NOTE 10+ VS IPHONE 11 pro max speed test

Speed tests mean nothing to me. As long as I can do what I need on my phone speed is irrelevant.
Agreed. Who cares if one phone can open an app a half second faster than another. What really matters is how smooth apps run when using them. Given the choice, I'd choose smoother/faster in app performance over loading speeds.
 
Yes, the iPhone x couldn't hold much in it's memory and kept restarting apps on many of those speed tests. The XS faired better against the note 9 though.

Even my XS Max has a habit of reloading apps, especially Facebook and Instagram.

On my Note 10+, i do have an older copy of Instagram installed on it simply because I use an app that allows me to save any users Instagram pictures on my phone. A few versions of Instagram made that difficult until the next version so I just stayed an old version. That version never reloads. I can go to someone page and find it still open to that page 12 hrs later.

However, I occasionally do have apps reload on any Android device I have, regardless of the RAM they have installed, my Note 10+/S10+, both with 12GB RAM included.

Well then I figured iPhones the choice. It’s smooth as hell. Although I can say the. It’s feels smooth also from what I’ve used.
 
It’s all well boasting that Apple’s processors have slightly higher scores on benchmarks which don’t mean anything to the average user. What matters is how it fares in day to day performance, gaming and uploading/downloading. In those categories there is no discernible difference between iPhones and Androids.

I might disagree on the gaming factor. Some devices may lag at certain points in a game for a variety of reasons. I'm not going to get into which ones do better or worse.

I think iPhones have the edge in operations performance (scrolling, etc.) that is noticeable upon changing platforms but quickly becomes unnoticeable. Just one of many pluses and minuses. Like the screens.....yellow screens (500 posts now on MacRumors), pulse width modulation issues, headaches. BTW, funny how the iPhone adherents like to argue that their screens are better than Samsung screens but we don't have anywhere near the screen complaints they do.
 
The problem with going off of raw scores in bench marks is that it doesn't tell the whole story.

It's like comparing a V8 engine to a V12 engine. V12 engines tend to have the higher raw power. But it doesn't always come down to raw power. Other factors like the transmission, the differential, the tires, and most importantly, the driver all factor into the overall performance of the car.

Back in the '90s, people would get all in a tizzy about the benchmark results of this computer system or that computer system.

Even before personal computers people got into a tizzy (and still do) over engine performance big block versus small block.

So take raw benchmark scores with a grain of salt.

Do iPhones generally beat most other phones in benchmark scores? Yes. Do you really need to care? No.
 
There always more to bench test against other phones but makes for great topic to talk about , have laughs and thoughts . But will this affect anyone day to day , I doubt it .
