“Phablets may be bigger than the rest of the phone market, but it doesn’t necessarily mean they’re better than everything else,” James Peckham reports for TechRadar UK. “We’ve taken the biggest phablets out there and put them through our speed test.”
Peckham reports, “Our phone selection includes the iPhone 6S Plus, Nexus 6P, Microsoft Lumia 950 XL, Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+ and Sony Xperia Z5 Premium.”
“The test includes booting up the phones followed by running through 10 apps that mirror real life,” Peckham reports. “We do two laps of those apps including Netflix, Asphalt 8, Instagram and Spotify.”
Peckham reports, “To find out which phone was fastest and whether it’s powerful enough for you, watch our speed test video below.”
