It is amazing that the 1520 still beat the iPhone 6 in GPU benchmarking performance.

So its about optimization?A major portion of performance is based on how optimized the operating system and applications are, and iOS wins out on this compared to both Android and Windows Phone.
While yes on paper a 1520 may have better specifications than any iPhone ever released, even the latest one the 1520 has weaker hardware because it may have more cores but Apple's own A7 and A8 are more powerful.

As far as the graphics benchmark you are talking about, it's flawed IMO. The 1520 can't beat a Snapdragon 801 used on the Xperia Z1, primarily because the 801 chip came with a much more improved GPU.

Wait no its only which has higher specs. Wait even if its faster it doesn't matter. But the iPhone chip is more "powerful"
WOW!
Youre really all over the place. We get it you're an apple fan boy and the thought of the iPhone not being superior in every way keeps you up at night.
But here's a thought. Try to figure out what you're trying to say before you type it. And if you want to argue for these contradictory positions, try using one per thread so you don't look as dum and desperate.
You're right 1gb ram isn't necessary on a phone just expected for a flagship especially one as pricey as the iPhone. No it is not faster that has already been shown. No flaw in test just apple with more lawyers and finances to back those lawyers and a company reviewing the phone intimidated by apple. If you love the phone fine, there's nothing wrong with that but you don't need to justify it with BS.My first point was to prove that 2GB of RAM isn't required as long as the software is optimized, moving on my other points we're to prove why the tests we're flawed and the general hardware(apart from maybe the RAM) are more powerful than any Lumia.

Why have people gotten their expectations so high? If 1GB of RAM works fine why do you need to add an extra gigabyte?!
For iPhone? To optimize the use of their marketed 64 bit feature on their chipset(since A7)... We now have 2 years of 64 running on a system with not enough ram to utilize its capabilities. That's pretty annoying.

Android has been working to optimize for lower memory devices I an attempt to keep competitive with WP in the entry level phone market. They realize that WP works buttery smooth for even 512 Mb devices and for them to compete in this market they realize the experience for android on these devices has to improve.Why have people gotten their expectations so high? If 1GB of RAM works fine why do you need to add an extra gigabyte?
You should instead push software makers to improve the experience on existing low memory devices, instead of always going for more and better. Even Android started optimizing itself for lower memory devices!
No lawyers are part of this equation, in Basemark OS II the iPhone 5S scored higher for graphics than the 1520 and since the new iPhone 6's GPU is around 50% faster it's only logical that it also beats the 1520.
So clearly this benchmark is flawed, it even places the 1520 above the more powerful Xperia Z2 for gods sakes!

I'll like to say that WP runs all the apps & games perfectly on 1gb ram. That's all you need. That's not the case in android. If you say that 2 Gb ram isn't required if a software is optimized then I might say then Android would be the most unstable OS . & why do all the tests become flawed if Lumia wins any benchmark test?
We'll simply put the apps and games run smoothly because there isn't much too them, there is a very small library of quality games that can actually challenge the capabilities of the processor and GPU on Windows Phone.
The reason why the test is flawed isn't because Lumia is in it, but because it runs a much older Snapdragon 800 processor that wasn't even capable of beating an iPhone 5S in previous tests conducted by WPCentral.
As far as bringing Android into this goes, it's not relevant. I'll admit that iOS is better optimized than Android, but according to many of the *RECENT* speed tests I've seen have proved that Android does a better job than Windows Phone.
But again the thread is about iPhone and 1520, not Android.

Asphalt 8 runs pretty bad on my L928, compared to my 5s.
Overall 1520 wasn't able to beat iPhone 5s, this is only the processor test I might add. There's a huge difference between them.
That's due to poor app/game development
