Apple's A chipset is not efficient. http://i.imgur.com/XQC3FGy.png Any company can make fast Ghz cores but what about battery life? and multitasking?. 5. 8 cores are gimmick? that's why 8 core Exynos 7420 is the fastest Mobile CPU on the market and the most efficient. 6. AMD FX 8 core is one of the best multitasking CPU on the market right now and cost only $150 proof here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHM-LBtJc2Q So please know what your taking about before you post your made up nonsense. You people need to be ashamed of yourself for your level of stupidity...

Almost all phones on android are either dual core, a quad core, and even an octa core. Apple themselves are using dual cores. Now in the process of moving to a triple core processor. Which could be placed on the upcoming devices this year.
      A deca core is only good for show offs. But IRL. You can't even use all the cores.

              What a shame... I'm huge fan of android, but apple are leading the mobile processor performace in single core... Android is loosing ground in the future gaming and heavy productive mobile apps.

                      This is not the real score of snapdragon 820.the developer platform phones will give us the actual results. I am hoping that it can come close to the power of tegra x1. More cores

No. Did I say anything about battery life efficiency in my previous statement? No. Why are you suddenly jumping into conclusion that I was defending iPhone? Additionally, iPhones are infamous of having small batteries. The outdated LCD tech display also doesn't help in the battery life department. The low core amount isn't even related to its battery life.

                                      Why still running i74770K with quad core???

                                      The years of the PC era, octa cores are unheard of from Intel, its only AMD chip that comes with those stupid 12 core apus. See who is on top of performance???

                                      Why would you need octa core?? You running server programs?? Its all marketing gimmick.. They cannot create architecture good enough to VS Apple's A chipset, so they stack it with cores to make numbers bigger, but you know the problem.. YOur android phone LAGS.

                                      Cores have diminishing returns as you get as more. If you get beyond quad core, its already a gimmick.
