HTC vs Epic why??? - Epic 4G General

This might not be the right fourm but could someone please tell me why HTC phones are twice as fast than the Epic on linpack? I've tried a EVO and a Droid Incredible, both get a score of 32.500! Why?

Because JIT is optimized for Snapdragon processors, you see more performance boosts with those phones. However, mere benchmarks do not translate to real world performance whatsoever. My Epic is faster than any phone that's out there. Never go by benchmarks, lot of them are as useless as the Windows Experience Index crap. Our phones have the better hardware, when official Froyo is out and devs get the source, you'll see how powerful it really is.

Because linpack performance does not equal real life performance.... I also recall reading that linpack has not been optimized for the epic's processor. However, try 30 seconds using an evo and compare it to the epic and you'll have your actual answer

I think they are a 128 bit system versus 64 bit. But all I hear from evo user is the epic is faster

Just like cars, there's always someone faster...I think it is pure ignorance to state you alone have the fastest phone in the whole world. *shrug* For me my user experience is awesome and i know firsthand that benchmarks don't tell the whole story and can be faked. With tmpfs and a little knowhow anyone can 3000+ on quadrant.

I didn't mean to come across as arrogant. I didn't mean I alone have the fastest phone in the world at all. I meant with everything that's out in terms of OC'd kernels, Epic owners in general have faster phones than practically any other out there (currently). Benchmarks are not high, but that does not translate to real world performance which is what I was getting at.

Essentially what has been said before: Linpack has been compiled and optimized for the other processor. Someone has to write code for each specific processor in order for it to take advantage of each one's architecture. Back when Intel's Nahalem chips came out, similar results were observed (I used to build HPC clusters).

Try nenamark1. The epic smokes the evo in that test

Simple, linpack is a test checking for raw CPU power via floating points..Snapdragon has a thing called a VFP which is a Floating Point Accelerator...
Aka instead of checking raw CPU power of the CPU..your checking how fast the the VFP processes floating points lol..
To give an example, its like one person actually taking a test, while the other is copying off an answer sheet..who will be the fastest?

If you go by benchmarks that have not had their code optimized for the Snapdragon, where it is more apples to apples (it will never be completely apples to apples), the Hummingbirds generally come out on top.
Plus, if you look at gaming, the FPS on the Hummingbird is much faster. Of course, CPU and graphics benchmarks are quite different.

It has a keyboard

Thread moved to General.

I'm pretty new to android phones but I did my homework before i decided on my epic. My wife wanted the Evo for the larger MP camera and bigger screen so we ended up with one of each. Form the time i've spent on my wife's evo and the time she has spent with my Epic we both have to agree that the Epic preforms far better in realworld test. The scrolling is smother and it has a better overall experience than the evo. So forget about benchmarks... just try one head to head and you'll see which one is the better device..

I've said this before and will say it again. My rooted evo with cm6 and oced to 1.12 ghz isn't as smooth as my epic was out the box. My evo gets 1500 on quadrent while my epic gets 1100 with no jit. Now you tell me wich phone is faster?

GLBenchmark: Nexus gets it's ass kicked

Hey guys,
I've been doing these benchmarks alot on WinMo before I got my first Android device. I always felt Winmo was sluggish, but look at this:
GLBenchmark link
I compared the Nexus with a Milestone, HD2 and 3GS. And it shocked me... The HD2 is faster at most benchmarks!
Is that because of the SDK with OpenGL ES 2.0 isn't used yet?
Hoping this could be improved, because I left Winmo because of this.
I don't believe this benchmark.
Okay, you're comparing several different platforms here. The HD2 and the Nexus One have the exact same GPU.
More accurate: this particular benchmark is faster on its Windows Mobile port than on its Android port.

Generally speaking in these types of benchmarks, the benchmark is set by the highest-scoring device. 100% would be the king for that specific test.
You would be correct, Android 2.1 as it is on our phones doesn't have all of the graphics boosters. To bo honest, it isn't that surprising IMHO, since these benchmarks are hugely influenced by the software itself, otherwise ROM cooking wouldn't do anything for increasing these #'s.
Maybe you could re-run this with a Cyan ROM, which has lots of those little things added in, such as the Arm Neon graphics inhancing(or whatever the heck its exact name is).
Also, keep in mind, that there are more important factors than "benchmarks".

I agree, with this, but adding one more thing instead of just testing different phones, test these benchmarks on cyan and emnother. With the nexus our graphics performance is aided by software so hardware isnt going to be the kicker between the hd2 and the nexus.

I agree that static benchmarks aren't anything, but the Nexus should be at least able to score comparable to the HD2, right? Hardware is the same, it's just the software that differs... alot.

Good to see you here too babijoee. I'm trying to get someone on the MSM bandwagon to coordinate it, but Snapdragon is just so much more interesting... Anyways, goodtimes.
Anyways, I'm not setting up a group until i'm fairly certain the N1 CAN get better. I want to compare the N1 with the Desire and then again when OGLES 2.0 is fully implemented.
Nothing official but defiantly interesting:
http://www.androidspin.com/2010/04/21/google-getting-ready-to-dish-out-some-froyo/
I'm sure if everything mentioned here would defiantly give the n1 a substantial performance increase
Definitely worth waiting for. I'll see if I can track improvements in the graphics area of the N1 once Froyo is out.

I just ran it on my Desire. The upload failed so i dont have exact figures to prove anything, but it looks much the same as the N1 listed on their site. Most things are within 5%. My HD2 running a dutty custom ROM and Chainfires driver hack is a bit faster.
Raging Thunder 2 run extremly fast on N1, faster than moto chaser on ipod touch 2g. Anyway mobile benchmarks are always bulls**t

The CPU. That's what was lagging with the current froyo builds. The JIT compiler was optimized for QCOM chips, but not the Hummingbird processor. Looks like that's been sorted out.

the test breakdown is available in Quadrant Advanced. you can get it in the SlideME market.
and the green represent I/O which doesnt really contribute to a lot of performance... you will notice that people running OCLF will have quadrants score of 2k+ mainly due to i/o exploit
what's the linpack on it?
THIS IS EXACTLY what I have been waiting for! I have been one of the most vocal people about the Dalvik Jit Compiler not offering the Hummingbird the same performance gain that scorpions received, and it seems like Google definitely sorted this out. Totally just put new life into the Hummingbird. Google choosing the Samsung Galaxy S as being their new Nexus phone was the best thing that happened to Vibrant owners.
Thats just a little higher than my Vibrant with Voodoo Lagfix. Which means thats its either 'meh', or if its getting the result without being I/O lagfixed, then... 'WOW!'

The Nexus S doesn't use RFS, so there's no need for a lagfix in the same sense as the Galaxy S phones. However, Google did neglect to set one of the EXT4 mount options, so there is a Voodoo kernel now that shows significant improvement. They're getting around 2400 with the new kernel. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=876132
you can get the same thing on a SGS with the CM6.1beta
I played with one for a short time at Best Buy tonight. It is ridiculously fast. It loaded Angry Birds loaded and ready to play in the same time it took my phone (running Eugene's Ginger Clone 2.2 with the super I/O kernel) to bring up the loading screen. I understand the browser still has some of the same lag problems, but I didn't get to play with it long enough to see for myself.
If devs can port the 2.3 kernel to the Vibrant, then I'll stick with it because it will indeed gain what this phone can do, but If now then I think I'll get the Nexus S. The fact that Google took Samsung's hardware and made it sing like this and Samsung can't even manage a workable 2.2 yet has me seriously contemplating jumping ship. I don't think I'll sell the Vibrant though, the community and developers have been great and I want to see exactly how far they can push the phone, but it'd be nice to daily drive something you know is fully supported.

hey mannymal, I think you fail to see the point and significance of this. The total end score isn't what we are excited about, at least not me. The cpu score is what we are excited about, and you can only see the score breakdown in Quadrant Advanced or Quadrant Professional.
The dalvik jit compiler in froyo 2.2 was not giving the hummingbird the same CPU performance gain that was being achieved by the scorpion chips. Meaning that a crummy old first generation scorpion was outperforming the hummingbird in cpu tasks.
The significance of this thread and the quadrant photo, shows that Google appears to have hopefully sorted things out, and that the Hummingbird is now receiving a CPU performance gain that was being partially neglected in 2.2
I hope you realize the end score wasn't the focus, and that no matter how many lagfixes you apply, your cpu performance doesn't necessarily go up.
Is that all? Very low score! I was expecting better than this for a Nexus S ..

Phones ARE computers these days. Fast computers rock. Why do you make the comparison to a laptop and state that a "phone" is anything less. Phone is just a word to describe the original function of these micro-devices. They are 1% phone and 99% other-than-phone. Broaden your horizon(s).

These scores do have a meaning to the people who run the tests. I mean, that's like asking, "why do you race your car at the drag strip?" Easy! To see how my car ranks against others.

Not surprising when you see the real world performance of 2.1 vs 2.2 on the Epic. 2.1 was smoother, faster and all around more stable. Don't believe me? One simple test, pull down the notification bar on 2.1 and 2.2. When compared, you see that on 2.2 it is super choppy in comparison to the perfect smoothness of 2.1. I hate to say this...

Hey Zarboz you planning on getting one of these?
btw I usually would put more emphasis on touch responsiveness and UI smoothness/consistent framerate as compared to benchmark scores However benchmark scores of this phone do show that it is in a whole other class compared to any other phone out right now... but I guess it is the first of the next generation, just like the One X was
We'll have to see what the rest are like, especially the GS4
For sure sg4 will be plastic as usually, with a bunch of stuff like multi windows, s vocie and so on that i turn off, just to save battery. Really, samy does it cheaper... Also twz is ugly and boring.

Use phone x, y and z and observe the performance.
My experiences in Quadrant... Transform SDXed out: 500+, Evo Shift OCd 1500ish, EVO3d OCd 3900
Each phone was that much faster for games and real world use, mostly.
The outlier was the Transform, butter smooth on the UI. Better than the EVO3d on the homescreen stock. But totally crap for most anything games.
Yeah... I'm about to jump ship and come back to HTC.

Put it like this. Car A can travel at a maximum speed of 100km/h while car B can travel 150km/h
the numbers are the benchmarks. Car B is faster so car A wins.
The reason why they say benchmarks are useless because let's put Car B to real life use.
Car B has 150km/h speed but would you use it in driving the streets? If yes then good luck on the speed limit cameras.

Well... yes... but there can sometimes be an indirect effect on things like battery life. If a chipset is capable of doing more processing for the same amount of power, that likely means it can do the same amount of processing with less power, which means the battery will last longer.
Also, once apps start to become more demanding in the future - more complex 3D games that come out in a year or so - the phones that are faster in the benchmarks now will be able to play newer games for longer before hitting frame-rates that are too low to be enjoyable.
Think of it as car B having a more powerful engine, which lets it go up steeper hills while carrying the same load.

Funny
So to summarise:
HTC One Ice Storm: 11309
S4 Storm: 9552
HTC One Ice Storm: 6190
S4 Storm Extreme: 6127
A small victory, but seems to be a lot of leeway between these results, just ran this on my own One and got 10029 and 6626 results respectively, so alot lower then alot higher.
whatever it is this means the 554MP3 is not running at 533mhz due to power / thermals
please also means its not what is hyped to be and Adreno 320 is not to be taken lightly
Would love to see the test run again once the One is updated to 4.2.2 - these results have nowhere to go but up.

Agreed, I'm sure it will get a nice performance bump from that.
I´m so looking forward to the 4.2.2 update. Not cause of the Android Version, but the drivers. Its fast at the moment, but it should be even faster with them.

I expect the benchmarks to improve with 4.2 by a decent amount, maybe we'll see around 41 fps Egypt offscreen.
As usual, 3DMarks of any kind cannot be a standard test of anything of value.
I've got these scores from my Nexus 4 running stock 4.2.2. (Left is default and right is extreme)
Benchmarks like this are totally pointless for measuring performance. They might be fun, but they are so variable (even on the same device) that they are useless. They also have biases towards certain GPUs that do no reflect real world gaming.
All this test proves is that with current software 3Dmark for android runs better on the Adreno in the One than on the PowerVR in the S4, nothing else whatsoever. Since its not a game, who cares?
3DMark is really wierd. I ran it yestarday several times and the score varied from 9900 to 10800. The highest score I got was just after the restart of the device. 10800 in IceStorm and 6690 in Extreme. Still... it looks like the "The One" is on par with SIV when it comes to performance. Now its up HTC to make the software better. I mean its still far better than Samsung when it comes to bug count and stability but the camera, Zoe, Blinkfeed functionality should be extended. Come on HTC. You can do it...

Were exactly did you get an S4 octa and an HTC one to perform these test. These are the two rarest phones on the planet especially the S4 octa. Won't consider this final since the S4 octa is still in production. <<<<<you can Google that

we see both of devices arent ready to give noteworthy full hd game performance with these gpu..i think we will have to wait better gpu.

Ummm.... Not a surprise at all. A lot of people have the ONE....just go look at the Development section.
As for the S4 Exynos Octa....wouldn't shock me at all that someone has it in their hands.

Dude we have seen phone performance decrease after SW updates.
Stop making it look as if it is guaranteed

It scores higher because the screen resolution is lower and 3DMark renders onscreen.
It's still an awesome phone though.
