2-core iPhone 6s productive 8-core Samsung Galaxy Note 5 and certain models of MacBook – World Apple in one site

While in Android-medium already mastered the 8-core system, the engineers apple brandy that year in a row improving chips with a minimum number of cores. Thoughtful tests new flagship Apple smartphone show – the company has achieved in his craft dangerous heights, thereby again raises the industry kind of ultimatum.

iPhone 6S in comparison to its predecessors

For the official publication kupertinovtsy use conveniently streamlined expressions are intended to emphasize the unprecedented growth of the A9 CPU power compared to its closest ancestor A8. The first practical experiments conducted authoritative expert John Gruber showed that without guile is not done. According to the test results 3DMark Ice Storm Unlimited, focused on the analysis of the performance of GPU, performance iPhone 6 up 16,257 points, and iPhone 6s clocked up 28 403 points. Arithmetic help us – an increase of just under 80%, but not declared 90% or more.

Even more interesting things with a comparison of the overall performance of the old and new models of iPhone, both of which are equipped with dual-core processors. When banal dispersal of each core could count on a linear increase in performance in synthetic tests, in the range of 70-80%, of the kind indicated by Apple. In practice, Gruber, after a thorough sweep of the test Geekbench 3 found that iPhone 6s shows a 63% increase in power over the iPhone 6 in boot mode single core, 2559 versus 1553, respectively. And “only” 53% in the multi-core test, 4375 vs 2859, which is consistent with the performance test of memory – is the superiority of the new smartphone over the old 1.5 and 1.4 for single and multi-mode.

iPhone 6s – the most productive smartphone in the world

To compare the model with brother overgrown iPhone 6s Plus it makes no sense, since they are both equipped with the same chip the A9 equipped with 2 GB of RAM. The latter factor, in terms of aggregate according to analysts, has become the most important breakthrough of the year in terms of increased productivity gadgets. It is obvious that Apple is no longer able to squeeze into the framework of the “permanent” 1 GB of RAM, and it indicates the willingness of the company to venture to the changes.

A good example are the results of the same test Geekbench 3 and 3DMark Ice Storm Unlimited, in which the opponent has acted as a universal device Samsung Galaxy Note 5. This unit has on-board 8-core monster called the Exynos 7420 – perhaps the most perfect processor for Android-gadgets to the latest bulletins. When testing the GPU Korean smartphone gives 24,600 points against 28,403 at the iPhone 6s . The difference is obvious, but it is very small when you look at the huge gap between the two smartphone models of iPhone 6, which gained only 16,257 points.

To secure victory iPhone 6s over a competitor from Samsung needed to pass the test Geekbench 3, but the results have been somewhat contradictory. In operation, one core benefit of the system is uniquely apple and titanic, 2529 against 1431, almost 77%, but in this regard, Note 5 inferior even to last year’s iPhone 6 with its 1 553 different picture when assessing the well-coordinated work of all nuclei – by dialing 4375 points, the flagship of Apple nearly lost an opponent who reached the figure of 4371 points. It is appropriate to evaluate the performance boost when switching between modes, which in the case of the iPhone 6s reaches only 72-73%, while the capacity of 5 Galaxy Note when using all cores tripled. Given that 8 cores definitely more than 2, Apple engineers still honorably emerged victorious from this match. But also demonstrated to the world how great imbalance – A9 chip acts like a renegade from the world of multicore processors.

iPad Pro will move from the pedestal MacBook’i?

John Gruber does not have stood among fellow researchers had limited match type gadgets. In particular, he wondered – bypass 1,8 GHz processor iPhone 6s in terms of 1.1 GHz chip installed in the MacBook models spring 2015 year? After all, fundamentally different device, different architecture, iOS vs. OS X and more As a tool for the analysis used all the same well-deserved test Geekbench 3, allowing to evaluate the performance of the three basic criteria and form the total number of points.

It turned out that the flagship of the iPhone does not have respect for fellow kupertinovskim laboratories, with a rounded figure in 2500 brazenly ahead modification MacBook with 1.1 and 1.2 gigahertz chips (2295 and 2420). But it is in the mode of using a single core, connecting the complete set of nuclei all fall into place, laptops gain 5268, 5018 and 4464 points. Smartphones “only” 4370 – he breathes in the back of the modest modifications of the most perfect of all created by MacBook.

Interesting is the situation, in terms of performance PHABLET openly opposed kinship laptop, despite the fact that the value of iPhone 6s about half. But on the way iPad Pro, created to fill a niche between communicators and workstations. According to the official website, as opposed to the iPhone 6s , it is equipped with a mysterious chip A9x, and the presence of the tablet is rumored to just 4 GB of RAM. Echoing the words of Gruber, we all can not wait the results of the practical tests – the probability of a new global balance of power in the industry.
