We have seen a lot of news about how blindingly fast the new iPhone 8 and iPhone X phones are in the GeekBench benchmarks, Gary Sims over at Android Authority has put together a video to tell use exactly why this is so. Thanks grtitan.
Check out the video.
On paper, the multi-core result of the hexa-core A11 is 50 percent faster than the octa-core Snapdragon 835. As I mentioned above though, Geekbench doesn’t test other parts of the SoC. Things like the DSP, the ISP and any AI-related functions will influence the day-to-day experience of any devices using these processors. However, when it comes to raw CPU speed, the A11 is the clear winner.
This can be a bit hard for Android fans to stomach. So what is the reason? First we need a bit of a history lesson.
