Statistical rules:

1.Score: average scores, not thehighest scores (the actual running results may fluctuate, which is a normalphenomenon).

2.Period of data statistics: July 1,2017 to July 31, 2017.

3.Data amount: at least 1000 datasamples for a single model.

First, let’s have a look at the overallranking list of July.

From the overall ranking list, we can seethat the top five spots were taken by Android smartphones, while iPhone 7 Pluswhich is the most powerful iOS smartphone only took the fifth spot withiPhone 7 sliding to the ninth spot. Considering Antutu score alone, Androidcamp has absolute advantage in Antutu performance over iOS camp. However, justas we always stated, performance score cannot tell everything. Although iPhone7 series have been going through a score drop recently, we cannot say that iPhone7 series are no longer strong in performance any more. We speculate that thescore drop of iOS smartphones may be due to the recent system update of iOS10.3. With more users applying the iOS 10.3 update, average scores of iPhone 7series expect to see a further drop.

Next, let’s have a look at the separaterankings of iOS devices and Android devices.

From theiOS list, we can see that iPad Pro which is powered by the powerful A10 Fusionprocessor continues to top the list as in June. There is a slight score drop ofiPhone 7 Plus and iPhone 7 compared to our June ranking. Scores of other iOSdevices didn’t show much fluctuation.

Snapdragon 835mobile platform has outperformed all its predecessors since it is put on themarket. With more and more new models launching in the next half of 2017,Snapdragon 821-powered smartphones may be squeezed out of the top 10 list.
