I want to buy a Galaxy S but... which is better? Galaxy S Plus has a few custom roms.. But its 1400 mhz.. hummingbird or scorpion? I'm a noob on these smartphones. some people say Galaxy S's processor is better than SGS+'s.. Which could I buy? Thanks.
I will recommend paying a few more and go for galaxy r .
Samsung Hummingbird is the best single-core chipset. ARM Cortex-A8 with PowerVR SGX540 = awesome combination.

The sgs+ is better compared to hardware, (there is the + for) but in my opinion the sgs is a better choice cause there are more people with this phone.. more people = more devs = more custom roms
And if you can pay more.. sgs2 is a much better choice

I agree with you. i9001 have a better hardware but have less devs working on them!
i9000 by far. Much more software, and in my opinion better machine.
BR
I'm running 1400 mhz on stock voltage of 1000 mhz. And -125 mv undervolted all of other frequencies.
Also I have a hummingbird + powervr 540 gpu
So I have Galaxy S+++
I9000 to the win

i9000+ will provide better web experience from the start thanks to higher cpu frequency, but you can oc i9000 to get pretty much the same effect. You need to decide whether you want customize your phone or use as it is straight grom the box. In terms of graphics i9000 crushes the i9000+, because it's powered by powervr540 while i9000+ uses adreno205 which is older and slower. Also there's the community backup thing. i9000 is one of the most popular and supprted android phones and this will continue even though much more powerful devices are released. It's just so user friendly in so many ways you can't ignore it. My vote would be for i9000, but it all comes down to what do you want from your phone and what are you going to use it for. Either way you go, you'll ebd up with a great sammy phone.

i9001 is a nice choice, but i9000 better because of community and official samsung support.
I'll recommend u to look at the LG Optimus Black - it has almost the same price/specs but it's a newer model, so u'll get a support for a longer time...
I was in same situation as you, I choosed i9000 and I don't regret it - you can OC the CPU and the PowerVR SGX540 is much better than Adreno 205 + more ROMs and mods, bigger community, more people with this phone. I get around 3500 score in Quadrant benchmark.
..
Look guys i know all people owning the i9000 are very proud of the powervr sgx540 gpu it uses, but actually adreno 205 is better than sgx 540, samsung has recently updated the adreno 205 gpu drivers in the galaxy w which uses the same chipset as the i9001, those who have the i9001 can download these egl drivers from here "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1376462"
i have personally tested both the phones. the i9001 is in fact a good choice, the 1.4 ghz snapdragon cpu is the best single core processor i have seen, I don't want to hurt anyone here but all phones get old after sometime, the i9000 cant stay on the top always,and now we have the dual cores ready to woop our ares anytime
galaxy s i9000
for sure
DO THANK if you feel i helped you
Definitely the I9000! The latest stock rom (JW1) is incredibly smooth!

The Adreno 205 is not better, it's a piece of crap actually. 265m fillrate? that is the same as PowerVR MBX lite. PowerVR GPUs have much higher fillrate 1G fillrate which ensures gameloft games can be rendered with A.I. with lots of activities on screen. Adreno 205 renders OpenGL benchmark at very low choppy frame rates with disappearing polygons while PowerVR GSX 540 runs it smoothly without graphics glitches.
The 1.4GHz snapdragon processor is indeed better for multi-tasking, but what is the use of a faster processor with a combination of a ****ty GPU?
Not everybody is dependant on a gamer GPU. I personally don't play any games at all on my phone. So this depends on what you want your phone to deliver.

Isn't that only available for Roger's network in the USA and not worldwide?
you can't get the answer here... because most of the guys here have Galaxy S i9000, so they have to defend they're own device lol!!! and for all you guys here who doesn't know anything about "GPU's" i can give you a quiick info. here is a simple benchmark by two of the most respectable benchmarking groups anandtech and mobiletechworld.
http://www.mobiletechworld.com/2010...-vs-sgx540-htc-desire-hd-vs-samsung-galaxy-s/
PowerVR SGX540 is a beast but Adreno 205 held its floor against it and wins by inches at the majority of categories. (slap on the face of the sgx540) users hahahahaha :silly:
http://iphone.appleinsider.com/arti...r-graphics-performance-vs-apple-iphone-6-plus
I have see a Note 4 running GTA on YouTube,, and it was lagging badly..
Yes gpu delivers lower performance than iphone 6 but its not poor .both gpus have same power but 2k lowers note 4 performance but its still more powerful than ipad air which has lower res.
And the video u saw on youtube is quallcom version of note 4 and adreno gpu s always lagged on gta games on high setting due to lack of optimzation.

So because it doesn't do well in one benchmark the GPU is somehow worthless? :silly: According to apple insider apparently the Geforce GTX 660TI is faster than an AMD 290X. That's some quality reporting right there.
Well I'm no expert but look up GTA Note 4 on YouTube, looks terribly laggy.
I'm hoping to get a Note 4 - but not if it can't perform..
Outside of that being Apple dedicated website, running just one benchmark and writing nonsense (they start writing about Note 4, then post preliminary??? cost analysis of GS 4???? from 1.5 yr ago, WTF) I'm not sure if it's propaganda or somebody overdose on something or maybe forgot his medication
I think both.
Not optimized. Performance WILL be fine on other games. Don't worry.

It's not lag. The camera just has a really low fps. Look at his other videos and even his hand moving looks like it "lags". It's just the camera don't worry.
You will be able to play most games, just not at the maximum settings, these tests are much more intensive than the mobile games, to the people talking about the screen resolution, there is also an offscreen test which doesn't care about the resolution and the scores are still lower.

offscreen tests care about res just not screen res. all offscreen tests done in 1080p and a8 gpu and note 4 gets around 17 fps on offscreen tests. and both higher than my ipad air and i can play everything at full without a stutter i dont think there will be any problem.
Oh no.. a poorly optimized game isn't as fast as it is on an iPhone. Oh jeez it MUST perform awful.. right?

Oh, cmon guys, little reality check: Note 4 is one of, if not the fastest phone on the market ATM. If it can not play the games properly, nothing else can. In most benchmarks Exynos is as fast or faster than Snapdragon. There is something about this particular benchmark that makes Exynos run poorly, that's why it was picked for this article. And how come no Note4 Snapdragon version? Maybe because Snapdragon doesn't have the issue? The most opinionated bunch of crap I read in a long while.
(PcMark for android)
PCMark for Android introduces a fresh approach to benchmarking smart phones and tablets. It measures the performance and battery life of the device as a complete unit rather than a set of isolated components. And its tests are based on common, everyday tasks instead of abstract algorithms.
Finally, a benchmark application confirms what I have been saying for the past 3 months.......
Note3 (N900 Exynos: android 5.0) out-performs my Note 4 (Exynos: android 4.4.4)
Can you test and post your scores with Note 4 ( android 5.0.1 lollipop ) ?
Highest Scores so far (stock devices) ….
------------------------v1.2--------------------------------
Note 4, N910C Exynos, Lollipop: 5455

4901.. I'm having bad results at video playback .. so, as I have said.. the problem with the bad optimization of the GPU on Lollipop is affecting the overall result.. I think with the next update the results will increase..

All I know is no more non home made soc for me with Samsung. They seem to be wining the chip war like they did with the gs2 and gs3
SM-N910C Lollipop. Room temp: ~20°C
I figured out the low video score is because of using experimental player in developer options
So, without the experimental video player, i had a similar result. Looks like that in the best scenario we can get 5000 points...
4942 points...
so far, no Note4 has managed to cross the 5000 mark, let alone beat the Note3 score of 5097.
Interesting !!
hello everyone Today I have updated my aututu benchmark to V. 6.0 and as I saw many things have changed including 3D testing and it was so lagyy when I tested it on my 5.1.1 exynos note4 I will share with you some pics of the results my total score was 66868, make atest on yours devices and tell me about your scores.

I dunno if i am the only one who feels that gpu performance is lowered there was a bug in android 5.0.1 in exynos variant that made gpu run on half of its speed i thought it was fixed in android 5.1.1 but in real life performance i have noticed some lag in games like asphalt 8 a lag that wasn't found in kitkat u can notice this lag when game is showing map before the race in 3 2 1, i hope if note 4 owners share their experience with gpu performance in 5.1.1 update

Some games are not optimised for the exynos variants thats why there is a lag...
other than that it gives a fluent performance and sometimes performs better than snapdragon (experience with note 2, note 3, lg g pro and note 4)
i have 74889 score on Antutu 6
i put My Note 4 in the fridge while testing and i was overclock it to max 3000 GHZ cpu and 800 GPU

The Snapdragon 805 is a beast of a SoC
Sent from my Note 4 using Tapatalk
From what i can deduce from dn5 roms or other roms based on note 5 that note 5's rom is made in such a way that it cheats antutu to get a score of 80+ (if it is scoring less than this in ideal conditions), like it increases the scores of ux, its like we have an ssd builtin our note 4 which we cant use untill we r on note 5 rom, but in reality its not ssd. i m not saying that xda or independent developers have any kind of hand in this but samsung might do this kind of thing and they have done something like this in the past.
This is a theory.
No offence to anyone.

Lets make it clear i dont and i never trusted antutu i but Wat is weird is that exynos score was much higher than snapdragon in kitkat then in android 5.0.1 exynos had a gpu bug that made it's acore lower than snapdragon, now in android 5.1.1 this bug is supposed to be fixed so why snapdragon is scoring more than exynos by more than 3k

Hi,
I have a Galaxy Note 8 exynos version. Fortnite runs on medium on my phone However I seen other Note 8's (snapdragon) which run it on epic settings without no problems. Does anyone know why ?

Hmm not sure, but I'm guessing it's due to the different SoC? Not sure if true or not, but I had read once that the Snapdragon was slightly better for 3d graphics while the exynos was slightly better for multitasking and battery life. That could potentially explain it, but it could also just be something coded wrong in the app itself (it's beta) that might get fixed in a future update. Speculation only of course
Its the same with PUBG mobile. Snapdragon variant can play HDR and Ultra Frame rate (40fps) while exynos only Hd and high. (30fps). I dont know why the do that to similar devices.

Probably because of the different SoC.
you can play pubg on 60fps there is an app called gfx tools in playstore. you can select hdr but it really heats up the phone and i couldnt really get a good fps with it. kernel keeps lowering cpu speed even though dvfs is disabled. but low graphics on 60fps is very nice.

It's disappointing that the Exynos variant currently is stuck on Medium while the Snapdragon one reaches Epic. I know there's a performance difference, but it's not supposed to be THAT big.
Hopefully, Epic will improve performance.
