Single core even worse than S9, Note9, and they want even more money? I really badly wanted to buy S10+ , but no anymore.

Good thing about my S4 is I can just swap out battery when I need to but now they don't have removable batteries anymore.

          The benchmarking ratings and rankings of iPhones is Solely for bragging rights. It destroys both the processor and the batteries. That's why phones are throttled, sometimes before the warranty is over and batteries need changing. Plus the phones get pretty hot too, often causing issues with usage. I have only used a few iPhones, and while so there are some great things about iPhones, I also believe the processor and battery are not one of them.

            Android doesnt need single core optimization

                    No big surprise, Apple's chips are 1-2 generations ahead of anything Qualcomm, Samsung or HiSilicon Kirin or Mediatek releases.

                    When your hardware and software are all done in-house, it's easy to optimize everything.

You said performance can't even sustained for a second and you also said it is for benchmark only. Do you think benchmarks run in 0.5 second? Exynos never thermal throttle but all SD 8 series throttle. I'll pick exynos everytime over SD due to this.

                                  Real world usage trumps benchmarks every time.
