Does this phone and the galaxy Y duos etc has a separate GPU like the original ace (not the 'i') or is the CPU is modified to do GPU calculations. Some people say that it has Videocore IV of broadcom as it's GPU but I don't think that's the case. This is what I've found that Ace duos and Y duos Both of which use Broadcom BCM21553 as cpu
Note that I found no mention of videocore IV in these phone, by samsung or by broadcom and also so please if anyone knows the correct answer please tell me . In the gsmarena review it has been said that the Ace duos is using a cheaper chipset that the usual Qualcom one found on these kind of entry level phones.
I could not post link as I am new to XDA so it prevents me from it hence I've attached a zip containing screenshots of the details that I've found on the matter from pda.net,broadcom's official site etc............ nothing more nothing less
BCM21553 VideoCore 4
its using BCM21553 VideoCore 4 ARMv6 Based on ARM Cortex-A9
max display = full hd
and is used in Samsung Galaxy Y[2][3][4] Samsung Wave Y, Samsung Galaxy Mini (GT-S5570i), Samsung Galaxy Ace (models 5830i/c
gt-s6802/m and 5839i),Samsung Galaxy [email protected] (GT-B5330), Vodafone Smart 2 (Alcatel TCT V860)

What is "Galaxy S Plus"?
Vs the regular Galaxy S - the CPU is more or less equal, the GPU is better on Galaxy.
Plus is basically a bit of an upgrade to the original galaxy s. Same case but new CPU. 1.4ghz single core if I remember correctly.

I've been looking at the SGS+ but the lack of dev support has been a big sticking point!
We live in hope.
galaxy s plus is better only on GPU... che nexus one's cpu is better than galaxy s1 family
I don't know much about sgs plus, but normal sgs has a superior Gpu, while cpu is more or less the same.

Again, I was reading some things in phone arena and ended clicking this article
Resuming: The phone was confirmed (along with Galaxy Ace 2) with the following characteristics
3.27 inch screen (from 3.14 inch)
resolution of 320 x 480 pixels (from original 240 x 320 pixels; around 176 ppi)
single-core 800MHz processor (Qualcomm MSM7227, no arm7 , more info here http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=cpu&id=a7227&c=qualcomm_msm7227)
512MB of RAM
a 3MP camera (exactly the same)
4GB of native storage
FULL INFO: www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_mini_2_s6500-3883.php
Video demonstration:
www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=NhmWPIY_b8o
This will replace our phone directly (this means, the original galaxy mini will not longer sold) and it will be available starting next month in France initially
Price (I will add more info about the price as soon they are known):
The Galaxy mini 2 price stands at around $265 (200 euro) in Netherlands without contract
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
AND it will maybe get ICS update (most probably)
So, Maybe I'll buy it or buy the Ace, what do you think?
but,squadzone said he will only build a custom rom for galaxy mini with qualcomm standard 600Mhz...and i only love squadzone custom rom....
what about price for this two phone ? if the galaxy mini it is in the same price it would be great!!! ^^
i dont think the price will be the same as our original galaxy mini....look at all the features...except camera,everything is better... and squadzone's rom \m/..

What is upgraded is galaxy mini 2 has 16M colors, bluetooth version 3, 1300 mAH, and the rest is listed above.
will be very very different with ours.
and the price won't be the same, I think. hope it won't be too much higher.
and I hope it could get CM7 ROM like this one.
nice size of internal storage
but if our galaxy mini is no longer producted it means our phone gonna be legendary, LOL

I don't think it's the same arm v6. I've watched the video of Galaxy Mini 2 and it can play flash on the browser!
And, yes. of course we expect the newest software for every new Android device.
Mini 2 have a very bit upgrade from Ace...
but it still a good device to replace Galaxy Mini.
... that about apps for mini?
From what i've heard.It would be upgraded to the latest version of android Ice cream sandwich and that sounds greatt..

Oh, sorry, I readed the the article and posted it here yesterday, and I did a little research but no luck , but, I added this to the first page, as well the video, thanks!
And, because is a new phone, it will get ICS, so, I'm looking forward to it
For me isn't a big upgrade for the phone, i want the Galaxy Ace 2. and I think that will be my next phone.
Hi, found that news. Don't know if this is good for us or not, but mini uses also same videocore IV as Y.
News:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/broadcom-releases-egl-drivers-for-samsung-galaxy-y/
We have a different chipset so it is not of interest for us
But from many sources I get thet mini uses BCM21553 - Broadcom Videocore 4.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1567101
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VideoCore
Or it's just a confusing topic
You needed to specify that you're taliking about s5570I..It seems the same one..It should be good to get full hw acceleration if so..
i think it can be copiled/ported for mini too
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=ZuNOCh-zetA#t=368s
Looks like the Galaxy Grand will be powered by a BCM28150 chip, it is armv7 so I'm not too sure of the things we would gain out of it
But since it runs android 4.1 and still has a Videocore IV GPU, I think we can still get some useful stuff out of its firmware
What do you guys think?
R: Galaxy Grand Duos will be using a Broadcom chip (android 4.1)
Galaxy SII Plus will use a Broadcom chipset....
Inviato dal mio Nexus 7 4.2.1
Quad-core POWER
well lets hope broadcom and samsung to work on S5830i too
One good thing is that....new and bigger devs will start working on broadcom chips. If thats the case. We can ask for their help in many cases.
Sent from GT S5830i from Broadcom Headquarters.
even 2 year old galaxy s2 beats the recently released broadcom powered dual core s2 plus in benchmarks - so no high hopes for this one
why fix it if it ain't broken ?
HOPE....
lets hope this will gain as anythng useful..............................damn samsung for this condition
I also heard that galaxy s2 plus has terrible GPU scores.33fps while the original s2 can do 55 fps.Same old Video core 4 gpu.Does that really serve a purpose?
GT S5830i-Rocking on Broadcoms gpu...
I think we can get something usefull from it, but not much. Let's hope that we will have a working wifi\bluetooth\gps\etc. from it.

I am not sure about this except in linpack and glbench egypt 1080p offscreen, SII Plus wins quite decently
source: GSMArena Preview
And in linpack GA quotes they suspect some linpack issue.
I'm also interested in Galaxy Grand Duos recently released in India. Since it too is suspected to be on broadcom I was searching and found this
^its a good buy nevertheless quadrant scores are impressive . Moreover sunspider and browsermark looks promising as well . Only multi threaded benchmarks come out bit disappointing but i don't think there will be any noticeable performance differences in real life

Can someone please enlighten me.
Thanks
