6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage are both better than my top of the line Pixel 3 from just 2 years ago, so that's good to see. The 730G kind of scares me though, how good is it compared to the top of the line? Are we talking unusably slow? The Pixel 3 issues seemed to be mostly RAM related, not CPU related, so maybe this combo of slower CPU and more RAM would still be faster.

Take any benchmarks with a grain of salt, of course, but it appears the 845 is only about 10% faster than the 730G on average. Still that double memory bandwidth certainly affects perceived performance a bit.
- xxpor 6y agoYeah, I always have trouble interpreting synthetic benchmarks on a phone. Obviously it's easy to see X has a score 10% higher than Y, but how does that translate to real world performance? If I'm running Google Maps nav, and then try to open Pocket Casts, will that happen immediately or will I be sitting there for 30 seconds while Android figures out what other app to OOM kill (This was a frequent problem with my Pixel 3, and it made me swear off the Pixel line even though I love the stock Android experience).
