iPhone 12 Chip Is The World's Most Powerful Mobile Processor, Putting All Competitors To Shame

No Android phones manage to reach the excellence of the A14 Bionic chip on iPhone 12, even the Samsung’s Galaxy Note 20 Ultra with the Snapdragon 865+

iPhone 12 and 12 Pro’s reviews are out already and except for the battery, most responses are positive.

It comes as no surprise that the A14 Bionic chip is the star of the show. However, it wasn’t until when benchmark test results were made public that we knew that the processor outruns even the highest-end competitors by a very large margin.

Coming in second place is, not surprisingly, Apple’s A13 Bionic chip. Qualcomm’s best processor, the Snapdragon 865+ occupies third place.

Here is iPhone 12’s chip compared to those of some popular Android counterparts:

iPhone 12 dominates both single-core and multi-core categories, followed by iPhone 12 Pro.

iPhone 11 Pro Max with its A13 Bionic lags behind by around 19% in single-core tests but only 5% on multi-core.

No Android phones manage to reach the excellence of the A14 Bionic chip, even the Samsung’s Galaxy Note 20 Ultra with the Snapdragon 865+.

The Android phones featured here showed even worse performance when it comes to 3DMark.

Surprisingly, iPhone 11 Pro Max and its A13 Bionic chip finish first and outshine the iPhone 12 by a substantial margin. iPhone 12 and its Pro variant show nearly identical performance in this test.

So now it isn’t the question of which chip dominates the performance chart because the obvious winner is the A14 Bionic chip. The real question here is by how much.
