After watching ridiculous Antutu benchmarks on the week I owned a OnePlus One (38-39K), the G3 results are awful...even my old Nexus 5 could beat these scores.
While benchmarking is not the "end all be all" standard of rating super phones, these results are puzzling to me.
Are these scores (25k - 29k) due to the thermal management controls the LG has placed on the G3?
I have rooted my devices and removed almost all bloatware; nothing remaining runs in the background.
The battery life on the device has not been as I hoped so far and I am watching my wife's AT&T HTC One M8 cream this phone in almost every way (except for the super crazy good screen resolution, lol).
Any input is appreciated!
I got 35k from my G3, but I can't figure out how to upload screenshot on mobile XDA app..
Sent from my LG-D850 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yes the scores are lower due to the thermal throttling that the g3 has on by default.
You can turn it off if you want to, but scores are dumb and you should judge the phone on its real world use which is fine for about 99% of the use you might put it through. Only some power hungry games may benefit from the higher speeds IMHO.

That is a lot of what I am reading. Agreed on the scores being less than useful in the real world...tha is for the note.

The new version looks nice but they completely butchered the functionality. The two features I use the most, favorite forums and going to my profile tab to see where I posted last, are totally missing. The old version setup was perfect in my opinion. It just needed to be optimized for better performance. I paid for the premium app so I don't wanna be stuck using the ad supported one.

This seems like a Windows 8 situation to me. People see something different and they are set in their ways and don't want to readjust to something new.
I actually like the new version. It is smoother, looks nicer and all of the functionality is still there. I don't know what the big deal is.

I had to re-subscribe to my favorite forum sections before they would show up in this list.
Now the list includes subscribed threads under the forums list.
I absolutely hate the new version. It's more difficult to read. The font or the dark schema, I don't know. I think it's more the font, but I'm also not super happy with the color schema.
But I have bad eyes. So I notice these things. And it's harder for me to read than the last one was.
I had to change it to the dark theme, the native color was to bright and hard to read for me.
