The iPhone 12 gets HOT and is Lagging! By Redskull

What's happening everyone, my name is Alex and welcome back well. Today's video is going to be a bit different um. The other day I was talking to my friend Chris from tech tablets, and he's having trouble with his iPhone 12 Pro and thermal throttling, so the phone starts lagging after. He plays the game for about an hour. So in today's video we're going to find out if the regular iPhone 12 does the same on when it gets hot and just so, we have something to compare it with. I also have the Samsung Galaxy s20 right here as well, so what we are going to do.

We are going to run the an tutu benchmark on both devices. Now that they are nice and cold. We are going to see what scores we get them at first, when the devices are called, then I'm going to play a game for about an hour, and then we'll run the an tutu benchmark once again, so we can see if there is any drop in performance um when the phones are hot and with that being said, let me turn the surrounding camera'll start with the an tutu benchmark, and we'll go from there all right. So we have both phones ready on the left. Here we have the Samsung Galaxy s20, as you can see it's at a hundred percent power and on the right we have the iPhone 12 and this one is at 100 power.

So I'm going to show it. I don't have any apps running in the background, except for the android benchmark, so we are going to be running the an tutu benchmark on both of them. Obviously, I'm going to fast-forward, so you don't have to wait um all that time, we'll just wait for that ad to go away. So we are going to press some test again and um we'll run this, and I'll come back afterwards, all right! So, as you can see, the iPhone 12 does get a somewhat higher score than the Samsung Galaxy s20, but that's not important. It's important the score that we get after we get to play for quite some time, so we started at 100 battery on both of them.

The s20 has 96, and this one is still at a hundred percent, we'll see how that um works out on once we start playing the game so for the game. We have this one called the jinxing impact. This is a very graphic, um intensive game, so we'll see how both do so, I'm just going to turn them on this way. Let me make sure that you can see them on the camera, so we'll start the game at the same time, um we'll close the an tutu benchmark. I guess on both so close that, so we'll start our game, we'll see which device actually starts the game um sooner, and we're also going to play at the maximum graphics settings.

This way both devices can get hotter and quicker, and then we can see which device lags and which one doesn't so kind of. At the same time, we'll press tab to begin we're going to have to turn down the volume, a bit so tap to begin once again, we'll see which one actually starts um faster, so the iPhone 12 did start the game a bit quicker, we'll wait for the s20 as well and of course, I'm going to fast-forward through this, because I don't want you to be watching this for an hour. There is no point, so the iPhone 12 definitely way faster at starting that game um compared to the s20, so we're roughly in the same spot. Um with the game. I was actually playing uh yesterday, so we can get here.

So, let's open the settings on both so settings graphic settings- and here you can see that we have it at 60 frames per second- and everything is set to high and the same here. But the menus are a bit um different, but everything is set to the highest level possible overall setting. We don't actually have overall settings here, but everything is at the maximum settings that we can get, so we'll um close this, we'll close this back and back so now, I'm basically going to start playing this game and um we'll see how it goes. Um after a while I'll um see, which one starts lagging more. Let me turn off the manual focus, so now we have autofocus.

I just want to show you how these work right now. So this is the Samsung Galaxy s20, and you can probably see it's extremely smooth so another what to do. This is super, super smooth one of the smoothest that I've seen, but we'll have to see how the phones perform after a while. So we'll stop here, we'll switch to the iPhone 12, so I can show you the exact same thing that I was showing you on the other one. So lets um go this way so once again, extremely smooth on this one as well.

Maybe I should turn up the volume a bit. Let's turn up the volume a bit on this one, so we'll just um keep playing for um a while and, as I said, um as these start up slowing down, I'm gonna start talking again so uh we can see. This is already kind of lagging now that can be yeah, it's not as smooth as the s20. Let's see this one again, so the s20 seems much smoother than uh this one than the iPhone 12. Well, it's kind of the same.

Actually, all right so, oh see as soon as you play for a bit. It kind of starts uh, dropping a couple of frames, so we'll uh I'll keep doing this right. Now, it's 8 23, so um we'll see we'll see how this goes um for about an hour all right. So it's been about 20 minutes now, uh! Well, almost 20 minutes, and I've been playing a bit with this phone a bit with the other phone uh. Both phones are feeling a bit warm at the moment.

The s20 does feel a bit hotter, but uh both of them are playing without any lags. So, even though they're a bit warm, there is no lag whatsoever for either device, so we'll have to see how uh this continues after uh, another 10 or 20 minutes, but for now there is well. There is a bit of lag here for this one see, so maybe the iPhone 12 does develop a bit of lag, but it's definitely not bad at this time, but you can see a couple of skipped frames here on and there, but funny enough. The s20 is feeling actually way warmer than the iPhone 12. The iPhone 12 still feels kind of cool to touch, so I'll keep um doing this for um another little while and I will be back, so we can see how this works out in the next 20 minutes or so okay.

So it's been another 15 minutes, it's 8 56 um. Now I think we started at 8 23 or so the Samsung Galaxy s20 does feel hotter than the iPhone 12, but it feels like it performs better. So this is the s20 like no uh dropped frames um so far with the iPhone 12. It doesn't feel hot at all, like the s9 does feel much hotter, but this one seems to drop some more frames sometimes, so you can probably notice them when I um scroll around, but overall they're still doing pretty good for such a graphics, intensive game. So far, so I'm gonna keep on playing this for another 20 minutes.

I guess that's going to make it uh to like an hour of playing and uh, then we'll run the an tutu benchmark once again, and we'll see how well uh they do. Then, when uh they're super warm, so uh, yeah I'll, keep playing and um I'll talk to you guys in a bit okay, so we are roughly in the same spot with both devices. Once again, the Samsung Galaxy s20 is hotter and uh. Now it's been about on 45 minutes almost um since we started playing so the s20 does feel hotter than the iPhone 12, but neither device seems to be throttling um that bad I mean you can definitely notice a couple of skipped frames um here and there on both devices, but they're still doing pretty good, both of them um. I'm going to say so about 45 minutes playing.

Yes, they are both um, pretty hot, but uh performance wise. I think they're doing really well, so we'll play for another 10 minutes. Then I'm going to stop playing and um we'll do the an tutu benchmark um test once again, so we can see the difference in score between now um and when we first started doing this test, so I'll keep playing for another 10 minutes and then um I'll come back. So we can do that test. Okay, so it's been roughly 50 minutes since I started playing, both devices are doing pretty good.

Actually, that's the s20. This is the iPhone 12. So even though they're both pretty warm at this time, I haven't really noticed that much lag on either device and that's quite impressive playing this game for um 50 minutes. So we're going to exit this game. Now on both devices, we'll um roll them around and um.

I think we're going to run the an tutu benchmark, just in case you're wondering on the s20 we have 71 battery and on this one we have 67. So the iPhone 12 did use more power um while playing that game for um for about uh 50 minutes, so we'll run the an tutu benchmark um once again, we'll see the score that we get once again, I'm going to fast-forward this we'll just wait for that ad to go away, so we'll test this once again. Now that the both phones are hot, and then we'll come back, so we can see the results all right, and we are back so yes, there is in fact some thermal throttling happening um for the iPhone 12 because, as you can probably see here, the an tutu score has dropped quite a lot um since we first started this test. So it's been about well exactly an hour since we started, and just in case you're wondering now on the Samsung Galaxy s20 is at 67, where this one is at 62. So there is in fact some thermal throttling happening for the iPhone 12.

So I'm assuming that if I had kept playing another half an hour or so this score would have been even lower. As you can probably see here, the Samsung Galaxy s20 didn't actually drop this score too much, even though the s20 felt uh hotter to touch than the iPhone 12. So there you have it the iPhone 12 and the Samsung Galaxy s20, just in case um, if you're wondering about thermal throttling on these two devices. Alright guys thanks for watching, don't forget to press that like button, and I will see you in the next one.
