iPhone 6 Outran Samsung Galaxy Note 4 in Performance Test

Due to a series of benchmarks, it has been proved lately that the iPhone 6 equipped with a dual-core A8 processor is the fastest smartphone on the market. According to some tests, it is significantly faster than its predecessor iPhone 5s. Yet how will the iPhone 6 come out compared to Samsung’s new flagship phablet?

Phonearena reviewers drew comparisons between the iPhone 6 and the Galaxy Note 4 based on a 64-bit Exynos 5433 processor. Benchmark problems included the SunSpider Javascript 0.9.1 test of the browser performance, Geekbench 3.2 test of the processor performance, and the graphics-processing test in GFXBench T-Rex and Manhattan.

In most of the tests, the iPhone 6 left its Android-based competitor behind. In the Geekbench test, the eight-core chip of the Galaxy Note 4 scored 1128 points, defeated by the brand new Apple device that got a score of 1630 points. In the single-core performance tests, the iPhone 6 was almost one and a half times more efficient than its competitor is. In the SunSpider benchmark that calculates the JavaScript processing speed, the first-party iOS 8 browser Safari also proved to be much faster (353.4 points against the competitor’s 414 points).

The GLBenchmark graphics performance test showed that the dual-core A8 chip of six GPU cores featured in the iPhone 6 provided higher frame rate. In GFXBench T-Rex, the Galaxy Note scored 1405/2112 points, whereas the score of the iPhone 6 was 2873/2384. In the GFXBench T-Rex and GFXBench Manhattan on-screen tests, the frame rate of the Apple smartphone was respectively 2 and 3 times higher than that of the Galaxy Note 4 was.

Of course, the specifications are not always the key factor when choosing a mobile device. However, it is easy to see that Apple managed to set a new performance standard in the mobile industry once again.
