Pavel Jelic Apple chips are known worldwide for their performance. After all, it is not for nothing that Apple is said to be several steps ahead of its competition in the field of mobile chipsets. In the end, however, it is not only about raw performance as such, but also about the overall optimization of hardware and software. And this is precisely where Apple has a huge advantage. It develops not only its own chips for its phones, but also the operating system (iOS), thanks to which it can easily connect them and ensure their flawless functionality. After all, this is also confirmed by the latest performance tests. According to them, the new iPhone 14 Pro Max took the role of the best gaming phone!
iPhone 14 Pro Max and gaming
As we mentioned above, the iPhone 14 Pro Max is equipped with the brand new Apple A16 Bionic chip, which goes hand in hand with 6GB of memory. The well-known YouTube channel Golden Reviewer, which focuses mainly on the performance of mobile phones in the field of gaming, immediately shed light on the gaming performance of this device. This creator regularly tests various models while playing the popular game Genshin Impact. Specifically, it monitors the average number of frames per second, average consumption, FPS per watt and temperature.

According to the current test of the Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max, the ranking has found a new king for gaming in terms of smartphones. In the list, the new iPhone is in second place, i.e. behind the iPad mini 6 (with the Apple A15 Bionic chip). The third place is the Xiaomi 12S Ultra, and the fourth is the iPhone SE 2022. The fourth place of the iPhone SE (3rd generation) surprised many people, but there is a simple reason for it. The display of this phone is significantly smaller, which means that the device does not need to render as many pixels as in the case of traditional phones. However, fans have paused over the differences between the iPhone 14 Pro Max and the Xiaomi 12S Ultra. Although the Apple representative leads in terms of the number of frames per second, it is 4,4 °C warmer than the Xiaomi phone. The Xiaomi 12S Ultra model boasts a sophisticated cooling system, which has become one of the biggest benefits of this smartphone. You can see the complete table below.
Are iPhones the best gaming phones?
Based on the mentioned results, one more interesting question is offered. Are iPhones the best phones for playing video games? Unfortunately, there is no single answer to this. It is necessary to realize that the test took place only within one game - Genshin Impact - while the results in the case of other titles may differ slightly. Even so, it is true that the performance of apple phones is simply indisputable and they easily cope with various operations - whether it is gaming or other tools.
