      Retina? You mean a ppi over 300 which other devices already? Again Apple just stealing existing things and wowing with their marketing.
      Not to mention how long it took apple to catch up to 720, 1080, and now 1440p?

      64bit is one of the few things apple legitimately did first. Congrats.

      You do realize they were always so far behind the curve when devices like the 3G were out with 2/3mp camera with no flash or video... and couldn't even mms samsung had the Omnia HD which was the first device capable of recording or playing 720p.... with 8mp and flash. Amoled and stereo speakers. Plus Symbian that blew ios away except for a couple apps.
      Even a flip phone at the time could mms, play flash content, and utilize sd cards and sometimes a file browser....flip phones had functionality over iphone then....

Anything you mentioned before were already implemented by other OEMs, long before Apple. Apple just give it a simple name/brand so people like you could recognize the technology/features easily.

          Still lying to yourself I see. Android doesn't even have a 120 fps option in genshin impact.
          iPhone and iPad the only mobile device powerful enough for 120 fps at highest settings.

          even if iPhone can only do 70 fps in 120fps, still better than android since it can't even do 1 fps above 60 fps. Waste of 144hz screen lol.

            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EU0poZwdEjA&t=57s

            Now look at the same line here on android :

            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zy_F3IgKW1M&t=732s

            You see no line.. as he recorded when the device is cold.

            android users trying so hard to make iPhone look bad they will do anything. its sad. just can't admit the truth.

            Simply proving why golden reviewer is a fake news and a fake reviewer.

              This is the point. When he tested android phones he never 'don't test beginning of the game'.

              that is why he is a scammer. When he tests android phones he records the FPS from the beginning, when he tests iPhones he tests after 10-15 mins of heating the device up. He even admitted this himself. The fact iPhone still gets 50+ FPS on higher graphics (something android isn't powerful enough to have) even after being purposely heated up is bionic power.
              Good thing we have dame tech videos who is truthful.

              Also Notice he only ever tests iPhones now, never compares it to android. I wonder why.

              every year its the same, release fake results so android users can kid themselves LOL.
              Rememberer when universe ice said the 2100 would score 4000 multicore? LOOOL.

                            Nothing wrong with the widgets that have evolved over the years on Android.

                            "there's one aspect of the home screen that has remained painfully, abominably stagnant: widgets."

                            The fact that this was included in the article with no mention about the same boring iOS since the beginning is very clear for a massively biased article. But you do you boo.

                                2. They stress phones for maximum of 30 minutes

                                Golden reviewer
                                1. Real life test
                                2. He is a gamer and always dont test begining of game, he play game himself and test area where game is heavy and consume lot of cpu/Gpu.

                                Other reviewers mostly they test few minute when game start.


                                If i was a gamer definiteley i would use golden reviewer methods.

                                  here's your amazing Samsung device getting worst performance and throttling heavily. Doesn't even have the highest graphic options like iPhones.

                                  So before android users talk about throttling , remember it happens even worst on your devices with the slow 888.
