Why the first place in AnTuTu does not determine the best smartphone
HONOR Win 2 topped the ranking, but its advantage over the RedMagic 12 Pro+ is so small that it does not in itself indicate a noticeable difference in real performance. Both devices use the same processor, and benchmark results may vary between tests. For gaming smartphones, not only peak performance is important. Equally important are the stability of performance under long-term load, the efficiency of the cooling system, the body temperature and autonomy. In this context, the HONOR Win 2’s 10,100 mAh battery can be a practical advantage. However, it will be possible to assess its real capabilities only after independent autonomy tests and long gaming sessions.
