I'd only pick the iPhone if I REALLY wanted an excellent camera, and that's only if I HAD to choose between these two devices. Otherwise, the OP8 is better in every way: much better screen, next gen connectivity, better battery life, faster charging, better price, better OS.

This article fails pretty hard when you get into the performance section. Yes, in the GFXBench's aztech ruins vulkan (High tier, 1440 offscreen) the iphone 11 did achieve a 34.03 fps to the oneplus 8pro's 20.54... but it fails to mention this is the peak level (peak in means cold phone). At typical temperatures (aka sustained gaming temps) the oneplus got an identical 20.54 fps, compared to the iphone 11's 21.98... It doesn't seem like such a big win when you get into the details.

Also, using 3dMark's slingshot extreme OpenGL 3.1 test, the oneplus8 will score better than an iphone 11 promax by about 19% (~7150 for 8pro to sub 6000 for iphone 11 promax)...

Sad to see Tom's is becoming so biased.
