Samsung Galaxy Note for AT&T benchmark tests

Zipping through most basic tasks with minimal effort, like navigating across its homescreen with a static wallpaper, we’re content with the performance it’s exhibiting out of the box. Moreover, it continues to maintain its level of performance in nearly every aspect...

I know someone is going to cry over this because it have the S3 but the fact is the original one could not handle LTE is why Samsung use the S3. I hope the At&t enjoy the phone.

yeah, i know but the concession is still sad to be seen.

Great, you take LTE, I'll take horsepower. We all win. U can keep your crapdragon BS to yourself. You can keep up the delusion that crapdragon is as good as exynos, or that somehow its superior because it can use LTE. The "lag" is evidence that the crapdragon can not handle the enhanced resolution where the real exynos equipped note flies like an eagle without a hiccup.
Its a slightly overclocked skyrocket with the bigger screen.. Really, there is no point to the skyrocket HD at this point.

yeah, if it even has HSPA+ 21mbps the rest of the loading speeds vs. an LTE device with Qualcomm should be compensated by how much better Exynos is at processing the data. the only way you'll come out ahead today against an Exynos powered device with HSPA+ 21mbps is if you have at least an OMAP4 w/ LTE.

LTE doesnt even matter. The difference between loading a page at 15mpbs on HSPA+ and 30mbps on LTE is so miniscule its not worth talking about. chumps get excited about "LTE" over HSPA+. The vast majority of users will never use it to its potential, which isnt on a cell phone, its on a dedicated computer line.
The only "real" difference between the 2 is that HSPA takes up a lot less battery power than LTE. Good luck with that charger. :)
Give me real horsepower over theoretical speeds any day.

it's still a better to have it kind of thing. the balance lies in phones like the Droid Razr and the Galaxy Nexus which makes a tiny step down to OMAP 4 for immensely higher data speeds. i can live with that. it's true that LTE does suck your battery though. i wonder why Samsung won't use TI for their LTE devices? they've partnered with them before when working with Google to create the Galaxy Nexus and the OMAP4 is more power efficient than the S3 so it really makes no sense. maybe it's a money thing.

i dunno. i was kinda hoping we wouldnt see any more S3's polluting samsung devices. i can live with the Ti anyways.
Well, it wont be happening for too much longer hopefully. As soon as the 4212 and the 5xxx exynos chips are released, these crapdragon infused monstrosities should be extinct.

i'm going to cry if anything with a 4212 or a 5xxx comes out on Verizon within 3-4 months. xD
somehow i doubt Mr. Quadrant Man has gotten a hold of benchmarks for that yet.

i agree with remixfa. i used to have a sgs2 epic and it ran great. absolutely perfect. ive had quite a few phones with snapdragons and they all suck compared to the galaxy line. its sad when a single core hummingbird out performs a dual core. now im on a G2X with its tegra2 out performing every snapdragon ive used. the tegra2 had the potential to be great if it was at a higher clock speed because it handles my G2X greatly. but still point is the exynos&the hummingbird are the best dual&single cores on the planet

it is very hard for me to give up my hummingbird. this single core chip is just too powerful and too versatile. And there is so much ROM development for the vibrant that I never get bored with the phone.
I really do have a sneaking suspicion that the SGS1 isnt getting the official ICS upgrade because it gives us very little reason besides Spec envy to move to the galaxy2 or 3. ICS runs so well on this phone its not funny.
Pretty sad that a 2 year old chip holds as much power and a more powerful GPU than the S3 chip thats going into new "high end" phones.. lol

LTE will matter a lot more when they start using it for calls instead of just data... that's the next step in infrastructure development. For the short term, though, I agree with you :)

@remixfa Too bad smartphones can't be like desktop PCs where the user can swap in better components to match their needs/desires... I'd love it if I'd be able to swap in a quad-core Tegra3 or an Exynos into the Note, double the RAM, upgrade the battery, do a few little tweaks to eke out as much performance as I could, while making the phone guts upgradeable in the future

yeah, I'd still have my Droid 3 if I could do that. I loved my Droid 3.

no, it’s vulnerable to some of the choppy tendencies you tend to see from QUALCOMM. POWERED. DEVICES.

hey, you are still using the old version of Quadrant. It was updated today. Know how I can tell? On the new, dual core optimized quadrant, it only compares it with 2 other devices for now. :) REDO THOSE SCORES :) :) :)

yeah, i even tipped the big wigs at PA about it. no King article today. :P
my Razr is neck at neck with the Galaxy Nexus they have on the bar graph now.

ha, I tipped em too. I wonder who tipped em first. Hey PA, who beat who to the punch with the tip email about quadrant? :) :)
I also shot them a tip about a new android program that has figured out how to skirt data by using a secondary service to shoot MMS to the phone.
Smozzy. Thats the app, get it from the market before it dissapears.
