This is not the first time that the Nokia 9 has been listed in Geekbench. Just a few days ago, we saw the 4 GB model of it. Surprisingly, the newer 8 GB version scores much lower than the 4 GB one. The lower RAM variant had scored 1815 in the single-core test and 6278 in the multi-core one. However, with 8 GB RAM, the score drops to 769 and 1630 respectively. Upon thorough inspection, we found out that the Nokia 9 with 8 GB RAM has been tested on an earlier version of Geekbench which is probably the reason for it.

Coming to specifications, the Nokia 9 is expected to compete with the likes of Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+, OnePlus 5, Xiaomi Mi 6, etc. In the benchmark listing we can clearly see the Processor ID as “ARM implementer 81 architecture 8 variant 10 part 2048 revision 1″, which is nothing but the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 SoC.
