Is it only coming with the white face? I saw this on twitter. I think it looks smarter with the black.

iPhone 7 Plus Destroys Samsung Galaxy S8 in Speedtest

A new video posted by popular YouTuber, EveryThingApplePro, puts Apple’s iPhone 7 Plus against Samsung’s latest and greatest phone, the Samsung Galaxy S8.

In the video, EverythingApplePro conducts a series of “real world” tests in which he starts by going through a list of applications including ones like Snapchat, Netflix, and a variety of video games. While at first it looks like the S8 is somewhat able to keep up, it begins to lose by a wide margin once he gets into game loading. The kicker is when he goes to render a 4-minute 4K video in which the iPhone 7 Plus is able to do it in half the time of the Galaxy S8. Even when it came to something as small as boot times, the iPhone 7 Plus was significantly faster than the Galaxy S8.

Can you imagine what the A11 will be like?

I have come to realise a very long time ago, that comparing things like this where the Apple have proprietary software which basically means apps are "built for", is as useful as comparing the "superior" hardware from Android devices to that of Apple. It's a well known fact that Android is not as refined as Apple, and not close as efficient.

Another flaw in this test is assuming the apps on each device is identical, which of course it isn't, and in most cases aren't even built by the same team in the company.

No, but the end result is clear. One is faster than the other for real life usage.

Not that I ever watch 4k video on my phone.

Also remember these are test phones the people has, could not ve final version of the software.

But true, it's faster for the reason I stated. Built for. Don't worry, I'm not trying to put the phone down at all, just saying why it's faster.

I couldn't care less. I use strictly Apple products when it comes to my personal life.

But, shouldn't this "superior hardware" compensate for the lack of refinery and efficiency on Android?

The problem with the high end Android OEM's is that they've gone ape**** in terms of screen resolution and that is about the spec that stands out in comparison to Apple.

The A10 SoC is still the gold standard some 7 months later.

Is there an equivalent to the back button of Android on iOS. Been doing development for both and find the lack of that frustrating.

Not sure if this has been answered.. Most apps that has a back option, you swipe from the left edge of the screen, to the right.

So if one app, say Tapatalk, opened a browser and I go "back" on iOS, will it close the browser and go back to Tapatalk?
 
Here's an example, link opened in the email app (Spark) which opens the browser. If I click the back button in the left corner I go back to the email app (Spark).

So the app must support it, it's not an OS function?

It's an OS function. But obviously full screen apps like games etc won't have the quick back button at the top.

Edit. Basically any app that shows the top bar will support it.
