　　Q&A :

　　Resolution for performance

　　Resolution will play some rule for the performance, in the same chip and RAM. Under the same chips of snapdragon 820, the hardware requirment of 2K resolution is higher than that of 1080p. So that is why the score of 2k resolution device is lower than that of 1080p device.

　　We could see that Samsung Galaxy S7/Edge adoped 2K resolution and Xiaomi 5 with 1080p.Also, in the same processor and RAM, Meizu Pro5, 1080P resolution got 3000 higher score compared with 2K resolution Galaxy Note5.

　　Ranking rules:

　　1. Data collection time: 1st, Jan ,2016 to 31st, March, 2016. Some devices, like LG G5 and HTC M10 offical release in April. So you could not see these devices in the ranking.

　　2. Althogh the Le Max Pro has go public,but only for 1000 engineering machines.That’s why it did not appear in the ranking.

　　3. Some media may claim that Vivo Xplay5 could get more than 1600000 of Antutu score but according our data, the highest score is 136794, and the average is 130298, with only 18 data item, which could not be counted.

　　Huawei Mate 8 vs Xiaomi 5

　　Huawei has a its great brand value and develops rapidly. Consider other benchmark softwares, Kirin950 has its advantage in multi-core performance, for sure. But not as good as snapdragon 820 in single-core performance, GPU and overall performance.
