Hi
I have installed the new game star blitz. But i have very low fps. How about you?
Good preformance but game is very boring. Much better is GunBross.... this is the same game but space looks poor .
Well in my case game is laggy. It has not more than 15fps. Gun bros runs perfect...
Yup, it's not smooth, maybe 25fps. By the way the game is boooring.
Well anyway right now the game is not playable
try zoom to fit the screen (HC 3.2) if it's available, should boost your fps (in any games).
zoom is not aviable. Well it is bad optimilisation so we will have to wait for a patch
i dont understand how everyone always knows what their FPS are. are you guessing? or do you have an app that allows you to see your current FPS somewhere on your screen?
i know there are benchmark apps that show you your FPS in that benchmark but in specific games where people magically know they get 15 FPS, how do you see those numbers?
there is nothing to understand. Below 20 fps you can feel that the game is not smooth. I wrote 15 fps just as an example to show that the game is not smooth enough. I do not know maybe it is 16 or 18. Anyway it is not the way it should be.
I just bought a Korean variant Galaxy S4, KT's SHV-E300K(32GB). As far as I know, this is somewhat rare variant because it's an Exynos-powered S4 with LTE support.
With 2-year contract, I just picked it up without paying any money at the shop. The device costs me 899,000 Won actually and it's approximately $809.55 as of today. Monthly bill from KT will be about $72+ for 30 months, I guess. The guy gave me toilet paper rolls, lol. It's official KT promotion merchandise. Also he promised the shop will provide 3rd party cover/case and the protective film when they get those accessories in stock.
It's pity that I can't test its LTE capability at the moment. Being Saturday, I couldn't activate my new S4 right away. The KT rep said my new S4 will be activated at 10AM in the morning, next Monday. For the weekend till Monday morning, my official phone would be my old iPhone 4.
Cause this is the 1st time for me to use Android device, I'm frankly in panic now. iOS and Android(maybe Touchwiz) are too much different. I think I will have a hard time to get myself accustomed to this Android device.
The device itself is pretty nice. It's so much lighter and thinner compared to my old iPhone 4. The display is just incredible. I have seen lots of S3 and Note 2 around but this phone's screen was just beyond my expectation.
I had purchased Samsung 64GB microSD card(SDXC Pro class 10) before I bought the phone. The 1st work I did was copying iTunes music library from my MBP to the microSD card. It took about 30+ GB already. What I figured out is Apple's bundle earbuds I bought after the launch of iPhone 5 is not fully compatible with S4. Though stop/play button works, volume control button doesn't.
Antutu score was 29108 at my 1st try. Oddly, every time I repeat the test the score keeps going down. I don't know why. Because this is a Korean variant, it has DMB antenna allowing me to watch some TV channels as well as audio-only channel like radios for free.
If you have any question, feel free to ask. Though I'm a newbie to Android.
(I don't know why I can't upload images. Maybe I'm too newbie to upload images, lol. I put some images on picture board of Korean site I frequent and used the hot links.)

Is it? I never cared about benchmark scores much before I started to consider buying new phone.
congratulation dude
so the Korean version runinng @1.6 too
Korean version is 1.8 octa...
The only downside is the carrier bloat and the yamaha audio codec

I didn't know that the heat can affect the Antutu score. That was why the scores kept decreasing. Thanks you for letting me know!

Thanks for the tests.
I think that something is not right with these numbers.
Either the firmware is still not optimized, or it's throttling for some reason.
http://gfxbench.com/compare.jsp?cols=2&D1=Samsung+GT-I9500+Galaxy+S4&D2=Apple+iPhone+5
If I compare against iPhone 5, the Triangle throughput is clearly so bad.
I don't know the explanation for this. But I think there is still some room for improvement with the low-level results.

The results looks much different from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40772427&postcount=10
Maybe the phone was throttling during the test.
@procol: hi, when you do some benchs, you should close all apps and go in planemode. No WiFi, GPS and so too.
3dmark is not so high in your example. My one reaches more then your S4, but it should be atm s4>one, cuz of driver.

Can you please post the Velamo benchmark results? For both, 3D y cpu. Try to keep the phone cold between tests, if gets hot, leave it a while.
Btw, toilet paper ftw lol

I'm not sure I've done the test you spoke of exactly, but I attached the screenshot image. 2 tests from HTML 5 category wanted me to turn on wifi so I did it on. Yeah, toilet paper is really odd.

A small tip -- allow few mins between the tests to let the phone cool-off.
Maybe a reboot will also help between the tests.
Also try a BaseMark X test!

Piece of advice : hide your IMEI number in those screenshots, that's something you don't want to show to everyone.
It's out!

Good-bye Real Racing 3, maybe? We'll see
It's downloading to my Xperia Play as we speak, check this place for updates.
UPDATE: So, the game is XPO and shows in the launcher.
I have a mixed feeling about the performance though. You can pick one of the three settings : BEST VISUALS/BEST PERFORMANCE/OPTIMAL. The game defaulted to OPTIMAL but I was shocked how bad the frame rate was, so I changed to BEST PERFORMANCE but it's still not very good. But I am on stock ROM with no overclock so... They are trying to force this horrible free to play model down you throat, always bugging you to spend that precious green currency to upgrade you car and stuff like that .
As for visuals and the 'driving feel', Real Racing 3 is still the king, even without support for XP controls.
This game is not bad, but doesn't seem so addictive that I'd be investing countless hours into it like I've been with RR3.
Also, music is horrible but that's something I've got used to with Gameloft.
I'd recommend this game only if your device can play it fluently, as mine can't.
It looks so nice
Im actually playing Real Racing 3 so i'll try that alternative
It also have low framerate on ICS rom, even on perfomance settings (on stock speed, i didn't test it with overclock).
But it's XPO, touchpads also work. Not so memory-hungry as real racing 3, so it should work on heavy ics/jb roms.

Where is the settings for graphics? I'm on GB (Gin2Kittkat) and there is nothing to set, so the framerate is terrible even with OC to 1,4GHz (my XP can't get higher cause freezing). I downloaded this game yesterday, must set controls to wheel+pedals (XP controller didn't show up) otherwise there was damn auto accel. It looks funny but unplayable on Xperia Play.
Using RAM Manager Pro at Hard Gaming somehow helps with the framerates. Running debloated Gin2JB v2.5.2, stock kernel.
Frame rate is atrocious on this game when other cars are on the screen, even on best performance.
I'll try it at 2.3ghz later when I reinstall extreme kernel! It runs smooth on max settings on my jxd so it cant be massively demanding!

Indeed. When on the lead, meaning no other cars on the screen, it runs fine. Also, lags are noticeable in areas where there are many buildings.
Dang, what's the point in making it XP controls-optimized but not ancient-chip-optimized? Oh, GL...

You can choose Best perfomance or Best graphics.. just that
I set the game on Best Perfomance on Gin2KitKat (1.2Ghz OC) and its unplayable!
Most games are build to run on way slower devices than the Nexus 9 and some won't even let us enable the High graphics settings (like asphalt 8) because they don't know the N9 yet. So most games won't really feel different on the N9.
I found Google Earth to be a nice tool to feel how much faster the N9 is compared to most other phones and tablets. It really adds to the experience.
Start Google Earth, go to New York City, tilt the image so that you get a good view over the skyline of Manhattan and let it fetch the buildings. While on most tablets scrolling, zooming, tilting will be really slow and laggy (single digits or worse FPS) it will stay quiet fluid and responsive on the Nexus 9 (though not perfect, wait for the N9 2016 edition for that, way beyond any other tablet I tried).
What other apps or games do you know to really show how much faster than most devices the N9 is?
Antutu

I think the OP is talking about real world useful apps. While some people run Antutu a lot, it's not really an app which is meant to be a "real" app for anything useful in the real world at all.
I know, I was taking the piss
thnx i will try that google earth app on the nex9, just got it today and setting it up..i've had nexus 4, 5 6, 7 9 lol ...not the 10
Hi I seem to be getting very low scores in 3d mark sling shot extreme on my new s8+. I get a scores of about 2600 and it tells me it's a low score for my device.
I have game mode on and max performance in the game launcher selected. No battery saving.
Physics I get great scores it's just the graphics that are low.
I'm I doing anything wrong?
Did you ever get an answer to this?
I know benchmarks are really not a real indication of real world performance, but I am seeing the same results in Slingshot Extreme and would like to know why there is such a discrepancy with what is reported as the average score by futuremark/3dmark.
I have tried it on every possible resolution setting, across all of the gaming mode profiles, with and without the game launcher to try to find the cause for the lower score, but have been unsuccessful.
My main concern is that the performance in gaming is in fact lower across the board, but not noticeable due to it not affecting current generation games FPS.
With Black Desert Mobile coming out in a week or so, I want to make sure that I can play it without issues.
Anyone who has any insight on this feel free to chime in. I suspect it is something that was changed in an OTA update, but I don't know where to start looking.
My device model is:
Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus (AT&T) [SM-G955U]
Snapdragon 835 (MSM8998)
The expected benchmark results are:
---Sling Shot Extreme---
Average score: 3414
Physics score: 2806
Graphics score: 3646
Graphics test 1: 22 FPS
Graphics test 2: 12 FPS
Physics test part 1: 49 FPS
Physics test part 2: 29 FPS
Physics test part 3: 16 FPS
My results:
---Sling Shot Extreme---
Average score: 2549
Physics score: 2733
Graphics score: 2501
Graphics test 1: 17.5 FPS
Graphics test 2: 7.9 FPS
Physics test part 1: 48.9 FPS
Physics test part 2: 28.3 FPS
Physics test part 3: 15.3 FPS
As stated by the OP, Physics scores are fine, but Graphics scores are pretty low.
I have the S8+ Exynos and i get the same score and the app tells me that my score is below average so I'm also confused
Hi,
I think that 3d mark doesn't make a difference in score between "unlimited" and "normal". That's why the score is "bad"
Run 3dmark with the default settings for it, without the "game mode" on. The continuous performance benefits from non-game in Samsung devices(past 6.0?). GPU % is reduced much more compared to CPU. Search SIOP_ARM_MAX, limitCPUFreq, limitGPUFreq in the logcat to check if it's this. Maybe it's to increase the life expectancy of various components (the battery at least), maybe it's because people sometimes complain about the heat, maybe it's to save power.
