    We can even ignore A14 is same age as 865+.

      I'm not an expert so I'm asking what is difference between AnaTuTu and Gekbench testing platforms. On antutu sd chip sets are always considerably better than apple's bionic but on geekbench is viceverca opposite, bionic chip sets are considerably better.

        Shanti Dope, 18 Dec 2020Won't be possible for as long as Apple holds their own... moreWhat license? Cant they make custom cores like the kryo in the 820 if they wanted to? Now that arm has x1 cores theres probably no need for custom big cores.

          Sponge, 18 Dec 2020Everybody has to understand the A78 cores and 5nm fab offer... moreSo am I. At this point, I'm pretty sure most flagship purchasers would rather have greater battery life than extra speed. Maybe some gaming phones would push the envelope more on clock speed (presumably there'll be an 888+ with that use case in mind for mid-2021, maybe launched with the ROG Phone 4). But the 865 is quick enough still and so the 888 could and should be using its 5nm process for efficiency wins.

            Everybody has to understand the A78 cores and 5nm fab offer great efficiency gains, clearly Qualcomm could've upped the clock speeds improving performance, but the 865 was even a great performer, not much need for more speed.

            I am glad to see that Qualcomm is also paying attention to efficiency as opposed to outright speed.

                fox, 18 Dec 2020Performance on phones yeah right anything to match apple m1... moreWon't be possible for as long as Apple holds their own license to prevent others from manufacturing a chipset with CPU cores as big or even bigger than what Apple uses.
                The incredible part here is that Qualcomm and others are able to pull off this close level of performance with CPU cores that's literally half the size of what Apple uses.

                  just OK perfomance.

                  not expecting any improvements until ARM V9 and 32 bit support drop in 2022.

                    What in the hell. It's supposed to be 100k higher what happened.

                      decent improvements from previous gen imo ... also sure manufacturers will extract bit more performance than this test bench device

                        Now can't wait to see a14 vs sd 888 comparisons

                        *grabs popcorn*

                          Should have been 875 instead.

                            what happened to A14? u guys usually gloating the Geekbench score? Why not now?

                              [deleted post]next year: iphone 13 comes with MANUAL BOOK out of the box! No cable to further reduce carbon emission from cable manufacturing; still, if u need one, it could be yours for only 19.99$ !
                              next next year: iphone 14 can be bought only on iBox or Apple virtual store, to minimize environmental hazard from the production of iphone's box. In case you need one, u could book one from iBox near u only for 99.99$ ! You could also get extra 'Apple' stickers, SIM ejector, IMEI sticker, & manual book for additional 19.99$ !
