I just did a 11.2.1/11.2.2 benchmark of my iPhone 7: https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/compare/6303880?baselin...

The result is that 11.2.2 is slightly faster than 11.2.1 (around 2%).

And here’s one of my iPad Pro 10.5”: https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/compare/6304146?baselin... (0.9% increase in performance).

I did this same test with an iPhone X and iPad Pro 10.5" as well as a several year old Mini 2 and didn't see a difference. In fact, I saw what you did, my scores got better in most categories.
