iPhone 5 Benchmarks

For those, who are interested in raw power: https://www.macrumors.com/2012/09/1...r-in-geekbench-showing-dual-core-1ghz-a6-cpu/
Does that mean, new iPhone 5 is faster than 2003 Power Mac G5, which is benched at 1000 pts? In that size, one word: Amazing.

Benchmarks can be easily faked. I'd wager this one was fake, although I'd like to be wrong.

If Apple tells 2x the performance, they usually are serious, not like many others. 2x would mean at least 2x629, which is 1248. I think this result may be pretty real as they also twiced the RAM.

According to the site, the dual-core iPhone 5 scores 1601 in Geekbench. In contrast, the european quad-core (non-LTE) Samsung Galaxy S3 scores 1560, or up to 1780 if you disable power saving and other functionality. The U.S. LTE version of the Galaxy S3 (which has a dual-core processor) scores significantly less, around 1400-1450.

Holy crap.

Higher score than all other devices on the site.

That's amazing. It really is.

But, how did they test it if the phone isn't out yet?

If the results are legit, the iPhone5 is the fastest LTE phone in the world by a ~15% margin. The non-LTE version of the Galaxy S3 (quad-core) still turns in slightly higher scores if you disable power management, notifications, and other background services.
