samsung benchmark

The battle for the best and most powerful Android smartphone in the world is sometimes heavily fought in benchmark scores. However, in a recent investigation by AnandTech, the Samsung Galaxy S4 was found to have been optimized for specific benchmark tools. These are the apps where the Galaxy S4 is instructed to run at full power: Quadrant (standard, advanced, and professional) Linpack (free) Benchmark Pi AnTuTu Benchmark When these apps are running, the GPU of the Galaxy S4 is forced to run at 532MHz. The same is true with the CPU (both Exynos 5 and Snapdragon 600) -- when those benchmark apps are running, the system triggers the CPU to run at maximum frequency on all 4 cores. In our review of the Galaxy S4, we saw the handset clocking in the highest scores in benchmark tests by Quadrant and Antutu. While we cannot categorically conclude that Samsung is over-clocking their chips just to score higher/better in these benchmarks, there is certainly evidence of benchmark optimization. The much awaited Omnia i900 from Samsung (see specs here) was released in the Philippines yesterday. While everybody is getting frustrated with the supposed Globe iPhone 3G pricing, the Samsung Omnia will definitely be a formidable alternative to the former.
