Anyone who buys Apple phones is either a fanboy or a normie who sees iPhones as a status symbol.

Apart from the 60hz, it isn't even a bad phone at all, maybe just a lil overpriced πŸ₯€

The Geekbench results are probably wrong.a new result was released:single coreβ€”3409 and multi coreβ€”8492.

I hope the Geekbench and AnTuTu results are wrong, that would mean the A18 chip would be slightly slower than the A17 Pro? The Dimensity 9400 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 could hurt a lot
