        I care antutu benchmark more than geekbench in case of smartphones. More score in single/multi core geekbench score doesn't mean u will get stable performance,
        while antutu score is a mixture of cpu, GPU, memory, ux.

          Remember, this is a pre-production unit.

          Final scores should be around the 4000 mark.

            So why android fans keep on using antutu to prove android superiority is beyond me.

                        Still with 50+ bloatware. And sd for USA only. And unable to use the most powerful smart watch. Since s21 series only supports newest smart watch generation.

                            Anonymous, 04 Dec 2020GeekBench seems to know that their benchmark is not an honest cross-platform comparison. If yo... moreWho voted this nonsense up?

                            You mean that they renamed the "windows+linux OS" section as just processor benchmark? And you immediately discard it as an "honest cross-platform" bench because YOU expected something else in that chart? Did you know that you can manually set comparisons between any CPU on that website quite easily?

                            And even when there is no chart to do a quick comparison, you can actually find ARM processors under the top results (the M1 is on page 14 of single and a lot of iPhone 12 on page 999).

                            I don't really get it. How is the mislabeling of a chart important? And what that has any relevanse to the original post I was refering to?
