Agreed that benchmark is pretty amazing I feel we can move away from processing power stick with quad core.. and focus on battery life in our devices now.

Where is remixfa when we need him. The S4 Pro with the Adreno 320 is a beast. The quad-core S4 Krait with the Adreno 320 beats the Samsung's Galaxy S III quad-core convincingly.

I told you Qualcomm & the "crap dragon" stigma was long gone.

The 2 best chips in the world are:

1) Qualcomm S4 Krait
2) Samsung Exynos

Me too! I read 'Mint' is gonna have something similar ..at least a dual core S4 with Adreno 320. We'll have to wait and see.

Yep - and Arc-like design and stacked Exmor. I'll be the first one in line (if there is any :P)

dude S4 quad core would run laps around exynos quad sorry but this is the new best chip my friend....just look at how good the S4 does on dual core phones.

It easily beat whatever cpu/gpu we currently have in market right now. You could find more details at

*Edit* Looks like PVR GPU on iPad 3 still tops the offscreen scoreboard. Adreno 320 is very close though (139 vs 132 fps)

It may run laps round the current Quad Core exynos series, but the Exynos 5450 (Mali T658) will be the one that will obliterate the S4 Pro, the current 4412 powered GS3 of course will stumble compared to a next generation Quad Core series from Qualcomm. I guess we'll be seeing this in the Galaxy Note 3, no way are Samsung putting this in the GS4.

Yes - unfortunately. Small volume/demand is the reason I guess.
