For those wondering:
Geekbench CPU single/multi and GPU Metal scores.
- M1: 2,347 / 8,342 / 32,377
- M2: 2,587 / 9,669 / 44,712
- A18Pro: 3,539 / 8,772 / 32,288
So Neo is really comparable with the M1, although it has quite faster in single core speed.
- quesera 7mo agoSingle thread performance is 50% faster, which is more important for most ordinary tasks.
- adithyassekhar 7mo agoA18 Pro is generations ahead of M1 and M2 on single thread if these scores are true. Are you saying we had this incredibly overpowered silicon shipped on millions of Instagram machines? I'm physically hurting at the amount of processing power we wasted. Atleast Apple did the right thing here.
- jzymbaluk 7mo agoYea the iphone chips are hilariously overpowered for what most people use them for
- adithyassekhar 7mo agoIt's even worse, the os is too restricted for doing anything more.
- interestpiqued 7mo agoBut even better, is they actually leverage the performance per watt improvements to shrink the battery and maintain the price.
- dmitrygr 7mo agoMobile devices, to give you good battery life, operate in a “race to sleep” mode. Good performance is necessary not to compute a lot of things, but to finish your computation quickly and shut down the power hungry processors. So do not worry, the performance is not being left on the table. It is there so that your phone lasts throughout the day.
- wffurr 7mo agoA series chips also use a slightly different instruction set with memory tagging and pointer authentication. IIUC it's Armv9, which the M series chips don't support.
