LG G Pro 2's early benchmark results are here: Quadrant, AnTuTu, GFXBench and more

Apart from the Samsung Galaxy S5 and the Sony Xperia Z2, another major device that we came across at MWC 2014 was the giant, 5.9-inch LG G Pro 2. We were quite enthralled with the phablet, despite it being firmly in hostile territory in terms of size. Regardless, we have some high expectations for LG's new toy, especially now that the larger form factor has established a foothold.

But for our high expectations to be met, the G Pro 2 will need to prove itself on more than one front. One particular area of paramount importance with consumers is, unsurprisingly, performance, which is why we made sure to arrange for a second date with LG's new phablet and prepared our on-site suite of benchmarking tools. Even before we reached LG's booth, we were feeling quite optimistic about the scores that we can expect from the G Pro 2, seeing as it is packing quite the hardware configuration. That time-tested quad-core Snapdragon 800 never disappointed in the past, and the whopping 3 gigs of RAM on board surely can't hurt.

And hurt it didn't. In fact, the entire process was absolutely pain-free, with the G Pro 2 showing no signs of strains whatsoever. The scores it achieved, while admirable already, should be taken with a note. It reads: this is non-final, pre-production unit, so keep that in mind. But enough talk, check the results right below.

Not bad at all. What I find hard to grasp is the storage.. 32GB to ~24GB?

Yup, almost 8 GB already taken up. It's the same for the GS5. http://www.ibtimes.com/samsung-galaxy-s5-another-rom-hog-uses-nearly-8gb-internal-storage-1557922

I am holding off buying my upgrade for now, I was not overly impressed with the s5, and having seen the z2 and waiting for the HTC TWO to be announced and possibly even this f series Samsung it's a safe bet not to buy right now, if worst comes to worst, if the samsung f series is not announced in March then I will just get one of the other handsets cheaper. Win win really. I really hope that all the rumours have been right about this new premium device, as the S5 really was a let down, in loads of areas...

Agree, I have an upgrade available from big red.... S5 didnt dazzle me like I had hoped. Its a solid upgrade for me (S3 currently) but I wanted a new phone.... S5 doesn't give me that new phone excitement

wait for moto x...it'll be decent device to have...and one that doesn't care for 4core or 8core race...but functionality and user experience!

I care less for benchmarks now...as long as device has S800 :) If I ever decide to buy 6" phablet in next few months...this will be my top choice.

lumia 1520 a great choice too, and it have a big battery, takes me 2 to 4 days before I have to charge. Again and have the s800 that you like with a nice camera
