Did you miss when I said geekbench?

But who do the results belong to? Is that from a few devices from one or a few users? Or something else?
Results are unique from many users/devices.
But at the moment not a lot of people did the test as it's quite boring to do.
It's not really representative of "normal" usage because this test seems to use the cpu a lot, whereas for a casual user it's more burst here and here. But I think for an user who use heavy tasks it's better to have TSMC imo.

I had a 6s with a Samsung chip that lasted from 5-7 hours usage that I ended exchanging after a couple months due to the ear speaker malfunctioning. My new 6s has a Samsung chip which gives me 8-9 hours usage (all based on using it and looking at battery stats on settings). All my settings are the same-restored from a backup. I think it just depends on the individual phone or battery, not necessarily the chip only.
There's my anecdotal evidence.

INGLÉSThat's why 16GB is the best.
hello, in Spain are also the 16gb samsung , I have 4 been an apple and samsung all . I'm still with the search for a TSMC and now I amprobar with 64gb
The only model where Samsung chip is sucking is 4.7" 6S. Those phones are really underperforming in battery dept and they are also randomly glitching out. However 6S Plus and SE models have Samsung chips performing 2-3 % better. I traded my TSMC 6S Plus for a Samsung one. The screen is better and so is the battery. Go figure.
Same here. My good chip gets great two-day battery life.
Hey there,
regarding my iPhone SE Model (16 GB, space grey)
Lirum Info says: N69AP (Hardware Model), APL0898 (CPU Name), Samsung (Manufacturer of the Device's Processor)
Antutu says: APL0898 (Model), TSMC A9 (CPU Model)
Geekbench says: N69AP (Motherboard)
Is it clarified by now which model is manufactured by TSMC or Samsung?
Because the iPhone Wiki indeed says that the N69AP is manufactured by TSMC, but when you click on S8003 - which refers to the TSMC kernel - the Wiki tells us that "The part number listed on the SoC is APL1022".
I'm confused now. Because Lirum as well as Antutu tell me that I have the APL0898 Model. The iPhone Wiki tells us the following:
"The S8000 is one of the Apple A9-branded processors used in the iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus and iPhone SE. It contains a 64-bit Apple-designed CPU, and is manufactured by Samsung Electronics. The part number listed on the SoC is APL0898"
Can anybody clear up the confusion?

That does not answer my question. Both apps tell me that the APL0898 belongs to the N69AP. But the iPhone Wiki tells me that the APL0898 belongs to the N69uAP.

On the one hand, they tell us that the N69AP is manufactured by TSMC. On the other hand they tell us that the APL0898 is manufactured by Samsung. What's right, what's wrong?
