![]() ![]() That's why we also run real-world tests so that we can get an idea of how the phones perform in everyday tasks. Qualcomm has argued that its chips are designed for sustained performance and not the short bursts favored in synthetic benchmark tests, which could explain the edge Apple enjoys. As good as the new Galaxy phones may be for gaming, these numbers suggest the iPhone can handle graphically intense games even better. More significantly, the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro produced nearly identical scores of 8,555 and 8,619, respectively - good enough for 51 FPS results. That topped S20 Plus and OnePlus 8T (23 FPS), but the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra has a better score at 42 FPS. The S21 eked out a few more frames - 5,805 - for a slightly better 35 FPS result. The Galaxy S21 Ultra posted a 5,739 frame result, which translates to 34 frames per second. We saw a similar trend here that we did with Geekbench 5 - the Galaxy S21 models beat out most of the Android competition, but couldn't keep pace with the iPhone 12. In this benchmark, phones render complex scenes in real-time, as it looks to mirror games that feature short bursts of intense activity Wild Life Unlimited runs those tests off-screen. We've been running 3DMark's Wild Life Unlimited benchmarks on phones as of late, as it offers a way to do cross-platform comparisons. ![]() That's not a gap that's going to be visible to the naked eye, but it's certainly noteworthy. The iPhone 12 Pro specifically topped the S21 Ultra's multicore score by 12%. Both the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro topped the new Galaxy flagships in both single- and multicore results. Similarly, both S21 models beat last year's Galaxy S20 Plus (811, 3,076) and its Snapdragon 865 chipset.īut the iPhone 12 remains the top-performing smartphone when it comes to Geekbench. That phone, released last summer, had a single-core score of 985 and a multicore result of 3,294 on Geekbench 5. Those beat any Android phone we've tested, including the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and its Snapdragon 865 Plus chipset. The S21 Ultra, boosted by more RAM than what's in the S21, posted even better single and multicore scores, with respective results of 1,123 and 3,440. For those committed to iOS, however, the performance gains seen with the iPhone 5 are impressive, and users have much to look forward to as developers learn to take advantage of the phone's additional processing power.The Galaxy S21 posted a single core score of 1,048 and a multicore score of 3,302 on Geekbench 5. This analysis only looked at the devices we had on hand, and thus did not examine the iPhone 5's performance relative to competing Android and Windows Phone devices. Only in the Fill Rate test does the iPad 3 beat the iPhone 5, and then only by less than 2 percent. The GLBenchmark stresses GPU capabilities and the iPhone 5 again beats all other iOS devices, including the iPad 3, which contains a quad-core GPU. The iPhone 5 again leads the pack, running the benchmark 31 percent faster than the iPad 3, and 44 percent faster than the iPhone 4S. The SunSpider Benchmark tests Web Browser JavaScript performance and the hardware that powers those Web Browsers. The iPhone 5's score of 1639 represents a 115 percent increase over the iPad 2 and 3 (which have similiar CPUs, but different GPUs), and a 159 percent increase over the iPhone 4S. As a result, the iPhone 5's A6 crushes all other iOS devices, which is in line with leaked benchmarks received prior to the phone's launch. Geekbench only tests CPU performance and does not evalaute a platform's GPU capabilities. Those averages are reported in the charts below. All tests were run three times and the results were averaged. ![]() Our test software includes Geekbench for iOS 2.3.5, the SunSpider JavaScript Benchmark 0.9.1, and GLBenchmark 2.5. Our iOS test bench consists of the following hardware, all running iOS 6 (note that we use the name “iPad 3” to refer to the third generation iPad, for simplicity’s sake): Some benchmarks leaked before the phone’s launch, but we wanted to perform our own in-house testing. With the iPhone 5 now available in many countries, it’s time to examine its performance compared to other recent iOS devices. ![]()
