@GSMARENA: These two statements about video quality are a bit confusing. Could you clarify more precisely?

"The Dolby Vision information is saved outside of the video stream, so the video will look normal to any non-HDR player/screen and will be color-boosted on any Dolby Vision-compatible player and display."
"If your display isn't Dolby Vision-capable - Dolby Vision original files will still play, but they would appear with low dynamic range and duller colors if compared to non-HDR or converted files."

At first, you say they will just look normal. But few sentences later it says, it will appear with low dynamric range and duller colors? 😅

Storage speed is not a problem with iPhones. In EverythingApplePro's iPhone 12 pro vs. iPhone 11 pro vs. iPhone XS speed test, the iPhone had a 28 second ram score. That's just as fast, if not faster than comparable androids with UFS 3.1 storage and 12GB of RAM.

Other components like Storage speed, GPU, RAM, ui, etc matter a lot.
Which are all taken into account in Antutu where your iPhone fails badly.

For example, Fast processor combined with slow storage will lead to slow performance no matter how fast cpu is.
So GeekBench is useless other than some bragging rights.

Does apple really care about what some random benchmark ranks their phones in? No.

Just as many people would buy iPhones whether geekbench existed or not.

Geekbench calculates CPU only, which apple consistently beats out androids, thus it scores higher in geekbench.

Beethoven, 04 Nov 2020Mobile gaming is the future 😋 Check you're apps store man 😂 gaming apps is the most pr... moreYou forgot to say which mobile gaming apps.

For example, look at the top mobile games when you search google.
80% of the games are pretty light games.

https://www.google.com/search?q=most+popular+mobile+games&rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS919US919&oq=Most+popular+mobile+&aqs=chrome.0.0i457j0j0i20i263j69i57j0i20i263j0l3.11974j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

Which are candy crush, among us, minecraft, clash of clans, clash royale, fruit ninja, subway surfers, etc.

The other 3 heavy games are genshin impact, fortnite, and call of duty:mobile. Fortnite and call of duty are on heavy decline, so the only heavy new game is genshin impact, out of like 20 game titles.

The games that sell on mobiles aren't heavy destroyer RPG games that you do on a console or hardcore gaming desktop.

These games are games that anybody can squeeze in a little after their work or school.

The actual hardcore games are gonna stay on gaming PCs/consoles because as phones get more powerful, PCs also get more powerful.

Plus, 2.2 billion smartphone gamers out of 3.5 billion smartphone users means that you're not even counting the other 47% of smartphone users that don't game at all.

On the other hand, every one of those smartphone users is actively using his/her smartphone to open apps. And apple beats the competition in that sector.

Tell me how many good games (with demanding graphics) there are in the Play/App store that does not hit a paywall, no ads, etc.

The reason why mobile games exist is because they're accessible.

All the greatest parts of the Android OS are absent on iOS.

SizN80, JDK are frustrated that their favorite brand isn't the most technically advanced while being handicapped instead.
Like a handicapped guy watching someone run, they are simply jealous.

Nothing wrong with stating how our android devices are, especially with all latest cutting edge tech,combined with a superior ecosystem of apps,
