# Flutter vs React Native (2026 Benchmark)

Selecting the right cross-platform mobile framework is critical for enterprise applications. Here is how Flutter and React Native stack up today.

## Performance & Rendering Engine

- **Flutter**: Utilizes Impeller engine for 60/120 FPS target rendering without JANK or shader compilation stutter.
- **React Native**: Utilizes JSI (JavaScript Interface) and TurboModules to eliminate the legacy asynchronous bridge.

## Architectural Recommendation

- Choose **Flutter** for graphic-intensive UI, consistent cross-platform pixel precision, and single codebase targeting iOS, Android, and Web.
- Choose **React Native** if your engineering team is heavily invested in JavaScript/React web codebases.
