Multi-core performance is massively improved from last year. The iPhone 8's score is 80% higher than the iPhone 7's score of 5545.
Geekbench also posted Metal benchmarks for the new devices. Here the iPhone 8 ranked behind Apple's latest iPad Pros with a score of 15624. The iPhone X managed to pull slightly ahead of the iPhone 8 Plus with a score of a 15540 compared to the 8 Plus' score of 15520.
The iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus are currently available for pre-order; however, the iPhone X won't be available to pre-order until October 27th.
Pixel density matters a lot if not enough power is provided to handle the extra load. Take Samsung's method for handling its screens: they are always pushing for insanely high resolutions, yet their chips aren't fast enough to cope with it.
Yes the screen size matters. Pushing more pixels. The renob who says this is unacceptable is a moron. What did you want them to do, artificially slow down the imand 8 plus?
This is totally unacceptable... I mean for the cost of the X how come the 8 and 8 plus beat the shit out of iphone X. Shame on you apple. Shame, Shame, Shame, Shame, Shame
