LG Optimus G Pro benchmark score is impressive (video)

We sat down with an LG Optimus G Pro, and ran some benchmarks for you. The handset sports a 1.7 GHz quad-core Snapdragon 600, clocked higher than what we have on the HTC One, but has a larger display, yet it should score at least as impressive.

In fact, as you can see below, the non-final version of the Optimus G Pro rakes in 11765 points on Quadrant.

This is close to the 12500 that the One scored, and confirms why Snapdragon 600 will be going into quite a lot flagship devices this season, perhaps including the Galaxy S IV.

Basically HTC Butterfly running the same S4 Pro has the thermal throttling issue, it's not just for Nexus 4, it's the chip. Though, it's nexus 4, if you aren't gonna modify it yourself then perhaps the device doesn't deserve you

The 600s runs hotter. Best of luck to anyone getting a phone with a snapdragon 600/800.

I am waiting for a phone with a Tegra 4i myself.

Or simply edit the thermald.conf file, why make a mountain out of a molehill.

It looks exactly like the GS3... Benchmarks are impressive nonetheless.

Except the S3 has twice the bezel.

all flagship phones this year are almost using similar specifications. It only comes to design and price point.

The Htc Ones camera sucks, the display is just average for this years phones (there basically all just using the same 1080p panels) and I hate sense. I have a fiio e17 for audio and that is 1000x better than any built in audio will ever be.

There is a typo or wrong information. 1.7 is the same clock speed as the HTC one. 1.9 is the higher clock speed.

Pathetic numbers to be fair. Please don't show me useless benchmarks like Quadrant/AnTuTu etc.,

Check Anandtech. They are really disappointing.
