It is called "Smart processing chip" not cheating. It detects when heavy load is about to be active, and kicks in: like "Arms Big-Little" when gameing or photo editing, that,s when it kicks in to reach full Cpu and Gpu speeds.

That's not cheating. What's cheating is when it's proven to run on only certain benchmarks

17. Insignificant (Posts: 192; Member since: 22 Sep 2012)

It's called optimisation you clown.

It's the reason why in 2011, 2012 and even in 2013, Sony devices ran on par or even better than other devices with better hardware, especially in real life usage.

Now with on par hardware, they run better than the cheaters.

Lol they are the biggest cheaters. The Xperia Z benchmarking way higher that the Nexus 4 despite pushing way more pixels and a heavier skin says it all.

Nexus Qualcomm devices get lower scores than other Qualcomm devices because certain Qualcomm chips contain stuff which is supposed to be secret, so due to the completely open nexus, they can't use that.
Also, not all benchmarks take screen resolution into account.
Fact is, you're a useless, jealous hater. Sony optimise the best. Everyone know this.

So, i open my nexus 4 to replace the screen and i compared the build quality versus the optimus G and versus the optimus G, the build quality is horrible.

Scuse for my english, i'm speaking french :/...

Agree.

the body size between z1 compact & iphone 5 didn't have much difference, so the bezels are also not annoying at all.

It is tiny bit bigger than the iphone 5s although it has way bigger screen. 4.3 vs 3.5. So it is not bad at all. And it is better or equal to the iphone 5s which has way less pixels to push.

iphone 5/5s have 4.0 inch screens

Wayy tooo big are you sure the bezels is about the same size as my GS2 125.3 x 66.1 mm vs Z1 Compact 127 x 64.9 mm.

Let me ask you something can you tell me why S4 Active and Optimus GJ bezels is bigger than S4 and Optimus G????

The majority doesn't care about waterproofing. If you need to remove it to make it slimmer and sleeker. The remove the water proofing or offer the consumer a choice between a sleek non waterproof one and a fat ugly one that is waterproof.

Also the GS2 is ancient. Hardly the dimensions Sony should be aiming for.

You are literally crazy. Waterproofing is a usp of Sony, they even say they've been suprised by the reception. Ugly? You need to get your eyes and mind checked.

The tablet Z is the best looking and built tablet, the Z, Z1, ZU, and Z1C are the most beautiful devices of the year so far and last.

You are literally a hater. The h key is far away from the t key, only a crazy person would manage that typo.

Hey taters my favorite closed minded samsung fanboy :)

are you sure the majority doesn't care about waterproofing?? because in the past you can't find any high end and premium waterproof android phone with cutting edge specs.

From what i know Xperia Z is the first "real" sony flagship with waterproof body and and thanks to the Z series sony phone sales have increased.
Slowly but sure everyone will realize that for electronic devices especialy for something you use and carry all the time waterproofing is far more important and far more useful than the
super thin bezels.

If you think 9.5 mm is fat your hands must be very small and ugly are you talking about galaxy series???

If Z1 Compact is not a waterproof phone it's very easy for sony to make it with super thin bezels since Japan Display is able to make IPS WhiteMagic. Pixel Eyes display with 1mm bezels.
But Sony smart enough to realize that IP certification and bigger battery is waaaayyyyy.... much more useful than super thin bezels.

The reason maybe because lower clock speed and Sony not doing some benchmark cheating like samsung and lg.

25. Taters (banned) (Posts: 6474; Member since: 28 Jan 2013)

If they pulled an Apple or had an Apple fanboy run the benchmarks it would look more impressive. They would just leave out the benchmarks where LG and Samsung destroy it and just show sunspider and onscreen tests. Apple and their fans are the experts at selective benchmarking.

Anyways, this is probably just running on incomplete software. Once its optimize it should destroy the LG G2. When the G2 first came out the benchmark scores were way worse than other S800 handsets but now it is higher. LG did something to the software.

Shhhh. Don't rain on the ifans parade where they think the A7 is the best chip set in the world because the iPhone has a low resolution screen and the least intensive operating system in the universe.
