Hi.
When i bought my SGN i knew it was the fastest phone at the time.
Now, 4 months later i've got myself a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1.
First thing i did, was to get some ICS on it. I used AOKP ROM.
To see how well it performed, i ran a Quadrant test on it. It scored good, and even better after i activated overclock (1,4GHz)
Just for the fun of it, i ran the same test on my SGN, and i was surprised over the results!
SGN:

Quadrant is unreliable.
people still use quadrant?
It's a bar graph showing the different results of an application called "Quadrant". The higher the bar the "faster" your device is perceived to be. This tool is often used to determine the speed of devices when they are first received or used to determine how well a specific ROM/Kernel/Mod works.
If you need any more explaining please let me know.
Oh god, a benchmark thread!!
What are you trying to accomplish with this app if you have both devices in hand.
Use them and you can see if one performs better. If you need an app to tell you that then surely there is no noticeable difference.

Thank you for not jumping my throat like the other posters seems to do
My SGN seems fastest in some games f.x. Temple Run.
So i wondered why the device with the lowest score, performed best in this game.
Now i know that benchmarks zre used for testing the performance of different roms on the same device (if i understood you correctly)

quadrant means nothing. literally. there are hacks to the kernel that can skew the results heavily.
Quadrant is not a reliable result. Can't find some dev's comment that put it perfectly...

I hate how quadrant combines everything. Most of your score is I/O port speed.
Quadrant really needs to break down each benchmark separately and compare them better (ex: CPUvsCPU ). Overall it seems pretty comparable to the Nexus if you try to match up what counts. Looking at it, Tab has a slower processor, faster GPU, faster port IO, and comparable 2D. Nothing we didn't know already comparing our Nexus chips with the Tegra 2.

Yes, you used a benchmark.
You do not want to use a benchmark, for they are unreliable and full of crap. (I needed a few years until I fully understood this, too)
The main purpose of "multimedia benchmarks" is to make you want to buy a newer, faster device with a higher benchmark score.
If your device feels fast enough, it is fast enough.
STOP USING FREAKING BENCHMARKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
jeez....
If you put the gov. on performance or ondemand you can easily get the score in the 3k with the GN.
Also, benchmarks don't mean anything.
It's like saying that 1000hp Bugatti can go around a track faster than the Ferrari 458 because it has 400+ more horsepower. It just doesn't. The Bugatti may perform faster, but it doesn't quite move like the 458...get it?
Horrible comparison btw.

Because quadrant is horribly unreliable. It is comically unreliable. Reviewers don't even use it anymore and have long since moved to better benchmarks. Quadrant's flaws are heavily documented and go waaaaay back. The most notable major criticism of Quadrant was from Cyanogen some 2 years ago:
http://androidspin.com/2010/08/23/my-quadrant-is-bigger-than-your-quadrant/
http://briefmobile.com/cyanogen-demonstrates-quadrants-flaws
Quadrant has not improved since then.
Well firstly you thought wrong when you bought your nexus as the galaxy s 2 is much much faster than the nexus so there was your first problem, second I would probably expect the galaxy tab to be faster as the nexus is a slow device and thirdly you are using benchmarks.
I'd do more research in future.before buying phones and tablets and would of bought galaxy s 2 for speed and Asus transformer prime for a tablet.

Is anyone else noticing that the GPU in this phone is very slow when comparing it to some other Galaxy S and Galaxy S II models? Previously I had a Samsung Epic 4G and the GPU in smart bench 2011 would score ~2200. Now the Epic 4G has the same PowerVR SGX540 as the galaxy nexus so it should score and perform just as well.
Now I also have a Galaxy S II Epic Touch 4G and the specs for that phone are similar to the Galaxy Nexus. The Epic Touch has a Mali 400 and scores ~2500. Now the the Epic Touch will play N64oid just fine with no lag at all where the Epic would lag a bit.
When playing N64oid on the Galaxy Nexus its just a slow and laggy as my old droid charge was. Now the Galaxy Nexus will not score above ~1800 in smartbench. The droid charge scores higher than that.
Any ideas can any one post their scores so I can see if its just my phone?
Keep in mind the GN's GPU is rendering over 2 times more pixels.
Disclaimer: I don't know if Smartbench runs their benchmarking at native resolutions.
Good point....
Can any one run smart bench 2011 and post a screen shot so i know its not my device?

Don't put your faith in stretchmarks. At the end of the day if one GPU scores higher then the other on smart bench but both run the games you wanna play with no problems then whats the point of having the bigger number?
And are you running @ 308 or 384?

Same reason why people overclock their computers / obsessed about not getting 100+ fps. Oh the eye can't notice any difference above 30 fps but people want 250 fps anyway.
Keep in mind that the benchmark that you're using is not optimized for ICS. So its a unaccurate result. Benchmarks don't mean anything. It's real-time performance that really matters.

Most people seem to notice the difference between say, 30 and 60fps in video. The eye is pretty capable of noticing sluggishness because it happens in contrasts, even if they can't count each frame.

Lol (?) I can't seem to find the scientific or even opinionated "proof" that people can't tell the difference. Even subjective experience tells me that people can tell the difference in displays so I don't know why it's treated as a glib fact by you. There seems to be a lot of tests and experiments out there just by doing a cursory search. Can you point me to the definitive evidence?

If the image switches between black and white each frame, the image appears to flicker at frame rates slower than 30 FPS (interlaced). In other words, the flicker fusion point, where the eyes see gray instead of flickering tends to be around 60 FPS (inconsistent). However, fast moving objects may require higher frame rates to avoid judder (non-smooth, linear motion) artifacts — and the retinal fusion point can vary in different people, as in different lighting conditions. - Wikipedia
For object motion, 30 vs 60 can be a huge difference, most noticeable when turning.

Sooo would this be the same for any app or game? Its going to render using the CPU(software) and not use the GPU....? That sounds a bit strange but in this case would be the reason why it runs so slow.
I just did a benchmark test with AnTuTu with the htc sensation xe stock of my brother, and my Gnex and am a bit disappointed with the result of my Gnex, this sucks.

Ok. Well you should know that most benchmarks aren't optimized for ICS yet. Also, the Galaxy Nexus uses a much higher resolution than most other phones, so it will probably score a little lower based on that fact alone. It's like turning the resolution down on a video game to make it run faster.

ok man all that I know, but the creator of AnTuTu said that his benchmark is optimized for ICS.
sure benchmark scores don't mean anything... but was also sad when i had almost identical scores with the Rezound(stock) & the GN(stock).
1. i realize they aren't "optimized" for ICS yet
2. what kind of scores will the Rezound get once it has ICS also

On a serious note, I didn't buy my Nexus for performance and speed, but rather for its amazing UI, ability to get updates first from Google as well as have various issues fixed with timely upgrades, huge developer base, 720p screen and most importantly, no bloatware. The specs of the Nexus are good enough for my standards. Everything is buttery smooth with not even the slightest lag on Android Revolution HD 2.1.2 with Jame Bond Kernel (OC'd to 1.4GHz).

Benchmarks mean absolutely nothing. Real world performance is everything. That being said play this hd trailer http://www.hdtrailerz.com/movie-trailers/men-in-black-3 on his sensation xe and then play it on yours. Not only is the screen quality difference very distinct, you will see a difference in the fluidity of the video (that is if his phone can play it without it stopping every second).
I can definitely go out on a limb here and say:
PowerVR GPU's are definitely faster than Adreno's...
Your also testing a seasoned android version 2.3.x with new ICS. Thats like comparing Froyo to Gingerbread. Or Windows 7 to Windows 8. ICS isn't optimized yet. Plus it uses more of the GPU for GUI side.
I dont think the adreno is more powerful in power. Just like the Tegra 2 was flawless in games but scores lower in benchmarks compared to the SGS2.
If you look at the benchmarks against the Tegra 3 in the OP... 2D, 3D and stuff are about the same (3D is a little less on the Tegra 3) and most of your score comes from the CPU side with it having 4 cores and more RAM.
If My Device = Sensation then they are about equal in GPU but differ in floating point values.
I would put this in the "forget it" category. Let's wait till ICS for other devices before calling a winner.
Galaxy Nexus - 4.0.3 CM9
Asus Transformer - 3.2 Revolver
Erm...am I missing something? Both phones have a pretty similar spec, wouldn't you expect them to have similar benchmarks?
I haven't experienced much lag using the phone, assuming you haven't either I fail to see the importance of the benchmarks.

Can you show the court on this mock unit where thebad phone touched you?
Fark me. you serious?? The XE has a lesser screen resolution and you're worried about it beating the GN in benchmarks???
How about you go swap with your Bro and use the XE for a few days and see how much it lags.. You'll be crawling back to your Bro for forgiveness and wanting the GN back for sure...
I had the XE for 2 days and ebay'd it. The only thing the XE has over the GN is the quality feel that every HTC device has..
Xda needs a benchmark section haha
scored around 6000 on antutu with a stock GSM nexus, not a benchmark whore as my atrix o/c to 1.45ghz with cm7 but its silky smooth, and thats what counts. even the atrix stutters with a great quadrant/antutu score, so it doesnt mean much
I think some people aren't really made for a Nexus.

A prevalent question on these Nitro forums is whether or not to buy it...As compared to <whatever> phone. I think the most common comparison is with the Samsung Galaxy S2.
The problem is, the GS2 is an 800x480 resolution phone. To get an idea of why that doesn't make sense, go ahead and set your laptop's screen resolution to 800x600. How's that look to you? Now walk over to your computer and set it to 1280x800, how's that?
Not exactly a controlled and scientific comparison right? Different systems, different screens, different just about everything.
IMHO, if you're considering the Nitro and want to compare it to something?...Then there's really only 1 other phone (in the US, anyway); the HTC Rezound which has the exact same CPU/GPU chipset and 1280x720 screen (LCD though, not IPS). You could also compare with the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, there's a LOT of variances there too but it's one of the only phones that also has the 1280x720 screen.
I stress the commonality of 1280x720 because not everything works properly (or even at all) when trying to display at this resolution and also there's potential draw delays to compensate. So make sure you're looking at the other phones that could share this same hurdle so you set your expectations accordingly.
good points, thanks!
To add two more 720P phones were announced at ces coming to AT&T. The Sony Xperia Ion and the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket HD.
@Namura: Appreciate the "cold water" treatment. might make others think twice both for flaming the P930 and the comparison to other units.
@Kindawack: prototypes/announced phones don't figure into what he is talking about, as they are not market launched yet.

Yeah, I wonder about the validity of their info as well. Considering the Samsung Note LTE for AT&T was only announced yesterday at CES...With the only confirms being 1.5GHz Qualcomm chipset (but no verification as to which model) and availability as "in the coming months"...Whereas that pdadb shows it as releasing in Feb and has the same APQ8060 chip as our Nitro.
man, i am way past waiting for the next kick ass phone to be released. I had been waiting since the droid bionic announcement (the 1st one ;-0) prior to getting this nitro.
not playing the *let's give it another month and see what's released* game no mo!

Yup, I agree. I spent 5 months waiting for nothing..... as each day passes I'm more and more pleased with the Nitro.

I am constantly hoping for a CWM breakthrough for our phone but then I remember that I am actually 100% satisfied with my rooted, debloated, blue icon and battery mod, go launcher ex Nitro, then I don't worry about CWM as much.
Same here. As long I am rooted, debloated, custom launcher (zean) and sim unlocked I am good. Custom roms would nice but a lot of time, they are a pain to keep up.

I know benchmarks dont mean squat, but I am surprised how Nitro HD fairs well in any 3D benchmarks especially with 720p screen and sub-optimised soft. See attached Antutu benchmark. Barely behind Galaxy Nexus with ICS.
I just fired up Shadowgun and it does drop a frame here and there. No Tegra afterall but 4.5 inch 720p is looking better than I remember playing on Atrix 4G.
LMAO
IPS is just one type of LCD,
IPS, MVA, PVA, ASV are all good screen types,
the only bad screen is TN, which is never used on high end android devices.
AMOLED sucks IMO, over saturated, and your vision killer. Dont even mention most of the AMOLED on the market is pentile display.

Not much differences.
Hello, lads! 'Names Abdi, and i'm new here to the xda forums. I'm looking for a new phone, done with my S1. After long search, I've narrowed it down to these 2 phones. The Samsung Galaxy Nexus and the Samsung Galaxy SII HD LTE from Bell Mobility. Before we start this face off, let me list some of my requirements for a smartphone:
Need microSD. I have a large music library (over 13 GB).
Need Gorilla Glass.
Need good camera.
As you guys can tell, these are all areas the Galaxy Nexus does not do well in. But here comes the catch, and this may help you with your arguments. The GS2 HD LTE has little developer support. Only 2 working roms on xda right now.
*Keep in mind: The GS2 HD LTE in this picture is not the one I'm looking at buying. This one is the international version. I am looking at the Bell Mobility version. They are basically the same phone, except for a little hardware differences. Same specs and all. Here is a picture of the Bell phone: http://www.technobuffalo.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/20120418_C6680_PHOTO_EN_12455-625x1024.jpg *

Per your requirements, SGSII. GN has not expandable memory.
However, the GN development is huge and its a very important aspect unless your are planning rocking stock firmware.
In any case, I doubt you go through your ENTIRE music library every week, month or whatever it may be. If you're like many, you won't often find yourself re-listening 75% of your library.
Consider Spotify or another streaming service which allows for offline playlists with no commitment to store all your tunes on your device.
Camera-wise. When it comes to mobile phones, the megapixel count hardly ever makes a difference and it should not be used solely to judge the quality. I've found that all modern phones have very similar sensors, so the quality will be more or less the same throughout.
No Gorilla glass on the GN but just get a screen protector for it, it wont hurt anyone.

I have, you do need to turn SR off though since it doesn't calibrate high frequency properly. But every device differs, I may be able to clock it that high, yours might not. Although I don't notice any difference in terms of UI snappiness whatsoever compared to 1.2, the only difference you'll get is higher benchmark scores it seems.

Although I don't notice any difference in terms of UI snappiness whatsoever compared to 1.2, the only difference you'll get is higher benchmark scores it seems.

SR?

Honestly to be completely serious, yes I know that the processor matters a lot but this is not that much of a difference and the biggest thing is that the gnex doesn't have any crappy skin over it! That Samsung phone probably has touch wiz which will probably make it lag more than the gnex. And of course, you get the latest updates

SR= Smart Reflex. It is how your phone manages clock speeds and respective voltage for each slot. You can manually undervolt or turn smart reflex on and it will undervolt for you. I think most uses here would say SR is recommended and should be left turned on.

Nexus does indeed look much better than the SGSII. No hardware soft buttons, curved and slim profile.

No, I DONT know what you mean....
It was a reference to updates, and how most devices get left behind.
Sounds mad but I've overclocked my galaxy nexus to 1.8Ghz. So dual 1.8Ghz is quite something!
Is it even possible I don't know. Least what ROM toolbox says.

i have overclocked to 1.8ghz.. though i must say after some time thermal throttle reaches limits and switches off.. but that maybe cuz of my heavy usage
Hey so anyone tried using the Antutu Benchmark test? I used it for the DT2 and there are like 10 other phones that blow this thing away. My highest result was just over 53K. I am using the 64bit version. Anyone else getting better results? I thought this device would be up there with GN5...
I'm still considering trading this in for maybe the LG v10 or Note 5
Lol the V10 certainly won't be faster. So your comment is kind of funny.

I seem to remember 55k

Yeah I know, but I like the look and feel of the V10..
I'm just puzzled why the DT2 is only getting around 53-55K and other phones are seemingly blowing this one out of the water???
I just got a test result of over 59K but I accepted a phone call during the test.
I just got a 59315 with a fully configured device.

Just ran mine got over 60000
Sent from my XT1585 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Mine just pulled in a 54436. Not particularly great, but whatever. Still more than passable for me.
What?
i got this on droid turbo 1 (moto maxx)
Pulled a 62081 this morning with no tweaking. Most of my mail is set to check every 15 minutes so I may have run the test in a slow time.
I just pulled 63000 on my 64GB Droid Turbo 2 this morning, obviously the gs6 and note 5 beat the SD 810.
Benchmarked one of the display models at Best Buy with the new Antutu v6.0 app, got 84,575. That was after I'd been using the device for about 10 minutes. Sorry I don't have pics. Got 76,242 after a second go around.
Running the most current antutu it don't seem to low.

Quick question, was that after you'd been using it or did you benchmark it right away as soon as you started the phone up?

Ran it after 1/2 a day of normal use . bone stock nothing disabled or changed. Would love to see how it does on 6.0

So that's pretty dang fast then. Other sd810 devices probably would've throttled their benchmark scores way down after that usage (not much). 6.0 is coming soon, I don't think Motorola will have a repeat of the last gen turbo, not getting the update until way after the Moro x 2014 got it. Especially since employee editions already have it. Performance should go up, and we just might see more geek bench results in the low 5000s. Speaking of which, I also ran geekbench on the display model, got 4,362. Again, no pics.

Yeah it's not as fast as my s6 but the battery life kills my s6. And I like the phone so far. In terms of speed its fast enough.

Okay. Thats surprising, slower than an S6, of which lagged like crazy when I used one. The turbo 2 was literally the fastest device I have used in a while, X Pure aside. But Que sera, Que sera. Benhmarked above the samsungs tho. But hey, everybody's got a different boat to float, right? S6 battery life is abysmal, so not hard for turbo 2 to kill it off in that regard.
My wife has the S6, which she gets along with very well. But being that the S6 was mentioned earlier in this thread, I have to say that when it comes to updating/installing apps and checking Storage/Cached data, the S6 is much faster at processing all of that. I still prefer my Turbo 2 to her S6.
