This comment section is seriously goofy. Everyone argues about the phones and video and whatnotโ€ฆ. My guys, this is a cpu comparison, not android vs apple. Performance per watt, Core count wise, and ram wise, Apple is definitely winningโ€ฆ Looking at the overall performance, apple is definitely greater than the 888. This isnโ€™t a difficult discussion. The phones aren't in the picture. Please stop caring about whatever the company profits off of you. It's a phone, it's not that deep. It's just a phoneโ€ฆ

I have the iphone 11 and seeing my sister with the oneplus 9 pro it makes me jealous I love apple and android, because they both offer unique features: -android supports apk files and more software 'freedom' (I just need apk for free netflix) -apple has a very user friendly UI, with less bugs and lag in general. Also its cool that you can actually force stop processes on apple (if the screen freezes, I can just turn off the phone, whereas with android sometimes, the power button wont even work when the phone is bugged out) -apple has pretty damn amazing cameras, but I love the google pixel 360 photo option and its various camera features -apple display sucks- its 2021 and their phones dont even have anything more than 60 hz, unless if you get the 13 pro :( (even have it on their ipads so long ago). But apple does have good displays, even for lcd battery life on android is also pretty bangin

True Tone Retina Apple displays are actually made by Samsung, their biggest mobile competitor. Apple has a set number of PPI, color accuracy, and a multitude of additional display specs that they have developed and put millions possible billion into researching as far as what truly looks better on a 5 to 7 inch display held with a meter of viewing distance. Ultimately Apple focused on display quality over hard specs for their flagship phones. Having True Tone, HDR, 458-460 PPI with Pro Motion aka adaptive 120hz without any motion blur on it could have come sooner yes. But at the same quality of display? Maybe not. Samsung has 120hz on a 511 PPI display starting with the S20. But it wasnโ€™t adaptive until the S21 which has been out a year and came out off cycle to the iPhone 13 series. I donโ€™t think apple would have done true 120hz displays because of how wasteful it is to battery life. It seems later to the party because a ton of Android devices actually beat Samsung to 120hz. Samsungs been dropping flag ship displays down to 1080p with adaptive 120hz refresh except on their ultra and you get above 460 PPI and 458 PPI with pro motion on both the pro and pro max. Just saying, only a year after Samsung isnโ€™t as bad as you think!

I admitted that new iPhone is good but not that good. I can only gives 7/10 since it based on my perspective and the facts Bad Side:- - It has bad speakers, sounds like laptop or cheap speakers from 20 dollar. - No USB-C [5 GB/s], still using lightning port[480 MB/s]. For PC enthusiast like me, I really need it and maybe you don't. Durability doesn't really concern me on apple product, "1 year then throw your older device" quote heard over major of users. Trying to say that you can use over 2-3 years, that's good. I'm also using same 3-5 years old 400 dollar Android phone, still good. - Price~ oh if you can afford it why not. Even Linus hates the metal fruit. - [Not important but if you were the same] iOS not really a friendly product for emulator nor 3rd party program, that's good for apple users that trying to say "security". I will say "yes" for them but not for my beneficial. - [Most people likes about Apple] Design and luxury brand, just made it good to show off your fruits logo in front of your friends/public and milk your wallet. Unless you don't care about your money, right? Don't get me wrong if you don't. Good Side:- - Adaptive refresh rate, considerably a brilliant idea to save your battery. But I don't really trust when it comes to Apple battery duration/life, so far this year quite little bit amusing. - Camera, well rarely the best camera but not like it ranked as top 1 nor 2. - Smaller notch, "okey". - Throttling test, quite good. Lower heat issues than SD 888. - Higher CPU/GPU stats than SD888, surprisingly good. But Apple said 50%, for me its not. It's just x% differ. Please always take a note, high frequency/digits calculation doesn't mean that it deliver an equal potential of your performance rate.

-first off, bad speakers? (u alright? :/) -whoever told you that "1 year then throw your older device" is bullshit. Apple keeps updating their software every single year, unlike android where you can guarantee only 2 updates once your phone is launched and that's it. I've been using my 6s from the day I bought it (I'm not sure but if it was December 2015). And it still supports ios 13. - I don't hate linus but he's only stating his opinions and you still have your right to explore and find out which is better. - I agree with you about the whole security thing so that's a huge downside. - you have to agree that apple phone designs are by far one of the best.

Linus January 4, 2022 at 12:36 AM
Jimmy, The thing is, you can't really trust that Media Tek will be truthful with the performance of their processor because of the scandal that happened with them rigging the benchmarks. They basically made it so that their processor works double-overtime whenever it detects that any benchmark is running. This is good and all but it is misleading because the processor cannot remain consistent with that performance for more than a minute or so.

Sussy, Snapdragon 888 and 888+ heat up very much when you play Genshin Impact at maximum graphics for long times. Exynos 2100 is not as powerful as Snapdragon 888, but I'll guess it's fine. Kirin 9000 is really only available in Huawei devices. And all processors can throttle when you play a demanding game such as Genshin Impact. Take it or leave it. A15 shouldn't throttle at all or lag even once in normal everyday conditions, and should lag only when it throttles (which is EXACTLY what happens when you STRESS your phone out).

Green, A15 can not do 8k video, because A15 is designed for iPhone, and iPhone have a 12 megapixel camera... which is not enough pixel to record 8k. So why would Apple make the A15 support 8k if the hardware in which he should run do not support 8k? Be logic. The A serie will support 8k, the day Apple decide to have 8k on their phone, as now, they do not things it is useful (as take a shitload of space when recording, for basically nearly no 8k screen on the market).

Green, 8k? Lol I love gimmicks. The 8k is god awful because itโ€™s a tiny sensor and canโ€™t capture any of the light it needs. Need paper spec to tell people. This is why at least vs Samsungโ€™s 108mp apple holds the lead over them in the camera department with 12mp. Mainly because megapixels arenโ€™t everything (3k Sony cameras donโ€™t use that high of megapixels and destroy all phones for like a decade in the future, partly because massive high quality sensors).

Green, Neither can the the screens in the phones nor the vast majority of screens in people's living rooms. No cinemas are 8K either. Hardly any content in 8K. No disc format yet. High bitrate ProRes 4K is probably comparable to quick compressed 8K. Plus ProRes is made for editing whereas HEVC is not. More pixels in a video doesn't necessarily mean better quality. It needs to be matched the very high bit rate compression. Suitable high colour information and a transmission medium to match. 8K isn't there yet on most fronts. The resolution is there but nothing else - Dolby Vision, etc. A15 is about power where needed (3 Ghz+ on a phone) along with managing battery and disk access (NVMe). Apple does do hardware / software integration better than Android and I expect this phone to remain usable for 5 years. Plenty of people still rocking iPhone 6's, 7's and 8's. This is what Apple is becoming more about - longevity. Apple lost their head CPU architect guy after the A14. They have brought in someone from ARM for A16. The A15 hasn't had the greatest CPU bump this year but A16 should be exciting.

Tripmachine, Best unedited video. If you edit your videos yourself, android's can steamroll over iphone video because you can record videos in log format which enables extreme video editing capability. You can't even click a raw photo from and iphone. They're great in individual aspects.

Brio, Have you ever used a live photo? Have you ever used a slo mo video? Have you ever used the cpu of your phone to its limit? Can you even tell the difference between iphone camera outputs at a glance? Having what you need and nothing else is what nokia and blackberry did. It's a smartphone for crying out loud, it's not what you need, it's what you want... 8k televisions are out by the way, and the more 8k video is made the more 8k display technology will be developed

Android fan, You've never used a high refresh rate screen before. Using Google chrome and Facebook is actually exactly where high refresh rates shine because games and video have a limited fps. "Apple is 3 years ahead" Literally just released high refresh rates when android's have had them for years now Just made widgets which have been on android's for half a decade now Just increased their pixel size in the camera AFTER android's made the trend. More things I can say, infinity display tech, BY ANDROIDS Multiple camera systems BY ANDROID Smaller notch? How about no notch? Android's are coming out with punch hole cameras, pop out cameras and even under display cameras now. While under display tech is still new it's getting really good with an almost invisible camera except at angles and the camera images are getting better although a haze does come up from time to time. Also, android's have fingerprint sensors on the power button. Much more secure than face id, if someone is collecting your fingerprint to unlock your phone however, you have a bigger problem.

Green, Let's be honest who takes a video on a phone in 8k There are literal thousand dollar cameras for that sh*t why the f*ck would you take 8k video on a phone. Not only would it not look as good as 8k on a camera whose main selling point is 8k video but it will take up too much memory. Like fr's who takes out their phone and is like imma video this sh*t in 8k.

Sussy, It's a beast at genshin and doesn't even flinch. Besides if you can afford an iPhone 13 to play genshin on then why the hell won't you just buy a gaming rig or at least a gaming PC.

James, I hope you know it was their choice not to go over 60hz for a while, it's not that they couldn't do it but decided that it's worth working on other parts of the phone than having a high refresh rate when other system functions are heavily lacking.

Yellow, Content creators don't film 8k on phones. They film 8k on cameras designed for 8k not on phones. I hope you understand that.

Yellow, Content creators don't use phones for content creation. Plus, not many people even have 8k displays so what's the point? :/
