Great does that mean I can do software development on an iPhone now?!
Of course not because these cross architecture benchmark comparisons are utterly pointless..
I'd been using an iPhone for nearly a year as my main computer. :/Yeah but unlike the iPhone, the MacBook can actually be used to get work done.
you poor soul...
These stats don't really do anything for me.

Finally. It is about time the A chips caught up. You'd think with all that R&D money this would have happened 5 years ago. But no, everything this company and Tim Cook does is drawn out like filling a swimming pool with water from a garden hose
You'd think by now it would match Intel i7. Especially for a thousand dollars for a freaking damn phone
Okay. Done ranting - for now. Time for me to go enjoy some avocado toast and lament my student loan situation

Well it depends on how the benchmark is designed. If they use the same tests on both I don't see why it's useless. People compare performance across architecture all the time. Nothing new, and yes these benchmarks are meaningful.And to almost every day normal user, most of my family and friends have iPhones, nobody cares about the RAM, cores, benchmarks, etc. as long as the iPhone runs smooth.
Exactly, I don't see the point in comparing them.
So it really smoked all android devices out there, poor Samsung
People doesn't seem to understand that these scores are completely meaningless when it's across OS and architecture.
Just because it's faster in geekbench, doesn't mean the CPU is actually faster than a MacBook Pro.
The general processing and instruction set that it supported is far from what we have in Macbook, and nowhere near it.
It runs fine in a mobile device, but when it scale up to do general tasking, it's gonna stall and runs like crap.
There are many reasons why Microsoft essentially abandon the Windows RT for ARM chipset.
These news site needs to stop posting **** like this and compare across completely different thing. It's misleading.
I just cant get over the name f this chip... It is something a 12 year old would come up with for their comic or something from some random SyFy channel show.
Anyway, it is tied to iOS... So as useless for anything real as the iPad Pro has been.
