For comparison, iPhone 5's score of <i>1601</i> is better than:<p>• 2004 Power Mac G5 - <i>1571</i><p>• Samsung Galaxy S III - <i>1560</i><p>• Asus Nexus 7 - <i>1591</i><p>• iPad (3rd Generation) - <i>766</i><p>• iPhone 4S - <i>629</i>
There has to be a memory bandwidth limit where the number of cores is rendered moot for quad-core arm7 to be slower than dual-core arm7.<p>Either that or the test is somehow being fooled, I noticed that benchmark code is updated frequently.
