[QUOTE="jackuars, post: 921396, member: 24462"] Let me give you an example of a medium end Android smartphone vs the costly iPhone in terms of benchmarks and others.. [LIST] [*]I can get a Realme X7 Pro that has an Antutu benchmark (CPU, GPU, Memory and Storage tests) rating of 521,799 score points at $340 whereas [/LIST] I just get an iPhone 12 Pro that has an Antutu benchmark rating of 574,155 score points at $1615 at my country. For 1/5 the price of an iPhone, I can get a phone with close enough performance. That's big. And remember I'm only comparing a medium end Android smartphone, not a high end one.
