[deleted post]Haha apple haters on seeing from specs. You need to experience both platforms to believe it. Even with less specs, apple phones perform just as well as android and sometimes even more. See technick mi 10 ultra vs 12 pro max speed test, apple beats Xiaomi quite badly. What matters isn't specs, but the experience and the results you get out of it. What's the use of 16GB RAM if the device keeps closing apps?

    [deleted post]Then why did Iphone 12 Pro Max always wins every battery test despite having the smallest battery at 60hz on all phones? Can you explain that? See technick. I am not a haters, i am stating a fact. I don't mind ios or android, i want the one that is superior. You need to learn more, android kiddo. Snapdragon 888 reached 65°C on Mi 11, even more on gaming phones. That is an oven. Iphone barely even reaches 50°C. I am stating a fact, i am not a fanboy or haters

        [deleted post]In geekbench, androids are losing too much bro. Antutu cannot be compared as they rum different softwares. Don't see benchmarks kiddo. Read information before typing or replying. Apple chips has higher peak performance and is the most power efficient in all battery tests. But they throttle easily to prevent overheating. See reviewers for yourself. Apple chips are 1 generations ahead terms of performance and the best for power efficiency (only rivaled by Kirin chips)

                Cpu can handle a lot more than 50 or 60 deg Celsius.
                Not sure if where you got 50 deg C for battery temperature.

                  That is not a representation of other Sd888 phones on the market which throttle when overheated.

                    Spec sheet says 300bhp, real world output is 250hp.
                    Is it okay??

                      the 888 is already showing how bad it is at battery consumption, turning up clock speed of it will make it worse, and the endurance could go lower than 70hrs for god sake

                        They are using the chip, they are the one who decides how much cpu power they would use. downclocking isnt illegal.

                          Android-Authority, 28 Apr 2021Lol what are you talking about?? Even the 120W fast chargin... moreWhat am I talking about?

                          I'm talking about the snap 888 making battery temperatures reach 50 plus degrees while gaming which is far more threatening than what fast charges do

                          While fast chargers raise temperatures for only a few minutes

                          Gaming sessions can be longer at at the temperatures the snap 888 is more dangerous

                          So what am I saying? I am saying the chipset itself is more of a hazard than even ultra fast charging that people cry about all the time

                          Here is a video

                            Bigmeme, 28 Apr 2021Lol all phones except s21 series are heating upThat's because Samsung got caught downclocking the Snapdragon 888 out of the box.
                            Another reason why It has better battery life than its competitors.

                              IpsDisplay, 28 Apr 2021People are scared of ultra fast charging damaging batteries... moreLol what are you talking about?? Even the 120W fast charging on black Shark 4 pro stayed at around 46°C which was similar to other phones with lower Watt charging.

                                Anonymous, 28 Apr 2021No. It's fault of Qualcomm and their designers. How?

                                  People are scared of ultra fast charging damaging batteries but this snap 888 raises battery temps in the 50° and even 60 my god!!!

                                  The overheating is bad enough

                                  But the real problem is the efficiency this thing climbs to 10W ...... 10 fricking Watts when it gets proper cooling as in the Lenovo dual 2

                                  Motherboards got burnt, the snap 888 is a bad soc in my opinion


                                  Unless they optimize this 888 plus is gonna try

                                  Plus models are not really good anyways as they usually just throttle back to the non

                                      SD888 is already scorching hot and battery hog as it is.

                                      Just upping the Mhz frequency (and voltage) will only make it worse.

                                      PASS!

                                        I hope.it is a TSMC N5 refresh Sd888...meaning at least 30% less power needed to reach same performance
