All 8 cores are available at any time. It’s not a big.LITTLE arrangement.
That's true for most big.LITTLE implementations.

Wonder how this apple chip would have done in the consoles?
You cannot count the 4 miniature cores as they were equal to the 4 "real" ones.
And the difference is arguably even greater in terms of graphics performance.No but you can use them just the same.
It redefines the low end performance offered by Macs no matter what way you slice it.
So, let's play Geekbench all night long?
Geekbench of course, but jesus.
Because it shows the performance of Apple CPU?Why are some people so impressed by Geekbench results?
Blame lazy programmersEvery autumn/fall the same stuff: Yes, Apple has built a SoC for impressive Geekbench numbers. As an iPhone user for over 12 years: I am not impressed.

Benchmarks can show all they want to, its what happens in practice what matters. Another example is antutu where Apple almost always looses to snapdragon chipsets. It is said to be the most realistic benchmark because it takes all of the system in test instead of just the CPU.
Anyway, thats just benchmarks again on totally different OS and architectures. Using a S20 ultra and 11 pro max side by side, the former is the faster one for most things.
The SD875 will most likely be 'close or faster' in benchmarks again.

What’s your agenda?
AnTuTu is the worst CPU benchmark I had the displeasure to study (well OK, dhrystone is worse). It was based on nbench and used to be compiled with Intel icc (which was demonstrated to make unreal optimizations on nbench code) to show Atom in a better light. I don't know where it stands now, but I don't care and I know where Geekbench stands.Benchmarks can show all they want to, its what happens in practice what matters.

Crazy what being in a desktop with a huge fan allows one to do. Now all I see in the ST results is that the largest discrepancy is in AES which is the less useful part of GB IMNSHO.https://browser.geekbench.com/macs/macbook-pro-13-inch-mid-2019-intel-core-i5-8279u-2-4-ghz-4-cores
My iPhone 8's Single-Core Score is ~937. So it's faster than last year's MBP 13''- in Geekbench - and it cannot run Crysis.

Almost the same SC score, but you can see differences, where M1 wins, where Zen 3.

Do you mean fixed function? If so then yes GB doesn't use M1 fixed function or that would make it a poor CPU benchmarkI don't think, M1 uses its FF hardware
Well that brings us back to the second part of my message above: blame the SW. With that CPU performance there's no reason your iPhone should feel significantly slower than an S20. But I think we already had this discussion months ago, didn't we?Yes, i wasnt implying antutu was any good indication either, its another benchmark. What the respective phones do in practice, the final results, thats what matters.
Otherwise i couldnt care about mobile phones, i have zero intrest in them performance vs another brand. Im a pc gamer not a phone gamer
I have an 11 pro max, and with IOS14 its close enough for me to an android. But say, comparing to my sisters S20 ultra side by side, it really doesnt matter much, they both do just about anything you throw at them, even if one is a second faster here and there. Its a matter of OS choice basically. And there is where i go for Apple just because i dont have to thinkoff OS updates, as i will get atleast 5 years of full updates plus another three for security updates.
Apps are also much better optimized on OIS, theres less shit on the app store and an iphone basically never needs a reinstall or reboot.
The drawbacks are usually the display and other tech, but hardware SoC is top notch (lol).
Same here.IE, i cant have a damn agenda for a mobile phone i only use when i dont have access to my ipad or pc.

Crap, I wanted to delete this part.Do you mean fixed function? If so then yes GB doesn't use M1 fixed function or that would make it a poor CPU benchmark
