Welcome to the third part in a 5 part series of Android performance benchmarking apps. Linpack, like Benchmark Pi, is an app to measure CPU performance by having your Android phone calculate pi. It reports your performance in millions of floating point operations per second (MFLOPS). Download today for a great app to compare Android phones, compare ROMs, or just try to beat the high scores of other users.Ms!
Stay tuned for the continuation of the Android Performance Benchmark Series.

Welcome to the second part in a 5 part series of Android performance benchmarking apps. Neocore is an app to measure the OpenGL-ES 1.1, or for those confused, 3D graphics performance. You get to watch a cool video in the process! It then reports the FPS that your phone can display. Download today for a great app to compare Android phones and different ROMs!
Stay tuned for the continuation of the Android Performance Benchmark Series.

Welcome to the fourth part in a 5 part series of Android performance benchmarking apps. Fps2D, like Neocore, is an app to measure Android’s frames per second performance. However, Fps2D, as the name implies, tests 2D performance rather than the 3D performance that Neocore tests. Because of this, we are able to see the true performance of the EVO after applying the FPS fix. Download today for a great app to compare Android phones or compare ROMs.

Is there a way to take benchmark tests from Android and iOS devices that register on the same scale? Not JavaScript benchmarks, benchmarks like on like Quadrant Standard or Neocore.
I am sick of everyone thinking the upcoming dual-core devices will blow away tegra 2.
Tegra 2 vs Dual Core A5 (Ipad 2)
A lot of talk about Andntech OpenGL benchmark trumping Tegra 2, but what about Stockfish and Benchit Pi where A5 got slaughtered (PC Magazine)? With half the RAM and lower clock I don't see this thing smoking Tegra 2 in all benchmarks, or real life CPU situations.
Tegra 2 vs Exynos (Some Galaxy S2)
Lower benchmarks in Smartbench Gaming. Plus there is early benchmarks of Quadrant scores of 2100 tablets running the Exynos 4210. There is a reason why Samsung Galaxy S2 is including Tegra 2 in some regions.
Androidevolution.."One negative surprise on the S2 so far has been the level of GPU performance. So far, most of the early benchmark shows that Exynos 4210 isn’t up to par when it comes to the GPU performance. This is strange given that Samsung was leading the market when they introduced the previous generation SoC ...... Smartbench 2011 GPU numbers are once again, very disappointing"
Tegra 2 vs Dual Core-Snapdragon (HTC Pyramid)
This thing got smoked in Smartbench with gaming and productivity.
" Their tests confirm that the Pyramid indeed houses a dual-core chip, but the popular Smarbench 2011 shows a CPU and GPU that simply don’t hold up to the Tegra 2 chip found in the LG Optimus 2X and Motorola Atrix 4G"
Something to remember, Tegra may be the fastest, but........ Just like a computer in your house the slowest component is the driver or the memory storage is usually the one that slows it down or the motherboard. So having the fastest cpu makes your bench look good but in practical use it is not better performance.
If the sole purpose is to game then, yeah ok that may be a winner, but get real, using the phone for gaming is such a waste of technology
Mind you synthetic benchmarks aren't the best way to show performance, quadrant and linpack are both easy to inflate scores just by changing a single value. As for ram, it's hard to compare ram seeing that Ios and Android handles memory differently.

+1. Synthetic benchmarks are not a good indicator of real world performance.
For all those interested in developing for the Exynos 5250, to be used in the Nexus 10, Samsung have kindly launched, for a modest sum, the Arndale development board.
http://www.arndaleboard.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
It has already been benchmarked on the GL Benchmark site, Mali T-604 is powerful, but it doesn't look like it will give the A6X any headaches.

Need proper benchmark done on a final device. Definitely can't think that dev board drivers are optimized properly. It's running on 4.0.4. We should get more details once we do a benchmark on a final version of N10.

Jelly Bean didn't do much for graphics benchmarks, IRC. The low-level test won't change much, if you do a comparison with the iPad 3, you can see that Power VR SGX MP4 is a beast in terms of pixel / texture fill rate, which the A6X will improve further. The consensus is that shader power is the most important, as long as there is sufficient fill rate performance, and the Mali T-604 combined with its good bandwidth should be as capable as the A6X in real world games, the only question will developers optimise a game just 1 tablet?

I am not saying that JB will suddenly improve GPU benchmarks, but a lot of improvement can happen due to driver/firmware optimization.
Let me give you real example: Do you recall GLbenchmark Egypt offscreen scores GS2 when it came out initially? It was getting around 40-42fps initially.
[Source: http://www.anandtech.com/show/4686/samsung-galaxy-s-2-international-review-the-best-redefined/17 ]
The same GS2 after a few months was getting 60-65fps under same test.

Source 2: http://www.anandtech.com/show/5811/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-preview
It's a clear 50% improvement in performance done primarily through driver optimization.
Also, check the fill rate properly in the Arndale board test. It's much less than what is expected. ARM says that Mali-T604 clocked at 500MHz should get a fill rate of 2 GPixels/s. It's actually showing just about 60% of what it should be delivering.

Also check this slide : http://semiaccurate.com/assets/uploads/2012/03/Samsung_Exynos_5_Mali.jpg
Samsung says 2.1 GPixels/s @ GPU clocked at 533MHz. Obviously the results don't match with quoted numbers. Difference is a lot actually.
I believe the final Nexus 10 numbers will be quite different from what we see now. Let's wait for final production models.
