That's great that it can keep up with a 2 year old device. Congrats. I'm just saying multi core score is more measuring d*ck size more than anything else, since there are no apps that are properly written to take advantage full of all 8 cores.
The note 5 is like the gt-r. Sure it's really fast, but imagine what if Nissan innovated and used lightweight, high strength materials to take 700lbs off it, or if Samsung make soc that dominated the single core. It'd be a beast.
you don't need apps to be written in multi core on Android why are you not getting this.
Here is a snap shot of modern combat and its hard to get but I had cpuz running on the screen to show you the cores and clocks and load they were getting.while playing the game depending on actions and graphics on the screens all 8 cores would dynamically adjust clocks and would all be working.even the little cores and none of them are idle.
Also why are you bringing up the 5s and keep saying its 2 years old? The 7420 is old also it it was first actually used in the Korean note 4 but had 64 bit shut off and that phone also was neck to neck with the 5s in single core back then.the gs6 not only beat the iPhone 6 in its prime number its single core it beat it in multi as well.
Stop comparing the new iPhone ...when the gs7 comes out that will go up against the new iPhone and when apple goes quad core I'll be the first tell tell you exynos did it 5 years ago lol
You also need to understand Samsung went big little for max performance and max efficiency.apple uses a really big fat core with a huge wide pipe line to get its massive single core performance and they purposly made it that way.it has incredible performance per clock cycle but can not run high mhz because its efficiency will suffer.its the reason the a8x got a tiny 100mhz speed bump but added another core instead of ramping the 2 cores to 2.5 ghz.it would run extremely hot and not efficient because they made it purposly to run insane single core and cap out around 1.7-1.8ghz.
Samsung went smaller cores but added more of them.best of both worlds and there next gen soc is more single core based and they droped it to a quad core from 8
PS technically it's over clocking but we are just using Samsung base kernel source code and these values all came from Samsung.they built the 7420 to actually hit 2.4ghz and anandtech did a review of it and said there is also another locked 100mhz speed bin for the gpu to hit 877mhz.Samsung was really scared of the snapdragon when making the 7420 and was waiting on the 810 thinking it would of been there next gen cores and actually when they flopped Samsung lowerd its soc for better battery life but sammy was ready to battle as you can see from my results
