Tldw

cpu clock is higher and when it boosts it can consume up to 14w, much more than A16
however it is still more efficient than the A16
gets slightly hotter
apple remains ahead of Qualcomm in cpu
performance core is around 50% faster than qualcomm 8 gen 2
efficiency cores are 2 to 4 times faster than qualcomm 8 gen 2
on the gpu side, qualcomm's 8gen2 from last year beats the iPhone by a small margin using slightly more power
GPU performance is around 10% better than the Steam Deck in Resident Evil but it can't sustain it. (Thermal throttling)
Ray tracing performance better than 8gen2
conclusion: good SoC but looks like some software tuning might be needed because the cpu boosting to 14w reduces the battery life in the pro models compared to iPhone 14.

I'm amazed how they managed to get hold of the new iPhones and run all these tests in such a small time!!

In case you don't know they also have an English channel here https://youtube.com/@Geekerwan but they tend to post videos later on.

Can I strap a Pentium II Slot 1 cooler to the back and keep that GPU perf?
