Specs are one thing, but you also have to look at the software. ios is written in c++ and will always be faster then androind with it's slow, cpu and memory consuming piece of shit - java. There is also a huge diffence in APi's. Google is still using this terrible, ancient open gl es while Apple developed a totally new API called metal which is 10x faster than open gl.
