Funny how a year and 9 months later, the G99 still can't beat the 732G. If you have a Dimensity 920, you better hold on to it.

someguy, It's still better, being built by TSMC's 6NM compared to the older 8NM by Samsung on the 732G which means better sustained performance which is better than peak performance in gaming.
