Exciting stuff!<\/p>\n<div>But before we continue with the actual test results, let us quickly clarify that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 has a faster GPU, but the CPU performance is actually still slightly behind the Apple A16 chip, so do remember that before attaching any labels to each of these processors.

Many other benchmarks only run for a couple of minutes and thus can only measure the initial burst of performance, but do not account for the thermal throttling that happens after a short while on most smartphones.<\/p>\n<p>This 3D Mark test avoids that pitfall and gives us a comprehensive and realistic picture of the GPU performance over time.<\/p>\n<p>So here are the actual graphics performance scores from the Vivo X90 Pro Plus (Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip) and the Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max (Apple A16 Bionic chip):<\/p>\n<p>So what are we seeing here exactly?<\/p>\n<p>Analyzing the results, we see that the Vivo hits a score of 3,726 points vs 3,210 points on the iPhone in the data beginning before we see any throttling, a 16% difference in favor of the Vivo.<\/p>\n<p>But those numbers are actually quite misleading because as you can see in the screenshots above, the iPhone throttles practically immediately, on the second minute, while the Vivo starts slowly and gradually dropping its performance around the 8 minute mark, so it can sustain that peak performance for far longer.<\/p>\n<div>A full 20 minutes into the test, the two phones hit the following numbers: 3,251 on the Vivo and 2,309 on the iPhone, a MASSIVE DIFFERENCE of around 41% in favor of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 on the Vivo!  That is a really impressive showing!<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"clear\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"ch-center-1 nolinks\" style=\"width: 88.235294117647%\">Throttling on the iPhone actually extends the lead of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2!<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, we ought to mention that while both phones warmed up, the Vivo was actually scorching hot to the point where I wouldn&#8217;t want to hold it immediately after the test.  I had to bring it to a colder room so it would chill for a couple of minutes!  And if anecdotal experience is worth something, this is the hottest phone I have touched in my experience.<\/p>\n<p>It also lost a whopping 15% in battery life for the 20-minute duration of the test, while the iPhone only lost 8%, so the Vivo was draining at double the speeds!  This definitely has a lot to do with that higher temperature.<\/p>\n<p>The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 has proven that it is an extremely capable chip, but what is no less important is that it needs a lot of cooling to sustain those numbers, and we feel Vivo could have done more on this front.<\/p>\n<p>We are yet to test whether playing a demanding game like Genshin Impact at max settings would make the Vivo X90 Pro Plus uncomfortably hot, because great performance is awesome, but if the phone gets too hot, many people would just not want to use it like that.<\/p>\n<h2>Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 vs A16 Bionic: CPU performance tested<\/h2>\n<div><!-- ImageTagInstance gallery-76f44d57-94ec-4fd4-a733-9adea85c73b6 --><\/p>\n<div id=\"gallery-76f44d57-94ec-4fd4-a733-9adea85c73b6\" class=\"single-image-container image-c\" style=\"width:1600px;max-width:100%\">\n<div class=\"gallery-item\">\n<picture style=\"padding-top: 56.25%\"><source media=\"(max-width: 350px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/m-cdn.phonearena.com\/images\/articles\/396221-350\/vivo-vs-iphone-geekbench-3.jpg\"><source media=\"(min-width: 351px) and (max-width: 500px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/m-cdn.phonearena.com\/images\/articles\/396221-500\/vivo-vs-iphone-geekbench-3.jpg\"><source media=\"(min-width: 501px) and (max-width: 800px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/m-cdn.phonearena.com\/images\/articles\/396221-800\/vivo-vs-iphone-geekbench-3.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/m-cdn.phonearena.com\/images\/articles\/396221-image\/vivo-vs-iphone-geekbench-3.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"Android gets its savior!
