Isn't Geekbench always been very biased towards Apple silicon?

People who don't like the results always like to claim that... but it's awfully hard to find proof.

Though, part of it I think may just be Geekbench's design as a microbenchmark that doesn't do long-term strain or attempt real-world tasks.

No, Apple stuff is just that much better.

I love this response because no matter if I read it as sarcastic or not it’s still funny.

I guess my question is - why do I care about geekbench? When was the last time someone who doesn't play games on their phone thought "man, I wish this was faster"? Because it's been years for me. The good news I hear is that Samsung is finally improving their battery life. That is a score that I actually care about.
