So we can see the Apple chip does (slightly) better in single-core performance only. We already knew this. (SD consistently beats Axx every single year in multi-core performance.) Also, these are merely preliminary Snapdragon numbers in a test device compared to a real-world iPhone 18 Pro Max with A20 Pro inside. Meaning, the Snapdragon can only be improved further after manufacturing tweaks. This gap will widen.
@TuGa121, I can see why you would want to compare the A20 Pro, to last year's 8 Elite Gen 5. (Instead of it's actual competitor, the Elite Extreme 6 released less than 2 weeks after the A20.)
I got my SD numbers from this article, and A20 from Mashable.com

Yeah, it'll be interesting to benchmark the actual phones when they get released. Although I assume there won't be much of a difference between them and the reference design. Probably it'll be the Galaxy S27 Ultra and gaming phones like the next RedMagic flagship that will take the Gen 6 to the extreme.
