iPhone12 will gain the first spot in phones 2021 against androids premium phones.
Key points:
- The SoC’s output could still not be really good as the processor used by Apple for this year’s iPhones.
- It was also smaller than the iPhone 11 Pro (A13) score of 1331.
- Using GFX bench results, the websites also checked the GPU performance.
Many familiar with Qualcomm chipsets will understand that the company releases its flagship processor for smartphones each year in December, which will be used by OEMs next year. The company has also implemented the Snapdragon 888 flagship device on a chip this year.
In 2021, this is expected to power all of the premium Android phones. But the SoC’s output could still not be really good as the processor used by Apple for this year’s iPhones.
Anandtech received the benchmarks from Qualcomm:
Anandtech recently obtained Qualcomm’s benchmarks, which were compared to the established scores of the 14 bionic Apple chipsets as well as last year’s A13 chipsets.
Apple iPhone 12 Pro scored 1603 in single-core performance:
Although Apple iPhone 12 Pro (A14 Bionic) scored 1603 in single-core performance in the Geekbench 5, a common CPU benchmarking tool, the Snapdragon 888 scored lower at 1135. It was also smaller than the iPhone 11 Pro (A13) score of 1331.
Despite multicore performance compared to Snapdragon 888’s 3794, the iPhone 12 Pro once again scored higher at 4187.
The website also tested GPU performance:
Using GFX bench results, the websites also checked the GPU performance. The iPhone 12 Pro scored 102.2 peak frames per second, as per the findings.
86 peak frames per second were achieved by the Snapdragon 888. This is much smaller than the iPhone 12, iPhone 11 11 Pro Max, iPhone 11 Pro, iPhone 11, as well as iPhone SE ratings (2020).
The Snapdragon 888 performed well in some of the current high-end Android phones:
On the positive side, however, the Snapdragon 888 performed better in both Geekbench as well as GFX Bench results than most of the latest high-end Android premium phones, such as the Huawei 40 Pro, Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, Galaxy S20 Ultra, and also the Asus ROG Phone 3.
It should be added that with the 5nm process, Snapdragon 888, as well as Apple A14 Bionic, are created. Similar to that used in A14 Bionic, Qualcomm’s chipset also uses Cortex X-1 as part of its big-little architecture.
