It isn't all that surprising. Adreno is actually based off old AMD tech. Of course Qualcomm has updated it but I wouldn't be surprised if AMD wasn't able to spank them in graphics with graphics IP 10 years newer.
Most modern non-xe graphics are based on the super old 915, that tungsten graphics made for intel back in the heyday. Almost all modern Intel HD/Iris graphics are largely this architecture. Many small changes, but even the Linux driver used is still i915
Search stack exchange for "why-is-the-intel-hd-graphics-driver-called-i915" I can't link here.
To put this into perspective, that same architecture, on mobile Intel 10th gen chips, was able to push AMD's Vega around a bit, and that was basically from the Pentium 4 era.
