iPhone 12 with A14 Bionic is nearly twice as fast as Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2

Twitter user Bastieeen_g has shared the first Geekbench 5 benchmarks for the iPhone 12's A14 Bionic chip, comparing it to the Snapdragon 865 Plus powering the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2.

A14 Bionic (Geekbench 5):

• Single-core performance - 1596

• Multi-core performance - 4027

Snapdragon 865 Plus (Geekbench 5):

• Single-core performance - 883

• Multi-core performance - 2179

The benchmarks show that Apple's A14 Bionic is almost twice as fast as the Snapdragon 865 Plus inside the Galaxy Z Fold 2.

To be fair, the Snapdragon 865 Plus performs significantly better in other devices than it does in the Galaxy Z Fold 2. But even then, Qualcomm's chip doesn't come close to the A14 Bionic. In fact, early leaks suggest its successor, the Snapdragon 875, won't close the gap either, with rumors claiming Qualcomm's next flagship can't even beat the older A13 Bionic.
