It does if people can still get their work done on it. Which they do.
One question I have is why do all these Samsung customers keep showing up at the Apple Store? And why are they all such bad actors?
Difference is Apple knows what hardware it’s going into. If Snapdragon made a phone with optimized version of android it wouldn’t need these extra cooling features and other nonesense. Apple knows the entire line, so the chip is perfect for what it eventually is used in.
And despite snapdragons R&D the consensus since the 64bit A7 has seemed to be that Apple is a year ahead. I do agree at this point thought that it’s OS more than speed that compels people.

Interesting that everyone I know with an MBA is failing or barely making it in business. It's the college drop-outs that are successful business-wise.
Tim Cook earned his MBA from Duke University.
Jeff Williams, who replaced Tim Cook as COO also has an MBA from Duke.
Isabel Ge Mahe, VP and Managing Director of Greater China, rebooted sales in China. She has one from UC Berkeley.

It looks the same like any iphone (in terms of finish). Accept it or not, that does not change the truth.
Look I'm not anti-Apple here, I love the company and literally just said I'd take their chip all day, but do you want me to go pull the Antutu benchmark where the $530 OnePlus 6 beats the iPhone X using a Snapdragon 845 that isn't water-cooled? Again, the differences here are going to be negligible in real-world use.
I will absolutely agree that Apple has the preferred chip and optimized software combination, but you're not going to convince me that users will notice an impactful difference at the end of the day in this era of the smartphone.
I was LMAO when the Samsung glitch was randomly sending users pictures to contacts!
I would certainly hope a 2018 flagship could compete with a 2017 one. I do agree though most wont notice. It doesn’t change the fact that most seem to think Apple is a year ahead. Which has helped enable Face ID, which some have said is two years ahead.
What a predictable (and lame) rebuttal. You're missing the point, so I'll just end the debate here.
I don't want to carry around a pencil with my phone. I got enough junk in my pockets.
Look at the rest. The advancements in chip tech have helped Apple in more than just speed. I have a habit of not finishing my thoughts before I post.
And most importantly Samsung should focus getting software updates out sooner than the release of their next phone.
Haha that's fine, I do the same. To be fair, we might be closer to being on the same page than we think because I definitely agree Apple is ahead of the curve.
But but but the radio commercial said the Galaxy S9 was the fastest smartphone ever this has to be fake news /s
In all reality though, if I’m not mistaken the two year old iPhone 7 still matches it in terms of single core performance. Samsung is falling pretty far behind by technology they seem to think is ‘inferior’.
Are you talking about how Apple intentionally throttles Qualcomms chips so they dont look better then Intels?
And since everyone is so stuck on "geekbench" and "benchmarks." Ill leave this here...
Samsung wishes it was Apple so bad. These ads are funny and help Apple more than they help Samsung.
lol the pen one's pretty good. "oh, cause you don't got one..." "oh, no, i have a finger. i have all ten fingers"
