World's first iPhone 6S put through its paces via Geekbench

[asim1999]

 

Looks like the Snapdragon 810 yet has another killer on its tail. 

 

 

 

The benchmark used was Geekbench, and the iPhone 6s managed to obtain a 2,292 single-core score, and 4,293 for the multi-core run. A subsequent run seems to have turned up 2,413 in the single-core benchmark, which is a lot more than past Apple devices. The closest is the iPad mini with Retina Display, which managed to score 1,384 with its A7 chip.

Now the only thing missing is GPU tests. Looks like it will trade blows with the Z5 Compact though

I don't think that iPhone 6S CPU was meant to compete with Snap 810 but with 820.

And here is the pic

Well i am just saying that the Z5 Compact has some serious competition performance-wise. Dont know about graphics but the Z5 Compact already beats out the iPad Air 2, i am assuming the 6s will do even better

It doesn't trade blows with the Z5 Compact (which has an 810) purely by the fact it's achieving this score with just 2 cores. I bet some folks in the Snapdragon design team (and even the Exynos team) are crapping their pants now, seeing how their fancy 8-cores get eaten alive by a "measly" 2 core chip which oh by the way destroys everything on the market with that single-core score, which is quite frankly the most important score of the 2.

 

As for the GPU: Apple's own picture they used when they talked about the M9 being inside the A9 somewhat showed the design of their chip, and it's pointing towards a 6-core GPU. 2 less than the iPad Air 2 with the 8-core A8X, but 2 more than the A8's quad-core GPU. Expect the results to lie there in between. Or not. We're talking about Apple here. We've been surprised before.

Of course it will do better on GPU tasks, it has to push 1/4th of the resolution of the iPad Air 2.

Well seeing as the Z5 Compact beats the Air 2, i think they will perform within 10-15% of each other due to Apple's amazing software optimisation (on its newer devices anyway)

Apple = Intel.

Qualcomm = AMD.

Apple and Intel, the 2 companies with mobile chips that make sense.

I though Intel's were power hungry for their performance? or am I out to lunch...

Few years ago yes. They have made HUGE strides in the past few years.

You do know those 8 cores are actually 4 powerful ones and 4 power efficient(thus quite slower) ones, right? BIG.little Also, the Tegra K1 was reported to get around 2000 in single core tests.
