Would anyone be willing to run some tests for me please, I am interested in seeing what this device is like but cannot get my hands on one! The claims made earlier on were that the processor in these phones has 3x the graphics processing capabilities as the snapdragon... is this true? do you notice improvement? using divxrockplayer demo player are you able to run 720p mkv (i currently get 7 fps without reencoding for device on my incredible so im curious what that difference is) also what are bench scores from gl bench or Neocore and also mabey even try out some of the bench tests from here...http://www.typhon4android.org/androidbugs/droid2dtest-21/
these devices are really impressive from what ive seen but I cant believe the ARM Cortex A8 1GHz processor is THAT much better....
and to all of you who look at this and have a galaxy right now, im jealous u get to play with it lol.... thanks for any info you can provide

my Neocore result is 53.5
I suggest that before you post a new topic, please try to search & read other threads first.
You asked about 720p MKVs directly downloaded from the net, yes, the Galaxy S can play MOST of them, we experience problems with variable fps.

Does benchmarks and quadrant scores really that important?

Ultimately - I think not?
If the phone feels quick, and it runs your programes then i would not worry about benchmarking... But if it feels slow and sluggish, then i would try out one of the many benchmarking programes out there, and see if there truely is a problem...
I have tryed it a cauple of times and found that my note ran perfectly well, and that it was I whos was mistaken..

They are good tools to tweak your phone as long as you know what look for but of course one single benchmsrk cannot tell the whole story so I use a combination of benchmarks and applications that i am familiar with when evaluating rom/kernels or overclocking settings.

It surely does make no difference if you score high or low. What matters is that you should be satisfied with ur phones performance.

what i really noticed is that the memory and I/O scores are kernel specific and the more scores you have the more fast the operations on ur phone becomes..
i personaly have achieved highest scores of I/O using notecore /hydracore
This one is really not important. Haha.
Leave this app eversince I bought my notes.
As long as smooth, good battery life, what else u need?
U win nothing even if ur benchmark higher from others.

Antutu benchmarks score gets reduced after installing the latest update from Sony.
i have run the benchmark soon after unboxing the device.. and it gave me a score of 20707..
and there was an update from Sony which after installing for some reason locks the processor speed when its heated up.. when i run the benchmarks now it gives me a score of 16080 with a processor speed of 1.2 Ghz while the processors actual speed is 1.5 Ghz.
even i did a factory reset and tried running the benchmarks.. but still the same results in 16k-17 window..
is any one else facing this issue after installing the update
Isn't it affected by the numbers if apps you have on your phone? And it's always better to do a restart and run the bench mark right after before running any other apps.
And btw, those numbers means nothing. Don't get hooked onto those apps, it doesn't mean your phone is any slower than others.

Yes, those are just numbers .. but still i was puzzled if it was happening after installing the update.... otherwise the phone is fine. except for the known heating problem :cyclops:

But the fact that Antutu is showing he has a 1.2 Ghz processor, for me is a reason to worry. Even if the numbers are lower, it should show 1.5Ghz.
So, maybe there is some overheating problem on his phone.
Antutu has recently been updated - refer the comments on the Play Store. Seems other people with different phones getting high scores before the update and then lower scores post update.
I think this is the solution to the problem...... Mind you I just ran Antutu and got 20656

When the XZ heats up, the processor throttles down. That's why it shows you the 1.2Ghz.

AnTuTu is kinda generalization of hardware accessibility and performance
So i think it almost depend on Kernel, after that update all kernels updated to Feb. kernel (a kernel with different date)
and Sony said will update xperia Z to 4.2.2 with 3.6 (*nix) kernel
and it can increase performance and higher AnTuTu benchmark
:good:

As far as I am concerned, I think these are all crap in reality. Because you can run these benchmarks over and over again and keep getting different results, even after disabling things like autosync etc.
In theory the phone should run benchmarks faster when it is colder, but when I ran these tests they were much worse.
My phone didn't change much after updates for bench mark scores.
Phones do have a thermo throttling of the CPU to stay within the SAFE temperature ranges, so the 1.2GHz will most likely have something to do with this.

Yes, indeed the benchmark programs depend on many factors.. i had factory restored the Rom from Sony Pc companion, and again the first time i run, it shows me 20k number.. and then it gradually decreases when i run again. i wonder if its the same with other phones which have the same processor.

Well ran it just after you mentioned this got 18000, next run 20170 and nothing really can have changed between those runs, and that is a significant difference

does it show the same processor speed in two runs?
so your e-p***s just got smaller after update ?

Surely did, phone is always really fast, so I do not believe these benchmarks. Maybe I was running on just 3 cylinders (cores)
In other words, don't trust benchmarks

partly true.. but it the difference is way too much with others scores then points to a problem in the device...

Don't think so, every device I have used has done the same thing, find it impossible to believe that it is a problem device. The problem is most likely to do with the way that a phone operates, if the memory does a garbage collection event while you are doing a test, is going to throw a ridiculous result

Hello!
I just ran an antutu benchmark on my note and the score is far too low for this phone!!
Any ideas on what's going on?
I'm on stock Oreo BTW.

If your phone was warm when you ran the test, that will effect the results.
Not used Antutu for a while but there should be an imformation tab, there you can see the battery temperature amongst other details. Try running it again when the battery is around 26-28c.
Hopefully then it will be a normal result.
Just ran Antutu and got 203k on stock Oreo.
These benchmarks are a complete waste of time. Honestly.

That actually maybe true considering Samsung uses DVFS to fake benchmarks
Also it was warm. One more thing. The benchmark was run at QHD. Does it make a difference.
Benchmarks do not reflect how the device behaves in real life, the really important thing is how your device performs in everyday circumstances or in intense scenarios
So I was "tweaking" my 3T focusing on performance víi custom roms, kernels and tweaks.
Got the scores you see in the screenshots
Any world record or something to see?
Share your best scores if possible to see. All the things I did are kinda hard to explain so if this gets enough attention I'll upload a guide or smth.
Battery isn't a priority(still 4h SOT with my usage vs 5h without anything), performance is outstanding, full 821 power.
Antutu:189K
Geekbench:
Single:1842
Multi:4778
Geekbech after another tweak:
1949
4882

I once did this to my oneplus one. Only performance . The phone scored more than it's successor i.e oneplus two. Your scores are looking great but I heard that SD 821 had some issues at higher clock speed, don't remember where. Is it stable though?
Looking forward to your guide.

0 Issues, sometimes gets a bit lower or higher scores, but overall gets scores and etc like those, 0 stability issues, works fast AF without issues, 0 heat, PUBG for an hour HDR Ultra with antialiasing and felt lil hot but so similar without anything so 0 problems!

Will share it in 2-3 days, all I can say is that I'm using NitrogenOS 8.1 with Mady's kernel with some "modifications", I'll post exactly what I have(Exact kernel ver/ROM/Firmware/Partitions/Apps Installed/Gapps...) to get at least a 30% boost of extra power of what you are used to see or feel.
