A13 chip is faster than SD865, but iPhones come with little cooling solution, so sustained performance of iPhones loses out to a SD865 phone with good cooling, in this case the F2 Pro.

I don't know who on Androig is still torturing themselves with the official app. People seem to have forgotten that back in the day you could lock the phone and still listen to youtube, you could go in another app and still have it on. And then Youtube decided to force people to pay for subscription or live with all the limitations they added. Like seriously, one time I saw my girlfriend go out for a run with the phone in her hand and the screen on just to listen to a specific video while running! Who does that? I guess everyone who doesn't use vanced

What a sh... moreI did not say that throttle free iPhone 11 with LCD beats the F2 Pro. I already mentioned that F2 Pro automatically wins because of its good cooling solution for a regular phone.
What I mentioned is that if the iPhone had a vapor chamber, it can stand out against the F2 Pro.
Simple logic and you couldn't even comprehend that. 🙉
Mi 10 throttling in Antutu and F2 Pro not is probably just a coincidence. Performance of Mi 10 and F2 Pro is identical. Same chipset, same cooling solution, same OS. Never I had trusted Antutu after its removal from Play Store and phones benchmark cheating and Antutu doesn't acknowledge that.

YVLR for great ad-free YouTube experience with microG to log in to your Google account.
Both the apps are better than original YouTube app.

Considering Asus shouldn't fail in the hardware front, all I hope is that it has band 66 and all the 5G bands for the US (including mmWave), Canada, Europe, and China (I travel there from time to time). If it does, I may bite the bullet to finally replace my aging LG V20 (although I may use that phone as a guinea pig to try rooting for the first time to get Lineage on it).

There are so may apps that don't work properly with all phones, all versions of Android or are just scam. Everyone who's been using an Android phone knows that.
And why shouldn't I complain about the simplest things. If a manufacturer can't get the simplest thing right and I'm expected to pay $500 + or $1000+ and then "do my research", then how can it expect me to buy its products in the future?
And my main phone is Huawei Mate 30 Pro, so I'm already fine without the play store.

LMAO, I Though you were in some corner crying after seeing iPhone lose.
Someone smart would have already typed "IPhone throttling compared to ROG 2" or "Poco F2 pro crushing iPhone 11" in YouTube search box.
But then again expecting such expertise from iOS users is not possible.

Go ahead, uninstall playstore and only rely upon apps provided by the manufacturer out of the box.
Millions of apps on playstore are useless by your logic.
Stop using all third party apps as they are too much work to install.

What a shame.
Gfx Manhattan? Where did that come from?
We are talking about Poco F2 pro beating iPhone 11 pro Max in speed tests not benchmarks.
IPhone doesn't throttle in speed tests.
Here's your statement from previous posts :
"Cooling solution is the factor, not the chipset. Had iPhones come with a vapor chamber and bigger heat plates it would have crushed the Poco F2 Pro."
Despite not throttling in speed test, iPhone still loses the speed test to Poco F2 pro.
No amount of vapor cooling can help paper champ A13 win.
Speaking of repeated Antutu benchmarks, mi10 with vapor cooling did throttle compared to Poco F2 pro.
Total fail! Try again.

While I'm not a fan of the aesthetics, it's a fantastic feature rich phone with a great display. Not the joke panel available on iPhone.
And to those cheap shills who are saying they'd rather buy K30, I want to say one thing: Grapes are sour. I'd buy a Taiwanese phone from a reputed brand over PLA backed Chinese brands anyday.

I've done plenty of research, but you can buy whatever phone you want and use whatever third-party apps you want. I personally am done with that, I don't want to check xda daily or go through all the junk on the play store (as let's be honest, nowadays it's all junk, junk, buggy apps, freemium apps and more junk) and download 10-15 apps (and even pay for some) until I find the one that does what the phone should have been doing out of the box.
