    J o m s, 23 May 2017Here you go cowboy.. https://youtu.be/mcTAXsFHu5IThats no test of the CPU, its a test of app loading animations. I picked two test that actually do some real CPU work. Oneplus 3T have super fast animations so yes, it will be faster opening simple apps that don't require any CPU. But as fast as you are doing any CPU related stuff it will be alot slower as seen in my previous links. The A10 is a much more powerful CPU.

    There are quite a few of simple app speed test (with just a few games as heavy workload) and the iPhone is faster in the majority of those. Some example:

    So again, please show me something that actually use the CPU (like my two previous links) where the A10 is not faster.

                  I dont mind using 4 year old lumia design, i dont mind not using premium materials like glass, ceramic or metal. I font mind big bezels on small phones, as long as they are compensated with stereo speakers, or waterproofness. I dont mind thickness, as long as we have a big battery. I dont mind about the resolution, as long as we get 315ppi. Yet on a big flagship, i do mind big bezels! A lot! In 2017, after G6 and S8 and with iphone 8 coming, the main leap of tech is to get more screen estate for less volume, smth that is essentially important when we talk about big and expensive mobiles. unfortunately, all the chinese firms have failed to catch up ( except from xiaomi's mi max, which is quite a monster to begin with)

                      Anonymous, 22 May 2017Don't like all of this nokia ain't nokia stuff. Ex employee... morePrecisely. The old Nokia is gone. They need to prove themselves, and whether they're able to do that is something nobody can confidently speak on. Chances are it'll be an overpriced generic flagship with software naggings and no actual USP. You can't just jump into the game this late with no modern experience or technology and magically be number 1. Even BB was struggling and they were barely dead before they came back.

Constructive criticism is always welcome. But what you're doing is moaning "It's not the real Nokia!" every chance you get. Stop trying to tell people how to spend their money.

                        If Nokia/HMD treats their customers shoddily, they will feel the ramifications of that. Now can you stop your whining about "Chinese knock-off Nokia" and contribute something substantial?

That was my main point. They all use the same SD835. Run the test many times and different company will be on top. It's all random, all SD835 phones in fact have the same raw performance, so Nokia was not on top...

Yes, you should not buy Nokia if the only you care about is the brand name. This will cause HMD global to be like Sony, not even care about competition, milk the fanboys.

                                  I just want a new phone with a 41MP camera and that is running Android with Nokia's skin on top.

WE all know how cr@ppy Geekbench is and that it only interpolated the score of A10 to make it look like twice as powerful as any competitor SoC out there. In real-world app comparison, A10 is just as good or most of the time slower in comparison.
