Given that those benchmarks running on operating systems, the software(OS) matters.
>And old iPhones remain usable longer than old Android phones.
It depends which Android phone you are comparing with. If you compare with a flagship, it should be head-to-head. But i think that is because of stability/efficiency of iOS over android.
- iainmerrick 9y agoGiven that those benchmarks running on operating systems, the software(OS) matters. No, if the OS significantly slows down a benchmark, it's a bad OS. Both Android and iOS are fine in this respect. (It's a bit fuzzier for graphics tests, I admit, where driver quality comes into play.)

- iainmerrick 9y agoI don't understand why you are all talking about software and the OS. My point was that for basic benchmarks testing things like CPU speed and storage speed -- the hardware -- iPhones tend to be ahead of Android phones.
