I don't get this benchmark stuff for phones unless you do gaming with them i guess. I have used recently a Nothing Phone 2a for a few weeks and it works far better and smoother for everyday use than my Galaxy S22 despite having a chip that is supposedly 50% worse. In the end is the OS what makes the difference not the SoC.

That's only true for new phones. Once they get older, the difference in performance is noticeable.

Replacing the battery after a few years is possible, upgrading the SoC is not.
