>powerful android for $200
Even the $1500 Android flagships are completely outclassed by that SE.
On CPU:
>Overall, in terms of performance, the A13 and the Lightning cores are extremely fast. In the mobile space, there’s really no competition as the A13 posts almost double the performance of the next best non-Apple SoC.

and GPU:
>On the GPU side of things, Apple has also been hitting it out of the park; the last two GPU generations have brought tremendous efficiency upgrades which also allow for larger performance gains. I really had not expected Apple to make as large strides with the A13’s GPU this year, and the efficiency improvements really surprised me. The differences to Qualcomm’s Adreno architecture are now so big that even the newest Snapdragon 865 peak performance isn’t able to match Apple’s sustained performance figures. It’s no longer that Apple just leads in CPU, they are now also massively leading in GPU.

- LoSboccacc 6y ago"a cheap porches is faster than an expensive corvette" yeah, that's about the point one slowly backs away from the thread and let fanboy do their things
- valuearb 6y agoNo a cheap Porsche is a much better driver than an expensive Corvette. Porsche is about the driving experience as much as speed.
- LoSboccacc 6y agothat's exactly the point, not everyone purchase by driving experience, and value is subjective, don't know why you're contrarian to the statement. the point is that nothing of value can come from arguing subjective points.
- valuearb 6y ago“Better driver” /= “faster”
- LoSboccacc 6y agowhat has that anything to do with my statement?
- valuearb 6y agoIt’s exactly your statement.
- LoSboccacc 6y agothere weren't many words, how come you missed the point completely?
- valuearb 6y agoPoor writing on your part?
- vbezhenar 6y agoYou don't need best CPU and GPU to chat in whatsapp and make some selfies. Also you conveniently did not mention RAM which is more important for good user experience in typical smartphone apps.
- samtheprogram 6y agoAFAICT, given the lack of Java on iOS, applications tend to use less memory than their Android counterparts, which is what has enabled Apple to put less RAM in their phones for years.
- valuearb 6y agoIOS has always done a lot more with less memory than Android, by design. No JVM, lots of memory maximizing OS features.
- throwaway2048 6y agoNone of this has anything to do whatsoever with margins for apple.
- tguedes 6y agoThey offer the same chip on their 1k USD smartphone as on their $399 phone. For many people who like iOS but don't want to spend a lot on a phone, they no longer need to spend $600+ USD to get iOS, which is a lot of people.
