It's not surprising.

Iphone is as fast as top desktop CPUs. It has 200% performance of my desktop pc (where it runs fast).

What is surprising is that it's very slow on Snapdragon 730 phone.

Might be half CPU there but also half that the JS Engine on Android is much slower than iOS’s. In all JS benchmarks the iPhone outclasses the Android devices by amounts greater than the CPU advantage.
