Apparently it's just marginally faster then the USA version of the sgs3.
But not if you are oc.

Not really... if this thing is only marginally faster than the USA version (not Exynos), then the international is probably already better. In that respect, it's safe to assume anyway that Samsung will obviously release a way faster S4 anyway.
Also S3 was released a couple months back meanwhile this was released just recently and processor is only marginally faster? Granted, Apple only made it as fast as it needed to be probably
The table doesn't show the US s3, it shows the international with the quad core exynos

So what!! Who cares if it scores higher in a synthetic benchmark. Does it make you enjoy your SGS3 less?
Well, I idk if the iphone 5 (technically 6 but who's counting) is the fastest smartphone, but it is the fastest phone running iOS. Put iOS (god forbid) on my S3 or Android on the ip 5 and my S3 will run circles around it.

Yea,I don't quite trust that benchmark tool.
Anyways, cracks me up,I thought the benchmark whores on this site were bad. Man, this guys win one bench and they are going nuts. It was hilarious reading through the comments, all those guys last year were saying that benchmark don't matter and they are always incorrect now they are the most accurate tool in the world. Everyone knows benchmark are useless, I got my inside to benchmark insane numbers by tweaking just a few things. I want to see side by side comparisons, then a definitive conclusion can be drawn

Better gpu and higher clocked CPU...

Laughing at the people who jumped ship to Verizon. Hows that 2gb cap workin for ya and your inferior phone? I told y'all to wait.
The 544 GPU has the capability of clocking up to 2.5 times faster than the 540. If this is true, then I'll be excited. But... I'm not switching to an lte device until lte hits my area.

Does anyone remember the Nexus ads for Sprint that said 1.5 ghz and we thought it was a typo? I know it is just alot of speculation. But, since we probably won't see the phone launch until June it could make sense. The article said the processor is capable of 1.8 but would probably be underclocked. Maybe we are seeing an early build for the Sprint version. Anyone else think that makes sense?
Here is a link to the Sprint ad.
http://www.anandtech.com/show/5303/sprint-ad-announces-galaxy-nexus-with-15-ghz-soc
And here is link to the wiki for the Nexus that shows it its currently running 1.2
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galaxy_Nexus
The other possibility is this its the google tablet we keep hearing about. It would make sense for it to have a huge graphics processor.

Until they replace the awful screen of the original GNex, I'll way. The 'mesh' look is too distracting to look at.
Since nobody had mentioned it, it seems like it isn't important, the camera. Compared to the e4gt, its camera is lesser. Slightly bigger screen and higher resolution but reported its like looking through a screen door. A 5mp camera that chokes on 1080p. No option for a sd card. You will be stuck on 3g until lte finally makes it to your area. Okay so it has a slightly better and faster gpu and cpu, IMO, that's one of the few things it has in its favor. Ics, more meh. You'll need more CPU/GPU for that.
For the comment of having a CPU that's faster than you, that means nothing about your computer, right?
Yea just like the 5mp camera on og epic was better than of evo ... it was but guess what everyone thinks 8mp is better but it comes to sensor and such .... it still is a phone not a dslr the camera will never be that good

I really would like to get one but I'm having second thoughts about paying full price for a bigger screen. I should, but doubt I will knowing my impulsiveness, wait to see if there's any problems initially like there was with this phone when it first comes out. I will also wonder what kind of specs the g3 well have and when it will be here for us. Those are the two I'm watching. Also, if the note still has a dual core snapdragon when it comes out for us, I might pass. Two steps forward with the hardware then one back with the CPU.
Id buy one first day.

Very true statement. If it domes with an S4pro with the new adreno gpu that thing will be a monster. I know that Samsung will eventually integrate lte in their processors but when is the question.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Yes. Give me one with LTE and any exynos processor and I would be totally satisfied and have no need for anything else for the rest of that contract at least!
With how big the battery is, couldn't they just put an lte radio in there and have a toggle to turn it off and on like wimax? Then it would still be our responsibility to watch the battery. I could totally go for something like that as long as they kept the exynos. But do not count out the S4pro it has the upgraded gpu also with lte built on the die.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
If it came with ICS out of the box, and LTE support. Would definitely pick it up.
Because I too will be paying full price (unless I come up with a way to sweet talk an early upgrade out of someone) and since I'm not even 100% sold on getting the phone, I'm definitely going to wait awhile and see how it performs. Also the extra wait time will allow a chance for the SG3 to possibly make an appearance, that's the phone I really want.
But I'm a major gadget whore so there's no guarantee what I will or won't buy regardless the cost. lol
I don't know...I like the Note, but I would need a few things in order to lock myself in for 2 more years for it. First, LTE capability. ICS would be good, but not necessary at launch for me.
It would need an upgraded processor though. With the Evo LTE coming out and the SGS III likely to be announced sometime soon, I don't want to get stuck with a last gen processor for 2 years.
Honestly, I probably won't make a decision on my next phone until I see what Sammy has up their sleeve.

Yes, your artificial benchmark results definitely mean one phone is "better" than another. It has nothing to do with touchwiz / sd card / battery size / removeability.
TL;DR you bought a phone for benchmarks?

Apart from the differences in OS settings, installed apps, etc... there's also a key difference in CPU/GPU/Memory architecture.
I just got a 6857 so I don't see any problems (yes I am rooted and debloated). Benchmarks don't make or a break a phone, and in your case both devices are top-notch.
For sure, I was just surprised to see the difference. Does it matter between AT&T and t mobile? Once I unlock and debloat I'll be happy I'm sure.

This is 80% of it right here guys. I created a similar thread awhile back about low Quadrant scores on my S3. I couldn't barely even break 4000. If I just let the phone sit for 10 minutes without using it and then did a benchmark results were AMAZING. Heat definitely plays a factor. I did a test and set my phone on my A/C vent for 10 minutes and ran AnTuTu and I was at like 7300.
Relax your phone is fine
112Grams
7.6mm thick
18% thinner than 4s

Officially I don't think this phone is getting past ICS. I have high doubts about an official TW JB update for it. Only the international GSII has been officially confirmed. As we all know that phone and every other GSII has the exynos SoC so I wouldn't doubt the others can get it easily. But since we have the s3.. idk.

And I just wanna state that it's obvious that Google is listening to what people want and trying to add it to software updates! We have all been talking about how nice it would be if we had a choice of AOSP or OEM.. And voila! Google goes ahead and appears to be implementing it!.. This is totally opposite of other mobile operating systems (not naming names) that always hold back the features... This is why I will probably stay loyal to android for a long time!

Amazing... something long overdue IMHO, but better late than never (in terms of the manufacturer bloat/customization thing).
Also... I think I read something about multiple Nexus devices on their way? Very exciting!
Yes I've heard of at least 2 nexus devices!.. An LG nexus device will be released by the end of October..The name Samsung Nexus 2 has been thrown around a bit. and I think there will be one by HTC as well..
Fragmentation on Android is going to get a lot better!
