Apple A17 Bionic makes stellar Geekbench debut with up to 47% performance gains over the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3

Another year Another snaildragon. Qualcomm should give up already, they'll never beat Apple.

,that's why geekbench is called Applebench lol

And, do you need it? People doesn't review the features of the mobiles and they use less than 60% of their capabilities so, do you need it?

You've posted unofficial scores that really don't mean squat. Until the official Geekbench scores are published everything is speculation. 45% gains from previous gen are a big boast. It all means nothing until they public official scores.

This proves Apple made the right decision to buy up all of TSMC's 3 nm process thus leaving none for the competition. The upcoming A17 bionic and M3 chips with the 3nm process will easily overpower their competition. And with Apple's relentless pursuit of perfection and being number 1 who knows, maybe Apple will shoehorn the M3 chip into a iPhone someday. Extravagance is the name of the game.

So you're gonna be one of the few knukcleheads who's gonna render the next iPhone on their iPhones'. Other than that, edit the next 8k movie, sketch an anime series all in your iPhone? Your statement makes no sense as a person will never be able to utilise all that power even if they tried.
Iphone never were the best and we already know that from their baby m1 ultra compared to a rtx 3090 😂

Actually,  expected rather than stellar would be a more appropriate adjective for the performance of apple's upcoming chip. Considering TSMC's N3 reported transistor density fluctuating between 40 and 60 percent higher than N5 and N4.

However, we need to see SOCs from competitors on the same node to make valid comparisons.  Last time this happened in recent  years was between snapdragon 8 gen 2 and a16 bionic.

On the same node the latest SOCs are for all intents and purposes about equal. Yes , a 16 bionic is about 25 percent faster on the cpu front.But at what cost? By being about 75 percent slower gpu wise and much slower on the neural engine front.

And of course what remains an open issue is sustained performance as mobile benchmarks have some small troubles capturing it. But this is an issue for another debate.

Point being that comparing SD 8 gen 3 with a17 bionic might be invalid based on the info we know until now.

So you are saying Apple is s*** because a system that as a whole uses less than half the power of the RTX 3090 is directly comparable? The guy you quoted is clearly a super Apple fan boy but you are also just stupidly far on the opposite side. Apple does great innovation it doesn't make their efforts useless. is just sad they gatekeep by having stupidly expensive upgrades and anti consumer design,

Can't block ads on IOS, so point is kinda moot. What, I'm gonna choose a phone that serves me up ads faster? And pay $1500+ for it? No Thanks. Stick with my Android+Firefox and yearly costs of ~$200 (sell last year's model, buy new this year on Black Friday) rinse & repeat.

I dislike iOS for other reasons but you can use a custom DNS to block trackers and ads on both though. It will work equally fine as it does on Android, basically almost no ads anywhere including browser(s).
