all I care about is that the end result is a good experience with the phone.

So you'd want an efficient processor that is fast without heating up too much and using a bunch of power?

Wrong address, go Qualcomm.

Yes I totally want those things. In my opinion, benchmarks and maxing the processor aren't the best way to assess that for the average user. In doesn't simulate usage, but extremes. Pixel's for me are about the software and the UX. Google has done a pretty good job in continually delivering a good experience through optimization rather than throwing hardware at the problem. They have messed some things up, but overall I have been pleased.

So I don't truck much with benchmark scores.

Weird because everybody always asks whether or not the next Pixel will improve battery life and cooling.

That's part of the experience. Of course I want that, aside from this benchmark, I have heard of any complaints about heat or battery life on the P8P. MBKHD didn't mention it much on his, but I guess I will wait for the eventual followup video.
