Thanks
Captivate:
1GHz single core hummingbird (year old tech)
5MP rear camera (no front facing)
720p video capture
PowerVR SGX540 GPU (Corrected by Antigen)
16GB internal memory card
G2X
1GHz dual core tegra 2 (simply nothing comparable right now)
8MP rear camera
1.3MP front camera
1088p video capture
Tegra 2 Hardware Accelerator
HDMI mirroring (awesome feature)
8GB internal memory card (I have a 32GB external in mine, so I'm sitting with over 5GB of empty space on my internal memory card...so the extra 8GB of the captivate has no meaning for me, personally)
I have NO experience using the Captivate, so I can't help you with a comparison. But I can tell you that the G2X is the fastest phone with the most visually stunning graphics I've ever seen.
If you read this board, you'll read about some people that have had no problems with their g2x (I'm one of those), and others that have been plagued with problems. I dunno...for me, there's no question. I would buy this phone again if I had it to do over.

Yes, high def games seem to run smoother and appear brighter than on other phones I've seen. Your experience may differ, as this is my opinion.

Also the galaxy s captivate only has a super amoled... not a plus. Big difference.
Also big diferences with a single core vs dual core.
Also galaxy s has no reliable GPS.
The galaxy s has a blue hue also which looks horrible despite the deep blacks.
G2x has its fair share of problems too but they are just software related. I would recommend either waiting for the g2x to be officially updated and re-released or just grab the latest CM7 build....
Or wait for the Galaxy S2 to hit AT&T

Well, dude, if I were you - I'd have read some stuff about the phone before suggesting your opinions to smb.
Captivate has no GPU? LoL
Correct: All Galaxy S series (t-mo, at&t, verizon) phones have a GPU. PowerVR SGX540. Actually it's on par with G2x's Tegra 2 Geforce ULV.
You're right, I'm an idiot. The Galaxy S does have the PowerVR SGX540 gpu.
I apologize for any harm done.
I still don't believe the Captivate's gaming abilities are on par with the G2X when you consider both performance and efficiency. However, it is a top-notch gpu, and I'll retract that argument in my post.
And as far as offering my opinion before reading up on the Captivate? First, yes, I admittedly posted 1 line of incorrect information. All of the other information in my post is 100% accurate. Second, if you took time to read for yourself, you will notice that I specifically stated that I had no experience using the Captivate, so I couldn't provide a comparison between the 2 phones. I only posted spec differences as they were listed on the phone service provider's website. Why did I hurt your feelings?
I work for ATT and personal think the captivate is garbage.
We nicknamed it the Craptivate.
CPU is slow comapred to Tegra 2. Hell the hummingbird seemed slow compaired to the Snapdragon 1GHZ
Captivates camera sucks and has no flash
Touchwiz (samsungs skin) sucks
captivates GPS SUCKS
Captivate is 3G G2X is 4G
Super AMOLED has nice blacks but horrible whites.
If your looking at an ATT phone look at the Infuse 4G.
I currently have the G2x and the Infuse 4G. I like the G2x much better.
The Infuse 4G is pretty cool. And i hear the Galaxys S2 is pretty awesome.
But for the most part i dont think Samsung has put out a good phone since their Flipphones back in the late 90's early 00's
@OP
I have the G2x (or rather the Optimus 2x, same phone p-999 only it isnt T-mo branded)
A friend of mine has the Captivate and its no contest. Go with the G2x.
G2x has a better build (if you can find one without light bleed issues) and a much better feel in the hand compared to the Captivate.
Tegra 2 is a beast. I come from the Nexus One and then the Nexus S and i can assure you that the G2x blows those two pure google phones out of the water simply due to the Tegra.
Also, I have a Sensation 4G I'm playing around with to see if i should sell the G2x and right now im heavily in favour of the G2x simply because it is rooted and i've got custom kernels and ROMs on it. In fact I am only waiting this week for HTC to come clean with the bootloader before i sell it (temp-root isnt cutting it for me).
The G2x has a better screen and the Tegra is way better at processing multimedia than the Snapdragon (Google Maps app loads and processes map data 3 to 5 seconds faster on the 1GHZ Tegra than on the 1.2 GHZ Snapdragon).
Get a G2x, youre not going to regret it.
I would definitely go with the G2x. I've owned a Vibrant (which is very identical to the Captivate) and it has GPS issues which the Captivate is known for having also and the software has a great amount of lag unless you root it and install VOODOO LAG FIX. The Vibrant was a great phone once rooted minus the GPS. Just to be fair I can almost bet you money that if you post this in the Captivate forum (if you haven't already done so) that even Captivate owners would say the G2x is the better phone out of the two. We have the hardware to support just about any software android throws at us in the future. This phone is almost future proof.

I know there was a similar thread to this topic, but the thread was 9 days old and to me that's a big difference imo. So anyway, I'm stuck choosing either the samsung s2 or the htc amaze (both phones are the tmobile branded fyi) and i really like the build quality of the amaze and i heard the camera is better the s2 but i like the processor on the s2 even though the amaze has the same thing but the speed is almost similar and both of these phone way faster than my current phone (iphone 3g lol) and the screen of the s2 looks great but the amaze screen has more pixels. So right now i some advice on which phone is better, and please have some reason with your post, i dont want just a simple answer
samgung GSII is one of the best phones ever made. compare the specs list, look at some user reviews. i don't know the exact specs, so i can't say for why without a possible very large margin of error, but i do know the GSII is a better device.
These questions are always tricky, as much as you would hate to hear it, it comes down to personal preference..
Looking spec wise the processor of the Amaze is slightly faster (1.5ghz dual core vs 1.2ghz dual core) - The memory of the S2 can be exanded whereas I don't think the Amaze can be - Camera/Video quality is the same - Both have NFC support (Which is the next era of technology in my opinion) and the Amaze is being shipped with Gingerbread 2.3.4 I believe..
Sooo If you are looking spec wise and want the latest and greatest I would have to suggest the Amaze, I would prefer the S2 myself because all though it isn't quite as fast 1) I wouldn't notice the .3 ghz difference and 2) I prefer the squarer shape of the S2 as well as it being quite a lot lighter (Amaze=170grams vs S2 = 110grams).. But again that is my personal preference.. Heck I'm saving up to get a Nokia N9 over the S2, that's saying a few things about me.
Hope this has been of use,
MVP
im leaning towards the s2 and i was talking about the tmobile branded s2 not the international but thanks anyway
Why do you want the Nokia N9? Looked at the specs, doesnt look way better than the SGSII, am i missing the point?
Here are my thoughts:
-The Galaxy S II has a faster processor, running at 1.2ghz (Dual-Core). Overclockable (and stable) at 1.6ghz using a custom kernel here.
-The Galaxy S II has an AMAZING camera. VERY high quality and life-like. It's great!
-The Galaxy S II has the SAMOLD+ screen, which looks absolutely amazing. Simply put, extremely nice. When displaying the same picture on the Galaxy S II and the iPhone 4, the Galaxy S II just BLOWS the IP4(S) out of the water - not to mention it helps improve battery life.
-You should be safe if you drop the Galaxy S II: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elKxgsrJFhw
I looked at the specs of both galaxy S II and iphone 4s. Seems to me that iphone is much better. I have a captivate myself and plan to upgrade soon as well. If you have time, wait for something better to come along soon near thanksgiving or xmas break.

Actually that is exactly true. The SGS2 has numerious advantages over the DS. First is the S3 snapdragon processor or samsung exynos processor. Both processors are at 1.5ghz. Also both processors have better GPU. Next is RAM amount. The SGS2 has 1024MB of RAM. The DS only has 768mb. Next is screen quality. The SGS2 has a brilliant 4.5in Super AMOLED Plus screen. Colors are deeper and richer. The DS has a 3.7in Basic LCD screen. Colors look washed out. Next is battery life. The SGS2 has a 1,800 MAH Battery. While the DS has the 1,450 MAH. Average talk time is 7.5hrs on the SGS2 while the DS is around 4 hrs of talk time. Next is dev support. The SGS2 has huge dev support. The DS barely has 0.01% support that the SGS2 has. Next is the SGS2 has much better support from the manufacturer. The SGS2 has had 2.3.4, 2.3.5, 2.3.6, 4.0.2, and 4.0.3 all official os updates or leaked direct from samsung. The DS has seen 2.3.4 and 3 patches direct from htc. The DS is the red head step child for htc. The one and ONLY advantage the DS has over the SGS2 is the keyboard. Every other aspect it falls really short. And yes they are both "Dual core" but thats where the simulatiles end. There is also huge differences in quad scores (+2000 difference). Oh and the SGS2 has a 2.3MP front facing camera while the DS is a basic VGA. And the SGS2 also has a much better camera (They are both 8Mp) but samsungs is so much crisper and better color quality. Not to mention true zero shutter lag. So at the end of the day the OP Made a wise choice.

I'm inclined to agree. Especially with the dev support, if you can move from a doubleshot to the gs2 without spending too much, its a no brainer. That's also assuming, of course, that you won't miss the keyboard, which is a purely personal choice.
Yes. But the DoubleShot is a beaaaaast!

Lmfao. Not compared to the SGS2. Its a snail compared to it. The SGS2 is the beast. Bone stock 6500+ antutu scores vs 3000+ the DShot has. The max score ive seen a DS get is 7200 on Antutu thats maxed out OC to 1.782ghz. The SGS2 gets 6000-6500 at 1.2ghz and 8500-9500 OCed to 1.6ghz.

Exactly. I agree. Couldnt of said it any better.
Don't the SGS2 and the DS have the same exact chipset? Just the DSes is manufactured underclocked. Also benchmarks aren't everything. I'm pretty sure the DS can run anything the SGS2 can with ease.

It's an apples to oranges comparison.
The OP was letting us know he was leaving, and almost led to selling his device to me, but ended up getting it to another - that creates purpose for his posting.
The rest of this thread seems to have turned into someone trying to make themselves feel better by trying to put someone else down - don't feed the troll.

The Doubleshot uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon S2 Processor. The AT&T and Tmobile versions have the Qualcomm Snapdragon S3 Processor and Sprints version uses Samsungs Exynos Processor. The S3 processor can process tasks much faster then the S2 processor thus higher benchmark scores. Not to mention better GPU. The exynos has even better processing power and even better GPU then both S2 and S3 processors. Qualcomm just released the Snapdragon S4 processor found in the american varient of the HTC One X. It has slightly better processing and GPU then the Exynos Processor but not much. Samsungs Hummingbird and Exynos processors have always been better then there competitors. Trust me the DS is not slow by any means but the S3. S4. And Exynos processors are just better.

The Doubleshot uses an S3 processor. I'm inclined to agree that the GS2 is generally a better phone for most people. I like the Doubleshot better because the keyboard is extremely useful to me and it fits better in my pockets. Also, being able to go directly to the camera through the button has been a lifesaver at times.
I don't understand. These people like the keyboard, and its the worst keyboard on any phone that I have used... The keyboard is so bad it was easier most times to use the onscreen keyboard.
Unfortunately tmobiles best phone for now is the s2. Its sad because there are some better phones out but tmobile is always behind the times.

It's true that it isn't the best keyboard... My java based Rumor Touch had a better physical keyboard when I had it, but the DS is probably one of the most powerful android phones that have a physical keyboard and after using it for a couple months I can type on the keyboard fairly fast and it does seem to give better tactile feedback then when I first got it, it's like it just needed to get broken in. But to each there own. I was used to using an onscreen keyboard since my last 2 phones were just candybar style androids, but it's nice to have a physical keyboard.
The right feel...
IMO, it is all about how the phone feels/performs in your hand and how it meets your demands. The SG S2,for me, feels too fragile/plasticy whereas the DS feels sexy, soft and yet dorable and can go the distance. Phones are like girl friends, you don't have to have the most popular girl, just the one that feels right for you.
I know there is a couple threads on here and a few other places but they seem to get side tracked very quick battling between specific features, and most of these threads are in one of the phones sections making the people disusing usually a little bias.
Little info on me. Currently own a samsung captivate (i9000 variant), running cm9 and devil kernel thanks to the amazing dev's here. I've loved all the roms and modification that can be done to this phone.
Now I'm looking into getting a bit newer phone (but mostly likely it will be a used phone)
I really like a phone that is supported by the community here, as they are the ones who bring the latest and greatest.
Keep in mind what is important to me is screen, camera and browsing speeds. Not in that order. And don't care about storage space or gaming.
So the phones I have been looking into are:
Galaxy Nexus - i9250 (TI OMAP 4460, Dual-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A9, PowerVR SGX540)
Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE - i9210 (international?) i727 Skyrocket (AT&T) / i727R (Rogers) (Qualcomm MSM8260 Snapdragon,Dual-core 1.5 GHz Scorpion,Adreno 220)
Samsung Galaxy S2 - i9100 (international) / i777 (AT&T) (Exynos C210, Dual-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A9,Mali-400MP)
Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE HD - E120S (Qualcomm MSM8660 Snapdragon,Dual-core 1.5 GHz Scorpion,Adreno 220)
Basically the between the Nexus and the GS2 but there is so many GS2 variants. I worried if I get a variant then there is less community support for it. Does the Nexus perform better due to all of the code being optimized by google? I would like the speeds of LTE but is it much of a difference? (I plan to go to a store and use an HSPDA phone vs a LTE phone) but it would have to be a GS2 variant.
Galaxy Nexus Pros:
Screen
Supported by google (but that doesn't mean to much with xda supporting the GS2 phones)
GS2 Pros:
Camera? (Supposed to be better at low light and video)
SD Card slot (tho this isn't really a big deal to me at all)
So not taking into account chipset or CPU:
Nexus vs GS2:
Nexus better screen
GS2 better camera
Nexus vs GS2 LTE:
Nexus better screen
GS2 better camera and faster internet
Nexus vs GS2 LTE HD:
Nexus - nothing better?
GS2 - better camera, better screen/equivalent, faster internet (but also higher priced and less common)
Does the CPU manufacturer and/or chipset/GPU make a big impact in performance? I seem to be reading it does but it sounds like opinion not fact when I've read it....
I've been wondering also how the GS2 LTE HD stacks up to the GS3 dual core version, as they have similar specs. Looks like the S3 just has a little bigger screen and a bit better battery life, due to slightly newer Snapdragon CPU.
The Nexus will /always/ have better support from developers than anything else. Nexus phones are incredibly popular and draw huge crowds.
That said, the S2 is also a very popular phone with arguably the second best community support behind it next to the Nexus.
My suggestion would be to go with the Nexus phone simply because you'll get it direct from Google. It's a much more fluid experience. Samsung's custom software is quite a pain, and even if you decide to run custom software on the phone, there are always going to be some aspects (like hardware keys) that don't match Google's current specifications. I'm telling you this as a current AT&T Galaxy Note user, which has the same hardware as the S2 Skyrocket.
Hello guys,
Well i need some advice from real people. There are two models in my country: international One X and One XL. You know what the differences are. So maybe someone tested both with same kernel and os version. Which processor is better? Tegra 3 or Snapdragon clocked Krait S4?
In your opinion which one to buy and why? Or just go for One S?
P.S. There are like 1 million reviews and benchmarks and like every single one is different.
Thank you for your opinion!

S4 processor is better. The tegra 3 was rushed so they could be the first to get a quad core. It's crappy architecture. The s4 is better for everything but gaming but only by a little and it kills battery on the tegra
Sent from my One X using xda premium
Speed difference is negligible. S4 wins in a lot of benchmarks, and Tegra wins in a couple. And you would likely not see much difference in real world use. Same performance, but better battery life on the S4.
Also, at launch the Tegra version had graphical glitches, and a number of other bugs that were attributed to the Tegra chipset. Not sure if these were ever sorted out, as I don't keep up with that version. But many were doubting it would be fixed anytime soon, as NVIDIA is notorious for taking forever to address such issues.
And you might think you don't need LTE. But its not just about speed. I get fantastic data reception at my house now under LTE, where under HSPA+ it was dismal (1 bar, with frequent connection drops). At some point, you may find your self in a location(s) that has poor HSPA reception, and LTE will save the day.
Every Tegra device I've put my hands on has always seemed far too slow and glitchy for the supposedly excellent hardware and software behind it. Except the Zune HD, but everyone ignored the Tegra 1 for some reason. S4's got better battery, chances are they are basically identical in real world use. The only downside to the S4 is the lack of official support for the Tegra games, but I'm sure we'll be able to play them in time.
To be honest, we might be able to do them now if Chainfire3d works for us.
I'd buy a Qualcomm based device over a Tegra based one any day of the week for all of the reasons already mentioned.
The S4 may be "only" dual core, but it's the better chip.
sweet, another thread for this
you should of done something original, like ask one x vs. galaxy s3

there are s4 with quad core. a chinese phone maker jiayu, is making the jiayu s1 with s4 pro. that is 4 cores with gpu andreno 320! and with 2 gb ram with 32 gb memory with sd card slot and 2500 mah battery or 3000 mah battery!, with a 3.0 megapixel cam in front and 13 megapixel in the bag, and is thin!. only for 260 or more dollars!. incredible no? (gorila glass maybe, like the other older models!) and the value is near the nexus 4, but this one is better, with more battery, (the jiayu g4 with an older procesor with quadcore wins the nexus 4, this will win the samsum galaxy note 2 or more) jiayu is good with good performance battery and resistant products. and very beautiful too
