This is an Android Vs iOS speed test. Samsung’s Touchwiz based on the Android 6 version offers more customization options than Apple iOS. Touchwiz is well designed and functional. Android with Samsung's TouchWiz skin overlying the OS is heavy and the phone is pushing a 2K screen with a high DPI. Takes a lot of processing power to do all that. Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) performs well in the Geekbench benchmark. S7 features - Best display, Best camera, Best battery life, and IP68 rating. Samsung still competes with Apple in all round performance.

Half of what you said doesn't even make sense. Just because you say what you wish would happen with the s7 with performance that you drag on with doesn't mean your right about it. iPhone beats s7's performance because the ram is optimized and clearly you have no evidence surrounding what you expected to happen with s7 beating iPhone. The iPhone 7 also has stereo speakers unlike the Galaxy and it comes with lightning headphones with digital output. Also, EverythingApplePro tested both the iPhone 7 and the s7 and guess what? iPhone actually survived more than what apple rated the iPhone 7 water resistance level, yet the galaxy in general was once waterproof because of how the removable battery once was involved with gaskets surrounding it, and about wireless charging, if it's "wireless" then how come it's not useable within a certain range from the charger like an electronic device with a router? It might as well be wired charging with a base. Let's not forget iPhone 7 was ranked with the best performing display, but even at that, what difference does it make when comparing other displays that aren't distinguishable with detail when looking at pictures from a certain distance on a small screen (around 7" or under kind of small screen is what I'm reffering to). In fact, the camera is the same case here. Bottom line, iPhone 7 and s7 have some things that are either the same or one offers something more over the other.

The test should be 7 plus not the 7

The iPhome was compared to a note before and it's in its own category of lineup other than Samsung branded phones and tablets.

I mean that the note is in its own category.

What does Samsung do with the 4 Gb of ram? They aren't using it for multitasking that's for sure!
