In comparison to Google, of course. It's considered the gold standard in mapping. And it's what iPhone users used to have before Apple did the switch to control their own maps.
Google has had years to perfect their technology and update their maps from all kinds of sources. Apple, even with the data it bought, is nowhere near that level of accuracy. They are, quite literally, years behind. Whether it takes them years to catch up, though, is another story.
