    I am not a fanboy. I have a note5 and an iPhone 7 plus. I had a pdf file about 650mb in size. Trust me it opens on my iPhone but simply doesn’t work on note5. If opens its useless to read on. I don’t trust these videos and fancy bookmarks but again Facebook++ freezes my iPhone. There are somemore apps which sometimes freeze it. Basically I believe it’s up to personal choice to have devices.

      Personally, speed is not the most important thing I would consider when buying a phone. There are more things to consider before speed.(e.g.battery life and habits)

          and that A11 Bionic on 1080p.. on iphone 8 with 1440p it will be left behind further.. LOL.. Apple's magical run is over after 10 years

            Apple had the fastest soc around, no kidding, but they cripple it with the somewhat "slow" interface, one can use android and navigate the whole system swiftly, while in ios, it got a lot to do with the long animation, stuck with only one key or using the assistive touch which make the whole navigation slow despite the fast soc

              Finally, samsung has done it.
              I bet Mate 10 will beat both.

                It's funny how Gsmarena comes up with a comparison that is totally perpendicular to what the rest of the world has already seen.

                  Now wait how fast they can press the missing button on the iPhone X with these speed tests. =D

                      LOL... Samsung famous for bribery scandal in South Korea. They bribe South Korean prime minister through her close friend $38 million. Samsung's heir is in jail right now.
