18 cores = 12 Prime and 6 Performance Cores

Not sure what a prime core is.

For comparison the M4 Pro can go as high as 10 performance cores and 4 efficiency cores.

Looks like some benchmarks have started leaking: https://www.notebookcheck.net/Snapdragon-8-Elite-Gen-5-perfo...

Mind you, Geekerwan managed to push the A19 Pro to 4019 in Geekbench 6 by using active cooling. https://youtu.be/Y9SwluJ9qPI

Active cooling just means adding a fan.
