Because Geekbench 7 changes its workloads, data sets, and multi-core methodology, its results shouldn't be treated as directly comparable with Geekbench 6 scores. Those results make the same iPad appear about 14% slower in single-core performance and 5% slower in multi-core performance. Comparing results between Geekbench 6 and Geekbench 7A device's Geekbench 6 result should therefore remain in charts and comparisons built around Geekbench 6. Geekbench 7 changes how it measures multi-core performanceThe difference between Geekbench 6 and Geekbench 7 results reflects more than a recalibrated scoring scale.
