This is the best example of why you should never ever trust benchmark scores Galaxy S23 Ultra easily beats the iPhone 15 Pro max not only in Apps and Games opening but even in video rendering test Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 still performs way better than the A17 Pro... at least in real lifeshow more

watch the full video

Apps and games opening doesn't reflect performance

Also SD8 Gen 2 is well optimised... For the first time ever it feels more consistent in handling things(not talking about app opening speeds, no one should bother about the milliseconds) how the background processes are happening or the way the GPU is performing... And about Samsung they worked really well with Qualcomm to deliver this... They wanted it to be overclocked (That's what you see on paper) but also the ideal power drain happening at different voltage levels is also toned down... (Compared to earlier Samsung devices, we all knew what would happen to a Samsung phone if it drops below 15%) and there are many such things happening under the hood that can't reflect on paper though... But achieving such a thing against a device which has everyone in-house is really amazing ... Kudos..

And even the thermals are really really good on the s23 ultra

I mean I’m going to balance this with Apple have just released a new phone on a new OS version so there’s plenty apps that are not best optimised vs a phone over half a year old where things should flow smoother. Either way no one uses their phones like these so it’s equally untrustworthy and both phones are literally as snappy as anyone can actually ever ask for

Are people just genuinely blind to lag or something? “Buttery smooth on both phones” yeah definitely. The amount of scroll hitching/lag my eyes are seeing here on the 15 are uncountable.

Agreed. Benchmark scores don't tell the full story. Android has improved alot over the years. Good to see

First try beating the iPhone 14 then talk about the 15 Pro.

TechTalkTV? 😂 You definitely can’t trust him.

If you don't have anything to defend 🤦
