Ah, CPUs\u2026<\/p>\n

I am not a true fan of Geekbench. It is a good tool, but results are often varied and not a true representation of a CPU\u2019s true power. Most PC hardware review sites do not use Geekbench for any metrics. The only reason I have done it here is because it is the only tool that is fully cross-platform. macOS, Windows, iOS, iPadOS, and Android. It is at least something that is quantitive and comparative. So with that in mind, I ran GeekBench 5 on every device I have so see how my devices scale from the very slow to the very fast.<\/p>\n

Which is faster? One would say, \u201cThe iMac for sure\u2026.\u201d, but others might say \u201ciPhone 11 Pro\u201d because it feels faster. Benchmarks, especially generic benchmarks, are just a way to measure approximate performance differences between devices. As we can see, my iPhone 11 Pro Max has a higher single score score than my iMac. I would venture that my iMac would beat the iPhone in any real-world tasks handily. I guess it is all perspective.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
