Apple’s new A8 processor powers the I Phone 6 Plus. It’s an excellent system on a chip(SOC) that provides oodles of grunt for high definition 3D gaming and means that the iPhone 6 Plus is butter smooth in day-to-day operation. If you just looked at the numbers you’d be forgiven for believing that the iPhone 6 Plus is a lot less powerful than the android competition. In fact, the iPhone 6 Plus performs better than the Samsung in some graphic intensive tasks like playing games.
