Here with me.
I have four phones with the best processors
at the moment, the iPhone 14 Pro with the A16 Bionic,
the new Pixel 7 with the Tensor G2, the Rog Phone 6 Pro
with the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 and the Rog Phone 6D with the Dimensty 9000+.
These four phones I have done several tests, benchmarks
synthetic, throttling tests, temperature measurements,
speed test in the system and in-game tests.
My goal with this video is to compare its performance in different
benchmarks, but also in real tests of our day to day life.
And before we start I want to make a disclaimer
and that is that both the Pixel 7 and the iPhone 14 Pro, I bought them.
myself with the sponsor of the video, my wallet, but the other two from Asus.
he sent them to me
the company without any conditions or payment on the back.
And this is important to be as transparent as transparent as possible, because
we're talking about a benchmark video and, I think it's important.
Having said that, in order to compare the performance of cell phones in benchmarks
I usually use all these applications, but on the iPhone only these
are available.
However, with Antutu it is not possible to compare the results
between systems, so we are left with only with two in GeekBench
CPU test we see the superiority of the A16 Bionic
in single and multicore with the Tensor G2
at the bottom, while in 3D Mark a graphical benchmark
the results remain almost in the same order.
That Apple has the most powerful processor, well, I'm not surprised,
but that the Dimensity 9000+ is so good. it does.
And you'd be even more surprised if it showed you the Antutu or PC Mark results,
which is another general benchmark and mainly in the tests
GeekBench graphs which are are far superior to those of the Snapdragon.
With these first results we can now create a ranking
of the best processors, in the first place with the A16 Bionic
and the last one is the Tensor G2, but something very important
and that we forget to analyze when we do benchmarks
is the performance of these processors over a long period of time.
On Android phones I usually use this application
which I then modify some settings and let it run for 30 minutes
and this was the result on all three Android devices.
But on the iPhone we don't have this application,
so we have to go back to 3D Mark and use the stress tests.
And here you can see how the A16 Bionic after
of the first loop, its performance drops considerably.
Contrary to both Rog Phone that maintain their performance,
mainly the one with the MediaTek processor
while the Pixel 7 also suffers from some throttling,
but keeps its results very even, so
if we consider all these values, the device that suffered the most throttling
was the iPhone, with a performance drop of 26%.
Some of you may be thinking that this comparison
is not very fair because I am comparing them
with two gamers phones that have better cooling.
But if you really think about it
this comparison is between the best of each platform.
Still, I think this argument is valid
and that's why that I did the same test on the Zenfone 9,
which as you can see is a pretty casual and compact phone
and in this case the throttling did was much more aggressive,
losing 47% of its initial performance and being below the Pixel 7.
So if these Qualcomm processors
without good cooling they get quite warm.
And note that I am using the new version, the Snapdragon 8+ and
not the 8 Normal which as I have already shown you in other videos, has the same problem.
But come on, that one
of the consequences of throttling is the drop in performance, but the other one
that you will feel in your hands is the heating of the device.
With the iPhone I was able to achieve values of 47 degrees Celsius.
With the Rog Phone 6 Pro at 49,
while with the other the value was very similar.
The Pixel 7 was the one that got the least hot with about 43.5 degrees and the Zenfone 9
with the Snapdragon got up to 56.5 so it was warm.
If we take this data and compare it with 3D Mark,
we see that the hotter it gets, the higher the the greater the throttling,
with the exception, of course, of gamers phones phones that have better cooling.
But the reality is that you're almost never you're going to use your phone 100%.
What's more, all these tests we've done don't represent actual usage,
whether it's opening applications, rendering a video or playing a game.
That's why one of the tests I usually do is to organize
the applications in a specific order that I will then use to open twice.
During the first lap I see how fast
the applications are opened, while in the second,
as the system has kept them in the background.
And in this case, as the Pixel 7 has been the fastest in both laps,
while the iPhone 14 Pro the slowest.
The difference between all these devices is minimal and no one will notice it.
And I think the results we have with the iPhone are due to its animations,
which by default you can see that they're a little bit slower than the ones we have on Android
and even if you reduce them they are still a little bit more noticeable.
But come on, the Pixel 7, even having the worst benchmarks, manages
to be the fastest in this test, but when
we do some video rendering, it is again the worst.
For this test I simply rendered one of my reviews
on all devices with Adobe Rush
and the Qualcomm processor processor was the best followed by the iPhone.
Personally I don't understand why of such differences in this test,
but if you have any theories you can leave it in the comments.
And to finish, we have to talk about games,
more precisely Genshin Impact.
This is the most demanding game I know and if a phone is capable of running it,
it does.
60 frames per second, as it is able to run any other run any other without problems.
For this test I have set the graphics settings to maximum
and played for five minutes before I started to analyze it
with GeekBench, an application that counts frames, among other things.
This way, if there is throttling, I will notice it and I will also be
allows me to compare the results in a more direct way.
The first cell phone I tested was the Pixel 7, which, after one minute
you can see how its performance drops considerably and only after
after finishing the level is that it goes back to 60 frames per second.
At the same time the Rog Phone 6 Pro with the Snapdragon 8+
Gen 1 manages to maintain 60 frames without any problems.
I also got to test the Zenfone 9 which suffered so much throttling
and I haven't had any problems with this game.
And the same goes for the MediaTek Dimensity 9000+,
which for some reason registered 61 frames per second, so
if it's going very well and you may have noticed that I didn't say anything about the iPhone.
And I haven't been able to analyze it with Game Bench
because apparently it's not yet not yet compatible with iOS 16.
Even so, I am 100% sure that your processor is capable of running
Genshin Impact at 60 frames per second or more, since in your settings
is the only one compatible with high refresh rate and even after
playing for several minutes, I haven't felt any slowdown
of performance performance or excessive warm-up.
When the application is compatible with iOS 16, I will test again.
and I will post the results on Twitter, so don't forget to follow me
over there.
And having said all this, I think we can draw two interesting conclusions.
The first thing is that we don't need
the best processor to have a good have a good experience in the system.
And this is what we saw with the Tensor G2 in the speedtest.
And the second is that the more powerful a processor is,
the better the heat dissipation should be.
Otherwise, what happened to the Zenfone 9 in the to the Zenfone 9 in the throttling test.
Any of these devices.
It will give you a good user experience and I think the brands have to find
the balance between a good experience and the power of the processor.
And I think that's exactly what Google is doing with the Tensor G2.
Okay, it's not a super powerful processor, but it's a much better optimized
the system and that's noticeable in day-to-day tasks.
day and also in games where it gets a good balance.
The Snapdragon is very powerful, but it also gets hot
if it doesn't have good cooling.
And the Dimensity 9000+ fucking yeah. that surprised me.
Apple is really cool, it's got a super cool processor,
but the cooling is not the best and suffers throttling as you have seen.
But well, I hope you liked this video and my conclusions
and if you have any other you can leave it in the comments.
See you in the next one. Bye bye.
