AnTuTu scores suggest iPhone 12 chipset is downclocked, GPU is slower than on the 11-series

16 October 2020
The Apple A14 chipset is also used in the iPad Air (2020), which posted higher scores than the iPhone 12.

    But sure, clearly vast majority if Android users care or even knows about flashing ROM right?

    You do realise that you probably represent less than 1% of the entire android users? Most likely about the same for iPhone users who jailbreaks.

Mods are why android phones are superior to iphones. Think of it like open source Tesla(still waiting for that) vs Audi with more facelifts than Alla Pugacheva yet still lacking or barely keeping up.

It is the same with RAM. They’re clearly illustrating using less resources while providing exceptional performance is possible. Even Google tried this approach with the Pixel but doesn’t work as Fandroids have been conditioned that more is better.

        Yes ideally 120hz woulda been great sure, however everyone knows it’s a huge drain to the battery as again battery tech is not there yet as it’s very resource hungry.

        Prove to me that SOT of those phones you mentioned are better than iPhone 11 Pro Max at 120hz at the same or better resolution.

          Putting smaller capacity batteries is their way of giving less to consumers and making more profit.

          Besides, they are stuck at pedestrian 60hz which is why their battery life is better.
          They decided to skip 120hz this year as they know their battery optimizations would have been exposed with subpar battery life.

          Mi 10T Pro, OP8 pro, Mi 10 ultra all have 120hz and above screen yet give better SOT than 60hz iPhone 11 pro Max despite having 500mah more capacity.
          Their charging speeds are also 5 generations ahead.
          Nobody wants to get stuck charging their phones for 2+ hours.

            iPhones lasting longer from previous gen without huge incremental increase in capacity. This year they’re even saying battery capacity might be less yet it will last longer despite usage of 5G. That is TRUE OPTIMIZATION. It’s not even an opinion.

              If they want to keep same endurance rating as last year, they'll have to downclock the processor as there is no dedicated cooling. They also need to accommodate for the 5g battery drain.

              Besides, I don't think battery life was a problem on iPhone 11 pro Max, weak slow charging was. They should have upgraded their faster charging technology.

                        I use to be an apple fans, but this time I'm very disappointed with this company as covid pandemic. Thery are more like robbers that Rob from the user. How can during a market downfall they increase the price of the iPhone 12 and worst not supplying charger and ear phone but claim like a hero of saving the earth of environmental friendly of doing so.

They actually constantly optimise their SOC to be powerful without using a lot of resources. This contradicts Fandroids philosophy of more is better. That’s just how they have been conditioned. Specs war is something Fandroids invented.

                          Apples thinking would be to have a battery with less mah that will last for days. Through better battery tech and highly optimised SOC.
