So I visited www.phonearena.com yesterday and saw the news about the HTC Pyramid.At first I thought wow,Qualcomm and HTC won't only get left behind but will have about the same technology and will run at higher frequencies.
But then I remembered something that troubled me.I remember reading somewhere that Qualcomm's dual-core CPUs will be based on the current-gen Cortex-A8 by ARM,while others,like Samsung's Orion,will be using the next-gen Cortex-A9 that is superior in both perfrormance and consumption,while being designed especially for dual-core CPUs,unlike the A8.
What's your take on this guys?
No one?

Strongly agree
i hope this isn't true. tegra 2 outperformed old cpu's with only one core running! that's because it's Cortex-A9. now, if it was Cortex-A8, i don't think there would be much of a difference.
In fact i think it is superior to the tegra 2 or Orion plat form despite being an cortex A8 architecture, but it is not a long term solution point proven as Qualcomm is developing it A9 counterpart the MSM 89xx
How it is superior? Well between A8 and A9 architecture to my knowledge there isn't much of a difference, the major one is enhanced soc and the capability to use DDR3 ram instead of being limited to ddr2
But how these two doesn't matter in the short term, well the first one is obvious because Qualcomm doesn't use just a Normal Cortex A8 architecture ( was used on the first gen of snapdragon) as the second generation MSM8255 used on the desire HD for exemple has an enhanced soc and cach point proven when compared to a lets say Omap 3 or hummingbird in every cpu benchmark i believe the MSM comes on top(correct me if i m wrong).
The second point which is about Ram, i don't believe we will be seeing DDR3 ram on smartphone anytime soon so at this it is a kinda useless advantage.
Now add to that if the rumors are correct that one cpu can be switched off if the charge is low then while the on tegra 2 which use a dual core architecture and not a dual cpu architecture.
Edit: this is true + Asynchronis clocking for each core!
Also in terms of graphics, the MSM8x60 comes with adreno 220 which is definitly faster than the adreno 205 almost as fast as the SGX540 and which is rumored to be faster than the GPU in tegra 2, the geforce, as for the Orion is believed to get the SGX543mp2 but Orion is not coming anytime soon, and probably will hit the market once tegra3 and MSM89XX is almost there (which comes with Adreno 300)
Hopefully this does help you, i know that not everything i mentioned is accurate, but i ll invite you to watch this

I do agree with you, but they do give a scal for the performance especially when there are different types that relies on a different system to test the perfomance.
In real world you have to agree that MSM8255 is the fastest CPU out there atm just look at how the Desire HD is a screamer! or even the G2/Desire Z with the same CPU but clocked 800mhz does a pretty great job even compared to the latest omap3/hummingbird phones.
Definitely, the MSM8255 45nm matches the old MSM8250 65nm even when the stock clock in the Z/G2 is only 800 mhz, versus that extra 200 mhz. The gpu is lacking compared to others.

As lotis said the only GPU that is faster than the Adreno 205 is the SGX540 and by a very slight marging in 3D while the Adreno wins in terms of 2D. The thing with Adreno GPUs is that they are clocked with the CPU and i believe the comparaisons were done with a G2 vs SGS + lagfix and froyo , i believe the GPU on the Desire HD does have a higher clock than the one on the G2 and thus perform better but again is this a fact or just another rumor if someone could confirm this..
But for a fact we all know that a stock G2 on pure android does 1600-1800 Quadrant score and a pure desire HD does a 1900-2100 on Android + sense out of the box

i m looking forward to the pyramid hopefully HTC will show it on the MWC (but im afraid there is a chance that they won't because they've just released the desire HD counter part in the US aka thunderbolt and inspire 4G) or else i might be tempted by the Motorola Atrix
whats up with all the fear and worries ? quandrant for tegra2 is a mere 1911 . it will get its a** kicked by anthing qcom makes in 2011 .
that said , there is a low possibility quandrant only runs single core enabled on quadrant , but what makes u sure that other apps will run dual core then ?

Nothing!That's the thing!
At the moment there is no software that takes advantage of both cores.I think that Gingerbread also has problems.So we have yet to see the performance gains by dual-cores.

I didn't think it was possible for an A8 to be dual core
The dual core cortex a8 qualcomm is building is a heavily customized version. It has features from a9 built into the cpu.

My laptop already is for surfing the net only because I prefer the large keyboard(it's a 17 incher after all ).Everything else I do with my smartphone,which has a 25% share of my gaming time.I also have a ps3!
Now,quad-core CPUs will first be for tablets(August 2011) and then for smartphones(Fall 2011?Maybe).These will pack some things like 12-core GPUs etc.Tests have already shown that they beat many dual-core x86 CPUs.What's next?Dunno,but I surely wanna see!
The next computers is possible, but relatively weak computers per say. But can any of our phones run crysis or crysis 2? Are they even remotely capable of generating over 10fps of it? Even the MALI 400MP, Tegra 2, adreno 220 or power vr SGX543 can't manage that. I don't think we'll be seeing any SoC's with that sort of power until maybe two years?
Point being, phones will never hold the same amount of power a computer can output. So computers will stay. Who's to say computer SoC's haven't been improving? sandybridge, quantum processing, six cores core i9, 48 cores? No one cares for computer news anymore?
Anyways onto the topic, looking at the new gpu benchmarks posted of the dual core snapdragon, 1.5ghz. They're making the other cpu's look bad. So maybe the SoC isn't that bad after all. looks like it was a prototype also so the finished product could be even better. Source:

Thanks. Let me know how it goes, and post your score if you have time.
just downloaded and tried. how long does it take to finish running? I hit run and it seemed like it didn't do anything. there's no progress bar ..and I just stared at the screen for about 30 secs and just closed it. I'm running a nexus 7.

It can take several minutes. Sorry for not specifying earlier.
The reason is that it is testing many different versions of the code, and reports the best performance for your device.
Removed post, no longer valid for new version.
Hi everyone. Thanks for testing. I have now developed a much improved version. Will post new version soon. Do not test this version any more. Thanks for the help!

It does take many minutes to generate the result. On your phone, I would say wait for 5-10 minutes for the score.
Anyway, the version 1.1 should no longer be tested. Will be posting new version soon.
New version
Hi Everyone. I have posted v1.2 now. See attachment in parent post. This should give you much higher performance, almost 2x performance in some cases.
As a reminder, the benchmark runs for a LONG time. It may take 5-10 minutes to give a result on some phones. Please be patient
Some sample results collected from around the web for v1.2
1. Nexus 7 : 1470 MFlops
2. Galaxy S2 (international, Exynos 4410): 890 MFlops
3. Galaxy S2X (T-mobile, Snapdragon S3): 1049 MFlops
4. Transformer TF201 (Tegra 3, 1.3GHz): 1881 MFlops
5. Galaxy S3 (international Exynos 4 Quad): 2189 Mflops
Uploaded a new version (1.2.1) which is basically the same as 1.2, except that I have added a progress indicator.
Please do try it out and give me some feedback. Much appreciated. Thanks
Play Store version is tagged as v1.3.1 and has a small code change from versions I posted earlier. TO avoid confusion, I have removed all APKs frm this thread. Please use the Play store version. Thanks
Some results reported by users:
Nexus 7 (Tegra 3): 1488 MFlops
Galaxy S2X (Snapdragon S3 dual-core): 1175 MFlops
Galaxy S2 (Exynos 4 dual-core) : 998 MFlops
Acer A100 (Tegra 2): 714 MFlops
Tested v1.3.1 on Xperia sola.
Xperia sola(NovaThor U8500,1GHz dual core):651.0 MFlops , 669.0 MFlops

It looks great and I want to check it out in my device but there is a problem, Google Play Store won't let me install it saying that it is incompatible, did I forget something?
My phone is LG P350 (Optimus Me) with CyanogenMod 7.2 (Android 2.3.7, obvious). I'd like to check out how well does my device do in this benchmark.

To clarify things, actually a Cortex A9 core can theoretically do 1 double-precision flop every cycle. So if you have a dual-core Cortex A9 1 GHz for example, theoretically the peak is actually 2 GFlops or 2000 MFlops. My benchmark is trying to give you a simple estimate of how close to that peak can you get in practical code. Even my benchmark is not 100% optimized and there is still scope for optimization.
The benchmark is far more accurate than Linpack. "Linpack for Android" is actually not a very optimized benchmark. For example, Linpack is written in Java while mine is written in C++ to get native performance. Also, mine is written to make better use of the cache so that the FPU is better utilized instead of just waiting for memory loads. I wrote the benchmark partl because I was very frustrated by the wrong information that Linpack for Android gives, your phones are all a lot faster than what Linpack reports
For example, there was a research paper recently where researchers show that it is possible to get more than 1000 MFlops on Linpack on an iPad 2 if a properly optimized Linpack is written for the iPad. Given that an iPad 2 has like a 1 GHz dual-core Cortex A9, you can see that the Linpack on Android is nowhere close to optimized.

Hi unfortunately, it only works on phones with processors having ARMv7-A or newer, does not run on your phone. I encountered some bugs while compiling for older processors so had to drop support.
Hello all!
Long time reader, first time poster! I had a quick question... regarding the new 1.5 dual-core processors in the new phones (SIII, RAZR HD, etc., or even the HTC Rezound) vs. the quad-core processors soon to release on the newer phones in the coming months. How much faster is the quad-core vs. the dual-core? Please don't respond with "twice as fast," I get that I was wondering if there would really be any noticeable difference in the speed capabilities of the phone, even when worked to it's limit.
For instance, 1 degree vs. 2 degrees temperature - it's "twice as hot," but you're not going to notice it at all. But 40 degress vs. 80 degrees - "it's twice as hot" has a whole new meaning!
I am wanting to get a new RAZR MAXX HD, but was debating holding off for the LG Nexus or another quad-core phone that's on the horizon... Thanks in advance for all your help!
In Europe SIII has a quadcore too
Gesendet von meinem GT-I9300 mit Tapatalk 2
Personally I don't think it's noticeable at all. Maybe when browsing web, rendering goes faster in multi-core optimised browsers. And of course some games would run better. But I can't imagine any other use, unless you want to run SuperPI in the terminal there. It'll probably run nearly twice faster.
Edit: From the other point. There will be more and more optimisations in Android for multi-core SoCs, so quad-core will for sure "last longer".
Rebellos, thanks for the help! Not to open a whole can of worms, but what do you mean "run SuperPI"? Is this an app that I should be familiarizing myself with? (Fairly new to the ROMs, rooting, bootloaders side of things)
When I got my captivate, I had the option of waiting a month to get the atrix which had a dual core processor. I choose to go for the sure-fire "I Know it'll have dev support" single core processor and don't regret it.
This time however, there are like 3 quad core devices coming out. One x+ has a tegra 3, the Note 2 has an exynos. The Optimus G has an S4.
While dev support is still important.. the S4 is an incredibly compelling factor for me personally.

SuperPi is nothing more than a benchmark you really don't need to concern yourself with.
Remember when you are talking about cores, it is not simply the number of cores that you need to take into consideration but also the architecture which those new cores are built on. The new A15 Krait chips are dual core, but will blow the door off a quad core CPU with an older architecture. MHZ and Cores are relative. If they put out a modern super phone with a dual core processor you can bet those are two beefy and very fast cores.
There is the valid point that Android is going to continue to specialize in multithread execution but 1 core does not necessarily translate into 1 thread. A hyper-threaded cpu core actually shows up as 2 physical cores to the computer it serves, so if you are running a dual core that is hyper-threaded the PC thinks there is a quad core on board. It also depends on what type of application you are running as to whether a very solid 1 thread computational approach would be superior to a multi-threaded approach.
In short there is not set answer. There are hypothetical road maps defining architecture but these days innovation is so common said road maps could made an abrupt 180 if circumstances change. When if is time to buy a phone, or any computational device, consider what it's primary task is. That could help you decide whehter a multi or single threaded approach could be more effective. Ultimately as mentioned earlier everything is going the way of the multi-core, multi-thread, meaning instead of having 1 processor/thread complete 1 job, muliple processor/threads complete several mini jobs to arrive at the same point. Usually a multi threaded approach is more effective if designed correctly. Then look at what is available, where is your bang for the buck. Ultimately the number of cores and frequency run at has little to do with processing prowess. It's about design, innovation and engineering. Sorry if this didn't help much. It was more designed to give you something to thing about as apposed to pat, here you are, here's your answer as I rarely believe there is 1 approach or 1 answer to a solution. That's what computing is and computers = phones = innovation.
For gaming it makes a difference. For everything else, not really. Comparing the HTC One X vs the One XL (Tegra 3 Quad vs Snapdragon S4 Dual, respectively), the One XL benchmarks as faster than the One X CPU-wise (calculations), but the One X is more powerful graphically because the GeForce GPU inside the Tegra 3 chipset is more powerful than the Adreno 225 inside the Snapdragon S4. I have the Galaxy S3 i9300 while my girlfriend has the AT&T Snapdragon S4 Dual (LTE + 2GB RAM) version. Mine is clearly faster when it comes to heavy gaming, noticeably. Hers jerks on certain games like Beach Buggy Blitz, even on middle-level resolution, while mine runs completely smoothly on the highest resolution.
The only real comparison would be Snapdragon S4 Dual vs Snapdragon S4 Quad, or Exynos Dual vs Exynos Quad. The Galaxy S2 was as smooth as the S3, from personal experience (Sprint, Exynos version vs GS3 International Exynos version). Gaming was also super fast. But the Exynos quad is definitely more powerful.
TL;DR: It depends heavily on the chipsets being compared.
I have a T-Mobile Galaxy S2 running AOKP JB. In my opinion AOKP JB is A LOT faster than CM10. My phone is really fast now. Dual-core is still good.

True, but that's a completely different architecture. Exynos 4412 (the one in the i9300) is based on Cortex A9, whereas the Exynos 5520 is Cortex A15. It's like saying quad-core Pentium 3 vs dual-core Pentium 4. The Pentium 4 is a more advanced architecture, so it would win. It's like comparing apples to oranges.
Yes the 4412 is just double Dualcore

But Samsung has just doubled the cores and not founded a new processor

For heavy games it makes difference.
In my opinion, a A15 based dual core may be a better as an overall proposition compared to a quad core A9. The A15 should have approximately 20%-40%+ better single threaded performance. Most of the time you are working in a single threaded mode.
In fact you only need quad core when using a very high multi-threaded load. Not very common on a phone.
If however the choice is between a dual core A15 vs a quad core A15, the choice becomes very straightforward. Get the quad-core in that case.
Dual Core A15 vs Quad Core A9 (of the same type of chipset, like Exynos 4412 Quad in the S3 vs Exynos 5520 in the Nexus 10/Samsung Chromebook), Dual wins. It's more efficient and just overall more powerful. The first A15 chipset are the Snapdragon S4 Pro (Quad only) and the Exynos 5250. It's speculated though that the Galaxy S4 will have an Exynos 5 Quad.

Actually its Exynos 5250 not 5520 and s4 pro is not based on A15 architecture its quite similar but A15(dual core) gives better performance than s4 pro(quad core) in single threaded operations ,but in multi threaded operations s4 pro is better,but with same number of cores on both ,A15(quad core) would be better than s4 pro(quad core) in both multi threaded and single threaded operations.

hey guys im new here...
i just got my new phone zenfone go 5.5"
and downloaded ALOT of games and they all run lag free
so i decided to install gta sa on my phone that I saved on my pc
2 years ago and it installed perfectly....
when i open gta sa i was so excited but when i got in to the game it lags alot
even though my phone is powerful and my gpu is adreno 305
help me fix this
pls notice me....
Sorry to say this, but GTA SA is completely unplayable on your device. You have a device with a Snapdragon 400 CPU which is very low end by today's standards, your phone is definitely not powerful. You'll need a device with at least a Snapdragon 600 series CPU for a smoother experience.
Of all phones, why did you pick the Zenfone Go? For the same price or cheaper you can get a Xiaomi Redmi 3 Note Pro which has a Snapdragon 650.
Try lowering the graphical settings a bit. If it's even possible.
i lowered the settings as possible and its horrible but it gives me more fps thanks btw

Maybe there's a problem with the game or how he handles his phone.(maybe he has a lot of apppp installed which consumes huge ram)

Scroll down and see game performance benchmarks. If those games don't run that well, then GTA SA will run even worse.
Mali-300 is superior to the Adreno 305 too.

try gta sa older versions.
New versions will lag like hell.
i installed gta sa on my samsung galaxy v plus and it works perfectly i dont know why weaker phones can run this game

Sorry to say this, but GTA SA is completely unplayable on your device. You have a device with a Snapdragon 400 CPU which is very low end by today's standards, your phone is definitely not powerful. You'll need a device with at least a Snapdragon 600 series CPU for a smoother experience.
Of all phones, why did you pick the Zenfone Go? For the same price or cheaper you can get a Xiaomi Redmi 3 Note Pro which has a Snapdragon 650.

well it is surprising that it runs very smooth even on high graphics on my nokia 3 (which is cheaper than redmi notes 3 btw) but it terribly lags on my redmi 4a which has a better processor with higher clock speeds
i think the issue is that gta san andreas isnt optimised for snapdragon SoCs and only for meditek
As we know Snapdragon 675 has 2x Higher performance kryo 460 cores which are featured in Snapdragon 855,which are very powerful.
Fortnite can be easily playable with that specifications atleast by theory.
Is there any port that helps Fortnite to run on Redmi Note 7 Pro

its now compatible
Just update to miui 10.2.10
Yup I know but for some reason it's not functioning good in my rn7pro.
Everytime I start a match it starts the match and instantly it send me to the lobby ? which is very unfortunate. So I will try to reinstall it maybe some issues with the file.
Yep,it works perfectly on my Redmi Note 7 Pro, the 3D resolution is set at 75% and there is no sort of lagging or stuttering...
I'm currently running MIUI 10.8.2.0 ( Stable)(Global)
and I think the performance would improve with the MIUI 10.2.10 update...which is being rolled out slowly.
