a shipped or announced product.
Why it matters
Leaked benchmark data offers an early look at the processor tier Infinix may target for its next mid-range phone. The listed Qualcomm QTI SM7635 chip's clock speeds differ from the published Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 specifications, which raises the possibility of a variant or a future generation.
The leaked result is a single Geekbench run, so its scores reflect one unverified test rather than a validated performance figure. Measured against Qualcomm's published Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 maxima, the leaked clock speeds run higher on several cores, but whether the chip is a variant or a new generation remains unresolved.
The players
Infinix
A Hong Kong-based smartphone brand owned by Transsion Holdings, known for budget and mid-range Android devices sold in emerging markets.
Qualcomm
The San Diego-based chipmaker whose Snapdragon system-on-chip line powers a large share of the world's Android smartphones.
The details
The benchmark was identified through a Geekbench 7.1.0 screenshot, a standard software tool that runs a chip through standardized workloads and reports scores. The leaked listing shows eight processor cores arranged in three clusters, meaning groups of cores that run at different speeds, with four cores at 2.02 GHz, three at 2.71 GHz and one at 2.96 GHz. Clock speed, measured in gigahertz, indicates how many cycles a core can execute per second, so higher clusters generally handle demanding tasks while slower ones save power. The leak also detected 7.19 GB of memory and references a 7,000 mAh battery, though the battery figure is unverified.
Timeline
Earlier documentation for the X6766 model was released last month, noting uncertainty about the processor.
On 27 October 2026, the Geekbench 7.1.0 screenshot of the Note 70 Pro was posted.
The Tech Race
Qualcomm's Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 SM7635-AC brief sets the published ceiling for the mid-range chip tier that Infinix's leaked device appears to use. If the leaked clocks hold up, the result points to a faster variant or next-generation part that competes in the same budget segment against rival mid-range chipmakers.
No availability, pricing, or launch date has been announced for the Infinix Note 70 Pro, so buyers cannot yet expect the leaked specifications in a product. Any eventual phone's real-world speed will depend on the final chip and its shipping configuration, which remain unconfirmed.
The takeaway
Treat the leaked scores as provisional until a retail device or official Qualcomm documentation confirms the exact chip. Watch for an Infinix launch announcement or a Qualcomm product brief that names the processor and its final clock speeds.
