Why does Apple show so much "restraint" when it comes to specs?

[QUOTE="Ctrl-Opt-Del, post: 1605629, member: 215112"] Given how Apple's iPhone can achieve the same benchmark performance from an A8 SoC comprising "only" a 1.4GHz dual-core CPU & 1GB of RAM as the kinds of generic SoCs found in Android flagships can with 2.4GHz quad-core CPUs & 3GB of RAM, why doesn't Apple make an SoC with the same specs as a generic Android chip & massively leapfrog the competition in terms of performance? I know battery life could suffer, but if most Android manufacturers can make phones that last as long as an iPhone despite the heftier chips chugging along in them, then I'm sure it wouldn't take Apple too long to make their own better batteries (& putting said superior batteries into phones with equal performance to Android flagships would then give them a battery life edge)...
