The Apple iPhone 17e Geekbench Scores have leaked online ahead of the expected launch. However, instead of excitement, the scores have raised many questions. Tech fans and analysts say the benchmark listing shows several red flags. Some even believe the leak could be fake.
Apple is expected to launch the iPhone 17e soon. But this latest Geekbench 6 listing has created confusion rather than hype.

Why the iPhone 17e Geekbench Scores Look Suspicious

The leaked benchmark shows the iPhone 17e running an A19 chip with an 8-core CPU clocked at 3.76GHz. This is unusual. Apple has used a 6-core CPU design in its A-series chips for many years. An 8-core setup looks unlikely.
There are more problems with the listing:
- The device identifier is shown as iPhone99,11
- The iPhone 16e carries the code iPhone17,5
- The new model should logically use something like iPhone18,5
- The clock speed is listed at 3.76GHz, which is lower than expected
- RAM is shown as 10GB, while reports suggest 8GB
- The motherboard name appears as “VPHONE600AP,” which does not match Apple’s usual naming pattern
Because of these issues, many experts believe the iPhone 17e Geekbench Scores may be forged.

Comparison With Previous iPhone Models
When compared to earlier models, the leaked scores also look odd. The base iPhone 17 reportedly performs better in some areas. Even the iPhone 16e follows Apple’s usual hardware pattern more closely.
Apple is known for keeping benchmark details secret until after launch. Real Geekbench scores usually appear only after official announcements. Past leaks were rare and mostly accidental.

For now, buyers should not take the iPhone 17e Geekbench Scores seriously. It is better to wait for the official launch and verified benchmarks. The real performance numbers will become clear soon after Apple unveils the device.
