                  Everyone there, except for LG, Sharp and Asus, is Chinese. These guys are at the forefront nowadays.

                              They clearly lose in AI department.

                              BTW, your favorite iPhone 12 series is using maximum amount of AI especially in camera department. Snapdragon as expected is ahead of its competition.

                              Apple's best is destroying Intel and AMD in battery life.
                              Afcourse it will since MacOS is so lightweight compared to Windows, it has nothing taxing the system. Nothing can be done on it except useless content consumption that can be done on any basic laptop. Windows destroys it in functionality. Most people haven't even heard of useless MacOS. Ask anybody on the Street, they'll blindly choose Windows machine.

                                Ok, just enough talking and take my money already.

                                    What are you talking about? Btw nice joke 👏👏👏

                                    No, there is only little throttling on the A14 and that result even under throttle beats all phones running cooled. Last A13 throttled 15% running the same benchmark which was not good, but so is a SD855 in the Redmi K20 Pro also tested.

                                    This is a very reliable benchmark and reviewer with very good reputation.

Even A13 in iPhone 11 Pro Max beat most phones in that benchmark except ROG Phone 3 under stress.
