A great demonstration of why specs don't mean squat.

I've not watched the video, one thing that stands out from the image is how cr@p the colours look on the iphone, they look all washed out.

You should watch the video then you'd see the screen cover on the iPhone. The home button looks like it's wrapped in cling film.

Trolling, pull the other one. It's a pretty funny video that's all. You're trolling me.

Haven't taken time to watch the video but assume the inferred conclusion is that the Apple device is superior - Apple make a hardware unit, perhaps right down to board component level, Apple write the OS and middleware which underpins the apps which run on their device - no surprise really that it performs more efficiently than hardware running an OS built from an open source software stack.

Fake, no way, that's exactly as expected. The video I posted showed how good the iPhone is at multitasking with a quarter of the stats and it's last years model.

So if I want to switch apps after a nanosecond and re-use apps I have already opened the Iphone 6 is faster, if I want to just go through and close all my apps the S6 edge is faster.

Really useful info, thanks.

That's right, the octocore device with treble the memory is rubbish at multitasking. Outstanding information I'd say.

Excellent, you're a sensible man. New iPhone in a few weeks and the Shamsung isn't very good.
