iPhone 8 completely destroys everything else as expected

Great, now the twitter app can continue using more and more CPU so we can send each other 140 byte long messages.

>>60080820
No surprises, no one other than Apple are aiming for the higher single core performance possible for years.

Honestly I don't know what the fuck Apple is doing but I still suspect there's some collusion going on between them and the coders that develop GeekBench.

It's not like we haven't seen benchmarks be seriously skewed towards certain CPUs, certain GPUs, even certain chipsets over the years as well as being not only application/software based (the benchmark app/software itself) but also even down to the driver version for the GPU being detected and some aspects of the benchmark just totally being skipped in terms of actual measurements in favor of just boosting the final score.

I know that iOS is more efficient since it runs on the bare metal hardware and not in a virtual machine like Android does but even so, these kinds of massive scores compared to processors that are actually 2-3x faster in terms of raw clock speed is just ridiculous and can't be directly attributed to just having a more efficient operating system or even the SoC the Apple hardware is making use of.

There's something not quite right about this shit and those scores.

It will blow up everything in radius of one meter?

>>60080890
I still don't understand what's happened with Geekbench 3 to Geekbench 4.
All CPUs had their single score scores lower EXCEPT the ones made by Apple that increased its scores.

>>60080820
>An important mention is that it's not impossible to fake such a screenshot - it's very easy in fact. So by all means, don't take any of this for granted.

>Anyway, if we do choose to believe the leaked image, then also note that the iPhone 8 will come with a screen resolution of 2,800x1,242, which makes for an incredibly odd 20.2:9 or 2.25:1 aspect ratio. And yes, that's even taller than the 18.5:9 Samsung went with for its S8.

>The prototype in question runs iOS 11 as you'd expect, and it identifies itself as "iPhone 10,6" - for comparison, the iPhone 7 is "iPhone 9,1".

Hmmm

>>60080890

GodDamn

What the actual fuck. How are they doing this? Jim Keller isn't even human, I'm convinced. I still don't get why Apple is pushing CPU performance so hard. iOS isn't a heavyweight bloated OS even on older hardware. My 5S runs 10.3 very well with no noticeable slowdowns despite having memory usage at around 90%.

Why are Apple pushing so hard? Jesus fuck, even the A10 Fusion still wipes the floor with anything else around. Then they release something even more powerful by a significant margin. Wow.

>>60080951

>iOS is much smoother than Android's, and it's very noticable

Yeah, you're a 'normie' if you want something dependable that pretty much always works as desired.

>>60080957
>I still don't get why Apple is pushing CPU performance so hard
Because eventually, these CPUs are going to be used for other purposes than iOS/mobile.

>>60080820

>>60080987

Schiller and I'm not sure which other exec, maybe Federighi indicated they have no interest in A-series CPUs to power Macs as a main CPU. They could however be used for other things, like low power functions. Having your laptop do things in the background while 'off' with extremely efficient CPUs would be good. Or having a powerful A-series to help alongside an x86 CPU for things. I guess they trialed it with the T1 which runs the Touch Bar independently of the rest of the hardware.

And let me guess, it will have the same garbage battery life with non-removable battery to boot, big fucking whoop.

This industry is such a joke. What's even the point of focusing so much on performance when the truth is that it's been YEARS since performance bumps have stopped being a noticeable thing? You'd be hard pressed to find any mid end phone that lags on anything nowadays. Maybe you could mention "high end" smartphone gaming, I think? But who the fuck is "gaming" on the their phone?

I accidentally my iPhone 6S and since I had no money for another flagship I had to settle down for a redmi 4 pro and you know what? It's the same fucking shit, in fact, despite its very basic camera, I'm enjoying it way more because while I had to keep constantly worrying about my battery with my 6S, now I can do this, pic related. And you know what? I wouldn't trade this for anything else because your device can be as powerful as you want, it isn't worth jack fucking shit if it's dead by the middle of the day. I realized how much of an idiot I was for constantly looking for the BEST PERFORMANCE, whose difference no one can notice and no one needs because the truth is that every single one of these devices are all much more powerful than any app requires for a completely smooth experience. I mean, it's a phone, a fucking phone. You whip it out of your pocket, check social media, type some texts, check some emails, shitpost, take some pics and that's it. What smartphone nowadays doesn't do this comfortably with smoothness to spare?

>>60080820

As long as I can make calls, send Txts, get the few apps I use, and the overall speed of the device is fast I'm good.

Apple devices are eye candy and that's it. People believe the more money they spent on some shiny apple device that it's better than the phone or computer that's $200 cheaper and makes them out to be something they aren't which is fucking hilarious.

People want faster processors because marketing tells them it's important.

The only thing I can imagine faster mobile processors being useful for is when they get so fast they can start acting as lightweight desktop replacements, but we're not there yet.

Right now faster mobile cpu's barely matter, even cheap cpu's perform perfectly fine.

In desktop land it's a completely different story of course.

>>60080820
Honestly as of now it doesn't really matter that much, but when apple does mix Mac OS and IOS together then we finally have the ideal computer. Just imagine it. The phone can be a desktop when you want it to be and a phone when you want it to be. If we truly are going to replace laptops then Apple will be the ones to do it.

I'll just stick with my Galaxy S5 now, the battery is replaceable and about the only part that has any kind of short lifespan.

Hit me up when they make a smartphone that works just as good as my S5 but has a week long battery life.

>>60086272
>Give me a phone with a processor that's hyper efficient and gets everything done well but with way better battery life.

Apple literally did that with the A10 for iPhone 7/7+

It has two low power cores for basic tasks and battery life savings, and two additional high power cores for more intensive tasks. Literally everything Apple does is for some combination of battery life/aesthetic/power. You're just too brainwashed to accept they make better phones than samshit

>>60086382
I considered the Iphone, but the headphone jack was a dealbreaker

iPhone hardware always comes out on top when it's first released. At least the ridiculous price premium isn't for nothing. Problem is that people who dislike iOS aren't going to change their minds no matter how good the hardware is.

No, they haven't. There are a ton of casual users who still want a physical keyboard and a monitor larger than 10". Do you think people are using a touch screen or a shitty keyboard case that can only angle a tablet at 1 or maybe 2 angles if they want to regularly type something larger than a couple sentence post somewhere on the internet? Do you think students are writing reports for school/college on tablets or phones when desktops and laptops are available. Just because someone is a casual computer users doesn't mean they only use their computers for social media and consuming media online.

Thats pretty much all they do which is why a phone suffices, when it doesnt they use their laptops.
If you really wanted to push this retarded idea of phone docking, will quickly realize they can just screencast to their TV and use a bluetooth keyboard.

No company is going to convince people who have grown accustomed to working on their laptop from the couch, or browsing the internet on their phone from the couch to go back to a desktop environment.

You really think they are going to buy a monitor, desk, and dock just to leave the comfort of the living room to do minor work? Stuff they could already do on a cheap laptop?

The next logical conclusion would be to say hook it up to the TV!
Too bad its literally something they can already do wirelessly without having to buy some stupid dock.

Not at all.

If anything it runs better than what Geekbench would have you believe. Due to touchjizz and the like, the s8's real world performance is actually laggy sometimes, even compared to the Google Pixel. The iPhone on the other hand is silky smooth. In addition, many apps are optimized for iPhone and the resolution is lower so it runs even better than you'd expect.

At this point poordroid is no longer a meme. Iirc Apple was slow to add things like multitasking but at this rate, with the forced Bixby and curved meme shit and Pixel just being an inferior iPhone anyway, Apple may well be unrivaled.
