- Okay, so let's do an experiment
with the new Galaxy S9 Plus.
Now I wanted to see how it,
and the Snapdragon 845 inside of it,
handled uh apps and a speed test
compared to the other flagship devices
that are already out.
Namely, the iPhone X,
the Pixel 2 XL
The Mate 10 Pro,
OnePlus 5T,
and the Note 8.
So, to test it I opened the same app
on every device um
all connected to the gigabit WiFi,
all with the same accounts on them,
and all just kind of lined up at the same time,
and then I took that footage and I timed it
so that when I was opening each of the apps
is when it starts for every single one of them,
so we can see which opens faster,
which renders faster,
et cetera.
Now of course this isn't
a very scientific test,
like duh,
but it is the closest thing that I could think of
to replicate like real world use
that was able to be done
across all of the devices no matter what.
So if you do by the end of this video have a
better suggestion on how to do a speed test like this,
please let me know in the comments,
and I'd love to hear from you.
Otherwise though,
let's see how they did.
First, we'll start with Twitter.
And boom!
We can see that the S9 Plus,
actually beat all of the other devices,
Just barely beating the 5T and the 2XL,
but beating 'em.
Next up Facebook.
And this time it took about two seconds
uh so it's
in the middle of the road,
I would say for Facebook,
still beating out the iPhone 10,
and the Mate 10 Pro.
Um actually losing though,
to its sibling the Note 8,
which is weird.
Next up,
You Tube
and this time it just beat
the Note 8,
um it did beat the Pixel 2 XL,
and the 5T is the only one that beat it
so it's number two.
Next we'll do
Google Maps
and
it tied
for first with the Pixel 2 XL
which is pretty good!
Okay next we'll test some games.
Pokemon Go
which is known for taking a while to load usually.
Oh!
Uh already done on the iPhone 10,
5T
And
The Note 8 just beats the S9 Plus.
Huh.
Next let's try
Mario Run.
And
comes in second,
again,
oddly enough losing to the Note 8.
Again.
But still it's at the top.
And finally,
Sonic Dash.
Which it then
beats the Note 8
and
is just shy
of the iPhone 10.
There we go!
Quick little speed test,
um some interesting things we can draw from that,
one it it is a top tier device.
Hands down it beat most of the devices
or was at least in that top tier
and again remember,
these are the fastest devices of 2017
like literally the top tier,
I put them against a bunch of other phones
to even put them into this bracket.
So the fact that it's up there with most of them,
not really that surprising,
considering it has a newer processor,
and all this other stuff.
but that's great.
Uh it did lose a couple of times
to the Pixel 2 XL and the One Plus 5T
which is also kind of
uh expected just because they are very stock
versions of Android,
and the One Plus 5T even even more so
is like a very optimized
version of stock Android
so that's
always super snappy.
Um the thing that was a little weird,
was that there was a couple times where it
lost,
only just,
but lost
to the Note 8.
I can't explain that at all.
Maybe you guys have a theory.
Let me know in the comments below,
otherwise, hope you guys liked this,
let me know also in the comments below,
if there's a different type of speed test
you'd like to see me do,
or what you thought of this,
et cetera,
um always always appreciated hearing from you guys,
