    This year its finally about battery efficiency, which is a veery welcome change. Power tuned a73 on 10nm? Yes, please.

      AzureLord, 03 Mar 2017It required quite a bunch of code messing. ^^; It's too com... moreWhere did you find blobs for gpu, camera and, radios ? Apple doesn't release them. How where you able to even boot android kernel on A10. My understanding is that A10 does not strictly follow the arm architecture (for example it's intentionally built wider than normal ARM so that its design won't be reverse engineered given that such designs are not supported by Android kernel or indeed Linux ARM).

      Smells BS...

        Apolodor, 03 Mar 2017Guys 6 gb of ram is PURE MARKETING ESPECIALLY for a midrang... moreIt's not , it's the opposite than marketing. It's the single most important spec regarding everyday performance. SoC is far less useful at this point. All online real time tests show the same thing 6GB phones are far faster, it's not even close: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otwED6s3rCQ

        C9pro *would* be the faster phone. I bet my life on it. Just watch that space when every day performance tests start coming out. It doesn't even matter that it uses a weaker SoC, SoC is mostly a marketing ploy at this point. Ram amount clearly matter much more as it turn the ram into a ramdisk.

          J o m s, 03 Mar 2017Again, just relying on the worthless GB app doesn't make A1... moreHaha, what are you TALKING about. That test is mostly about IO speeds, ram speed and ram amount. Very little to do with CPU.

          Check this for an alternative test:
          https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_PK_6F_Bhk

          Particularly the "lapse it" part. "Lapse it" uses cpu power. Guess what happens. 19 seconds for note 7, 11 seconds for iPhone 7. Boom a second test showing Qualcomm being put to its place. And if I put some time to it I'm sure I will find ten more tests showing the inferiority oF Kryo cores that Qualcomm is using.

          It's always the same story. The explanation is simple too. Apple adds 30-40% more performance each gen, Qualcomm would be lucky to top 20% (between generations) and very often it's closer to 15%. It tends to pile up over the years, and while Qualcomm and Apple started from the same place, by now they're far apart, and Apple is moving even further away... Qualcomm reminds me of Intel (you get 5% more performance and that's it... "shut up" you don't need more, because I -Intel- says so)

            J o m s, 03 Mar 2017Again, just relying on the worthless GB app doesn't make A1... moreDozens if not hundreds of youtube videos show that the iphone 7 is overall faster than any android flagships.
            GB may favor the iphone but the fact that the A10 is faster than any other mobile chipset is not denied by many professional reviewers. Just get over it, Mr J O M S

              Anonymous, 03 Mar 2017As an Xperia device user, I dont think you have used one be... moreGo away if you don't know what you are talking about
              Xperia is just like any other android with SD820 or 821 so don't
              Tell me your phone is magically different than others

              If you do not play games then I'd recommend android over iPhone cause it's just much better and cheaper to use now
              One can argue with me that why would someone drop close to $1000 on a phone to play game... well why not?
              If you don't care about gaming on your android then even SD820 is wayyy over kill cause SD600 series can rundnjust as well as 800 series

              So like I said we do not have to hear their excuses
              If they want to charge as much as iPhone then they better work
              Their Gpu performance that's the fact

                JMTM, 03 Mar 2017God stop with your HD screen nonsense You think I'm an ap... moreWell you are using a crippled SD821 device my friend. Try Le Pro 3 or Oneplus 3T. =D

                Look at this comparison

                  Anonymous, 03 Mar 2017Qualcomm is about a year behind, so no SD821 is not superio... moreAgain, just relying on the worthless GB app doesn't make A10 vastly superior than SD821.
                  Take this an example, see how pathetic your iPhone 7 is in real world comparison.

                  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcTAXsFHu5I

                  Does the A10 look 100% faster than SD821 as what this worthless GB app indicated?
                  It is obvious that GB particularly GB4 is rigged to favor A10. Extrapolating the scores to make it look like it is vastly superior.

DFU mode ->Remove support to non apple OS. and flash iOS.

                        It looks like they chose power savings over performance.

The two core is almost twice size of other's 8 cores. And without modem! The area of the chip decides the capacity of the battery.Your chip is smaller and your battery is larger.So you can see huawei put a 4000mah battery in mate9 but Apple is incapable.

                                        Guys 6 gb of ram is PURE MARKETING ESPECIALLY for a midranger. Stop boasting the c9 pro. I am expecting 6 gb of ram for sure from s8 because 2 gb of ram on lollipop is not enough even for one game! Asphalt xtreme on galaxy alpha lags.There are constant frame drops even though is pretty smooth.
