Comparisons are usually one of the first performance tests that most high-end terminals receive when they hit the market, where Samsung and Apple are the undisputed kings. On August 23, the Galaxy Note 8 was presented, a terminal from which practically all its official characteristics had already been leaked, so again the Samsung keynote was a mere procedure without much importance, contrary to what happens with Apple. In this article we are going to show you a comparison in which we can see how the Galaxy Note 8 with 6 GB of RAM and the Snapdragon 835 processor and the iPhone 7 Plus with 3 GB of RAM and the A10 perform.
As is usual in this type of test, the guys at EverythingApplePro have used applications such as Snapchat, Google Maps, Instagram, PS Express, Mario ... very light applications as well as games that require high processor graphics power such as Asphalt and Grand Theft Auto. Unlike other terminals, we can see how the 6 GB of RAM helps the Note 8 a lot when it comes to keeping most applications open without having to start them again from scratch in the second round.
In the first round, we see how both terminals have been practically on par Until an application to edit video is opened, where the Galaxy Note 8 takes much longer to encode the video than the iPhone 7 Plus, it shows that Qualcomm processors still have a long way to go if they want to get close to the performance of Apple processors. In addition, it is also noted that Android is not designed for a specific hardware as it happens with iOS. It would be interesting to have done this test with Samsung's Exynos processor, so that if the performance is similar to Qualcomm's 835 or more similar to Apple's A10. The time taken by the Galaxy Note 8 is 5 minutes and 6 seconds while the iPhone 7 Plus performs the same process in 3 minutes and 21 seconds.
A third-party app may take longer to open in one OS than in another, which does not make the hardware more efficient. You do not know what you say. Keep drinking that you can see that is what you are worth.
Back to the same . It is not that Apple processors are superior to the competition and have a year ahead of them, nor that the SnapDragon are not very powerful.
It is the operating system. The specific optimization of the operating system. If Apple chose to put Android into an iPhone and compared it to the version of iPhone with iOS, we would be seeing that the iPhone with iOS would sweep away.
It's not the hardware, it's the software. The same thing always happens . How is it possible that a brand new phone, and the most powerful and modern theory does not equal another one that is one year old? Well, because of the specific design of the operating system. And they will never win until they design something specific for hardware
If you are going to define the speed of a terminal by an app that is more optimized in iOS and that by the way almost nobody uses, the YouTuber of that video is receiving very good remuneration from Apple, with permission.
