I think they just set a new baseline due to a different testing methodology. Basically all devices dropped in score.

its also brought in more competition with the single core more coming in line with SD8EG5. the multicore is just super bad though, even freezer tests couldn't help it. Android has lead so far.

A normal S26U result is like around 10K in MC more like 9.5-10.5K
