I had expected 8 slower cores to outperform the 2 slightly faster cores in multi-core benchmarks, so the results are somewhat surprising, but I guess Apple's wide pipeline design keeps on giving. Thanks for the benchmark data.

For what it's worth, the statement you quoted did not initially contain the number of cores. 6P felt super snappy (at least on Android 6, not so much on Oreo) and I added the cores for dramatic effect, but that backfired. I'll leave it as-is so others can notice and learn from my mistake once they read your reply.
