The same computer running Chrome has different score than one running Firefox, in the case of iOS, the browser is written very close to the metal to get the most performance out of the browser as possible, Apple is able to do this because they design everything from the hardware to the OS to the browser. It will not automatically translate to anything else tho. If your browser is slow because it is taking a lot of time running Javascript, then a cpu + browser that is faster at Javascript will help. Javascript benchmarks are good if your computer's bottlenecks are Javascript rooted. I wouldn't be super surprised to see Apple's ARM chips showing up as coprocessors in laptops (they already sorta are with the touchbar) - since Apple can pull off some tight hardware integrations.

This likely means more pro / desktop features on iOS, not less on OSX. My guess, Apple will continue to push the iOS devices more upmarket, and the OS' will continue to converge. The G4s were really outmatched by Intel's core solo / core duo procs at that point. If the A10X were a solid 50-100% faster than a m3/i3 it would replace, it would be a differen't story. ARM chips aren't specifically faster than the X86 chips they'd replace, so performance with the emulation overhead would be kinda meh at best. Pro users kept their dual G5s for a little while longer, and Apple supported both for a few years. When Apple did the PPC->X86 transition, X86 was so much faster than the PPC chips they'd been shipping (bar the big beefy G5s, which were the last to die) that emulation was good enough for consumers.

But the work of a full OSX port to ARM and overhead of running all existing X86 apps in emulation may not make a lot of sense. They could totally replace the low end m3/i3/i5 chips Apple ships in notebooks. Tightly coupled hardware and software and a great javascript engine.Īpple's chips are frankly incredible. On the flip side, it does mean that an iPad Pro is probably the best web browsing device available, even compared to a powerful desktop. Geekbench kinda sucks and with browser ones iOS Safari is so tightly optimized, and the hardware designed specifically for that kind of work, it's kinda hard to say that makes the hardware faster than x86 hardware. Those aren't great benchmarks specifically.
