My gpu score was lower than average despite cooling the phone. It was 210k Antutu gpu while total was 1.4 million

Can you update this CPU please? I dont think its worser than A16 Bionic. Also, why "gaming points" that lowered? A17 Pro isnt that bad at end of the day. This at least deserves like 85-87 gaming points. But, ur choice.

its probably apple lowering the cpu power to prevent overheat in everyday use as this iphone 15 pro was the first using titanium, it had a LOT of heat problems when it launched

The A17 Pro chip delivers the best performance with iOS 18.5, so those using the iPhone 15 Pro should consider sticking with this version. I just tested it, the Antutu score reached over 1.8 million; Geekbench single-core is 2981, and multi-core is 7641. There's no temperature issues compared to previous versions.

The Apple iPhone 15 pro max has 3 nanometer that is why it's the fastest chip ever in a mobile phone The only device that can beat it is ipad pro m4 it has a 4.4ghz clock speed

Sorry to interrupt, but please take note M4 is a chip specifically made for MacBook hence why it can handle clock speeds above 4ghz. If we're talking about mobile chips, however (as a whole, including android), then apologies to bear the bad news, but Apple has been dethroned

Oh my God, the 3.78Ghz speed is insane! There's nothing that can beat the power of Apple's A17 Pro. Even in single-core performance, it scores 2910 points. It's an incredible demonstration of speed and power, or whatever you want to call it. I don't know, it's just unbeatable!

The performance of the Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max is nearly identical to the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, despite scoring over 7,000 in Geekbench 6's multi-core and 2,900 in single-core tests! Amazing, isn't it?

Rosegold, You are comparing a Snapdragon 8 SOC wich consume between 5 & 10W at max VS M4 wicu consumes 15 to 20W. Is not the same. Compare Apples with Apples. A17 vs 8 Gen 2 both 2023 and 8 Gen 2 is better.

I'd argue that Antutu V10 allows for a direct comparison between iOS and Android. In V9, the Apple A16 Bionic scored just over 900K, but now it's over 1400K in V10. After the shift to Antutu V10, the A16 Bionic scored over 1400K and the A17 Pro surpassed 1500K. The A17 Pro and the MTK 9200 Plus have nearly identical scores in Antutu V10. In Geekbench 6, the Apple Bionic series tends to score higher, but in Geekbench 5, the A16 and 9200 Plus have almost identical scores for both single and multi-core tests. So, it seems Geekbench updates their scores more frequently for Apple iOS.

Apple has a better CPU core, and Geekbench is a CPU test. 3DMark is a GPU test and let me tell you, Apple scores 1/2 of the 8th gen 3.

I hope Qualcomm outperforms Apple this year. The iPhone is always at the top every year. Come on!

iPhone consistently strikes hefty deals with TSMC to ensure they don't produce processors for any other company, especially those similar to iPhone's chips. For instance, this year, a contract was inked with TSMC to prevent them from manufacturing 3-nanometer processors for any other company. While it's a smart strategy for Apple to stand out with its powerful processors, it does come across as somewhat selfish. However, if Samsung advances in the processor industry as rumored, neither Apple nor TSMC will be able to halt its progress. And Exynos processors could reclaim their past glory.

I believe it will be extremely challenging for them for the next 1-2 generations, especially in terms of raw CPU performance. Apple has consistently outperformed with fewer cores for the past decade! I'm an Android fan and I value open source, openness, and customization. However, I genuinely appreciate the level of optimization that Apple brings to their products and apps. It's truly a sight to behold.

Qualcomm's already surpassed Apple in GPU since 8+ gen 1 which came out last year. A17 pro is only just catching up to 8 gen 2's GPU so it's only in CPU that Apple is ahead. Can't wait to see what performance Qualcomm will bring next year with the 8 gen 3 (1x cortex X4, 3x cortex A720 & 4x A520).

While the next Snapdragon 8 may be able to tie with Apple A17 in multi-core, we'll have to wait for next year when Nuvia cores arrive.

Qualcomm had never outperformed Apple, and sadly, I don't think they could ever surpass them. The year was 2015 when Apple was surpassed for the last time. It happened with the Galaxy S6's SoC, Exynos 7420. It was the first 14nm SoC around the world. And not only in mobile processors but in the entire area of microprocessors. It was groundbreaking. At that time, Samsung was actually better than TSMC at producing microprocessors. I believe that was the biggest reason why Samsung was able to be ahead of the others because there was no TSMC to produce great SoCs for everyone.

Geekbench Updated to Geekbench 6. Therefore, we can call the platform the Apple Bench. It's the worst update that's ever happened. Why is it that whenever Android processors are stronger or as powerful as Apple processors, the platform updates and supports Apple processors and makes them the best? Therefore, I always prefer AnTuTu.

Monpo, Antutu is not a good refence in order to compare scores from different plataforms as android and iOS, due to the fact that those plataforms have obvious differences regarding the kernel and development language, as the case of APIs of the GPUs (Metal on iOS, and Vulkan on Android) so even though both do the same task, they behave different, and in consecuence need to evaluate differenty, something that even antutu itself recognises it https://www.antutu.com/en/doc/119646.htm
