There is nothing special about a verizon phone you have the exact same hardware everybody else does. if you were below I think it's 25% power power two of the cores are off. also, if you just got it everything is still being cached and updated. charge it and try again tomorrow.
Still not happy? unlock it. Unencrypt it. load the Lean or the Franco kernel and put it in performance mode.
My advice and go enjoy your phone for a while and not worry about benchmarks. Usability is more important. at least to me.
