A Fun iOS Vs Android Processor Checkup

John Gruber on Daring Fireball:

Apple’s new $400 iPhone SE offers faster performance than any Android phone money can buy, but that the two-and-a-half-year-old iPhone 8 has better single-threaded performance than any Android phone today — and the iPhone 8 was the phone Apple discontinued for the new $400 iPhone SE. Apple discontinued an iPhone that, if it were an Android phone, would be the fastest in single-threaded performance on the market today.

Processor performance is definitely an area where Apple doesn’t get nearly enough credit. iPhones are blowing Android devices out of the water.
