ahhh that explains apples latest offerings then

Trawling through the papers for some dirt , how desperate

Nope, just popped up on Reddit. I know how the Fandroids just love a benchmark score and bigger numbers so I hope this helps them out of an embarrassing situation, as ever I'm here to help.

Benchmarks are power runs for phones, use all cylinders and full revs to see what it can do. Every manufacturer will optimise their system to give the best results.

Are you guys still on at this?



You all love each other really don't you?

Go on guys, group hug. You know you want to!

Even without the benchmark booster it still spanks everything else, including Jacks beloved iphone 5s (by 20%), so who cares about benchmarks anyway?

Galifrey

iTrader: (3)

Indeed, my only concern is that ALL phones don't run full tilt when running a demanding app or benchmark?

JackClark

Real life usage it's slow compared to the iPhone. Read a few reviews.

"Geekbench results

iPhone 5s (A7, 1.3GHz Dual Core) = 2538


Or at least it was faster until people started benchmarking the new Galaxy Note 3...

Galaxy Note 3 (Snapdragon 800 processor, 2.3GHz Quad Core) = 4057"

"There is also the fact that while everyone else is offering quad core chips Apple is sticking with sticking with dual core. Why doesn't Apple offer a quad core iPhone?

Quad core makes no sense if you can't properly 'turbo up' when some cores are idle, explains AnandTech. The technology to take advantage of it isn't there yet."

My Note 3 mullers my mates 5s even with 2 cores tied behind its back

JackClark

Shallow Fandroids only think about addressing extra ram, innovative Apple proves that 64bit has many more benefits.

http://appleinsider.com/articles/13/...apps-and-games

Andyroid, have a read of this bit, you'll love it.

"As a result, Apple's iPhone 5s delivers performance equal or better performance to Samsung's latest large phablet, despite the Note 3 being equipped with twice the system RAM, a system clock running twice as fast and a battery over twice as large (3,200 mAh vs 1570 mAh in the iPhone 5s). It's not only faster (above), but vastly more efficient, allowing iPhone 5s to beat the Note 3 in battery life when browsing the web over LTE. "

Except that those Note 3 scores are wrong...

JackClark

You're right, Samsung are dirty *******s, lower the scores by a good amount and the iPhone trounces it, no cheating.

What use is it if it's constantly crashing.

Ha, taking a leaf out of the book of Android. Colin McRae crashed less.

It isn't cheating to allow the cpu to run all cores at full speed when running a benchmark.

The phone will do this in most cases anyway, but allows for the fact that they may run the benchmark with a low battery. It isn't jacking up the speed above 2.3ghz, it is forcing it to run at 2.3ghz.

Even taking it's top score and deducting 20% 4057 x 80% = 3245 which still canes the iphone 5s, in a nutshell, the figures on that site you quoted, a mac site, are rubbish. Anyone can make up figures and say theirs is better.

JackClark

Isn't cheating, LOL. How come they don't run it flat out all the time then? I'll answer for you, it would melt and the battery would last 5 minutes. Anyone who thinks changing the behaviour of a device when it detects it's being tested isn't cheating is brainwashed.

Do you drive your vehicle at full revs all the time, well no you don't, it will run out of fuel in no time. Exactly the same for Samsung and any other mobile phone manufacturer. The phone can run a full bore to demonstrate it's maximum performance, a power run for phones.

Real life comparison has shown me my note 3 beats every other phone on the market at this moment

Ant

but whats the point in running full whack if it can't sustain it with out running flat in 30mins

JackClark

Here's the thing though Andyroid, you can't run the phone that fast, it's exclusively for benchmark tests. You do a benchmark test and believe that's how fast your phone can be, but then you find out Samsung has been lying to you, your world falls apart and you start making excuses.

JackClark

The Fandroids are squirming Ant, they're realising they've been lied to, tricked by marketing.

I don't need to run my phone that fast, it does it, if needed. Like I don't need to use my 500bhp all the time, just when I need it

JackClark

If needed, like in a benchmark test? That's the only time you'll see your 500bhp. You'd be far better off not commenting on this thread, you're sounding desperate.

What utter rowlocks, it might run flat on the pathetic iphone size battery, but the note 3 has a decent battery which can be upgraded to 7500mah...

So lets not go there on battery life eh?

The point is that most apps cannot stress the cpu enough to allow the cores to run at full speed, same on most phones, although what samsung has done is a bit dodgy ethically, it does not overclock the cpu it just allows it to run at the speed at which it is capable of.
