New iPad Pro obliterates competition on Geekbench

Apple introduced its new iPads with an A12X chipset two days ago and the first benchmarks already started popping. Two listings on Geekbench revealed that the smaller iPad Pro will have 4 GB RAM, while the bigger will sport 6 GB RAM, but what is more impressive is the multi-core score that is around 18,000.

Higher is better

Apple iPhone XS Max4777
Apple iPhone X4256

The iPad Pro 11” reached 4,987 in the single-core score, which is slightly higher than the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max that was lurking around 4,800. The bigger iPad Pro 12.9" scored similar result as its smaller sibling - 5,020. The increase for a single core is not that big, compared with the regular A12 Bionic. The difference is multiple cores is much more impressive, though.

Higher is better

Apple iPad Pro 12.9"18217
Apple iPad Pro 11"17928
Apple iPhone XS11472
Apple iPhone XS Max11432
Apple iPhone X10215

The new tablets with the updated chipset recorded more than 50% increase in performance, smashing to pieces any competition left. We didn’t want to include devices with Snapdragon 845 because at that point it is simply not fair - devices like the OnePlus 6T or the Samsung Galaxy Note9 barely reached a score of 9,000, while the Kirin 980-powered Mate 20 Pro can go as high as 9,800.

The new iPads are available for pre-order at Apple and various retailers and carriers like Verizon. Prices start from $799 and $999 and go up to $1,899 if you want the bigger screen with 1 TB storage and Cellular network connectivity. Sales begin on November 7.

Samsung's foldable Galaxy F is real and is coming to markets soon: CEO DJ Koh

It would seem that the fabled foldable Galaxy phone, which many had considered to be in the realm of myths and legends, has been finally confirmed by none other than the CEO of Samsung Mobile, DJ Koh. In an interview, the CEO spilled the beans on how Samsung is not only in the process of developing such a device but also how it is racing to deliver it first in the market. The phone has been earlier rumoured to be called as the Galaxy F , a lineup of smartphones which Samsung had abandoned back in 2014. In the i nterview with Forbes Koh said that "Samsung is focusing on developing innovations that will be genuinely accepted and liked by consumers". The fact that Samsung is racing to deliver this foldable device first means that they are not the only ones in the race. Earlier reports have pointed out to the fact that Apple and LG both have patented a foldable display smartphone technology. For people wondering if the Galaxy F is going to be a one-off c...

Apple’s top spec Mac Pro will likely cost at least $35,000

Apple announced today that its new Mac Pro starts at an already pricey $6,000, but the company neglected to mention how much the top-of-the-line model will cost. So we shopped around for equivalent parts to the top-end spec that Apple’s promising. As it turns out: $33,720.88 is likely the bare minimum — and that’s before factoring in the four GPUs, which could easily jack that price up to around $45,000. For all that dough, big-budget video editors and other creative types get a lot of firepower: a 28-core Intel Xeon W processor, an almost-impossible-to-comprehend 1.5TB of RAM, 4TB of SSD storage, and four AMD Radeon Pro Vega II Duo GPUs — assuming you can afford one. Add in a Pro Display XDR monitor (and a Pro Stand to go with it ), and you’re looking at a workstation that could clear $50,000. Keep in mind too that these estimates are based on market prices for these (or similar) parts: Apple historically has charged far more for it...
