- Well, I wouldn't be too concerned since the Note 4 with a similar 805 and QHD screen is performing about the same. Also, you must take the screen into consideration as well. Look at the G3 scores in comparison. In other words, is the QHD worth the performance hit, assuming you would even notice this performance difference in real life. So based off what we know, I see nothing of concern.10-14-2014 10:33 PMLike 0

- I for one will admit that Im not too savvy on benchmark test or scores. From a laymans point of view it would seem that a better processor would yield better results..Why is this not the case and can anyone explain how these test do not show the true strength of a phone?10-15-2014 12:20 PMLike 0
- Same reason why car enthusiasts care that a car can do 0-60mph in 4.0 seconds instead of 4.2. It's human nature whether we agree with it or not. Some people are all about numbers while others are all about experience. And I would guess there are some that are combo of both.10-15-2014 12:56 PMLike 3
- I went from a G3 to GS5. I prefer the GS5 screen over the G3 mainly because I prefer Amoled to LCD. I wasn't blown away by the QHD on the G3. It looked slightly over sharpened and there is very little 4K content out. IMO the GS5 is snappier than my G3 was. I have deblaoted my GS5 and am running Nova launcher. I think the QHD screen definitely affected performance of the G3. But I also thought with the Turbo having the 805 in it that it wouldn't affect performance as much. Looks like it still does. It probably has no effect on day to day use though. Definitely wouldn't be a deal breaker for me if I was looking to buy the phone..10-15-2014 02:15 PMLike 0
- Can OP provide a link (yeah, I could Google it, but excuses)? We don't even know what test that is. Is it even graphically intensive? Maybe the 805 just doesn't perform as well in that test as the 801?
PS: HTC and Samsung cheat at benchmarks. Just sayin'.pchain likes this.10-15-2014 02:23 PMLike 1 - It seems like Motorola has been tweaking the Turbo as it gets closer to release. It looks pretty good.

Also I heard the Turbo may have a 64bit memory bus which would be optimized with Android L. Not sure about this, but I think it would give an edge over Note 4

IF you are a major power user then you may max out the performance but to most users the benchmarks are not going to matter that much. So basically it all boils down to how you use your phone I think I am going to be quite happy with the 805 in the Droid turbo

You take anyone with a decent amount of skill, give them the phones on the list and half an hour and they can manipulate the scores to completely flip that list upside down or put any phone in any order that they want. Benchmarks don't mean a thing and if you're on top of that then why did you make this thread? The only things benchmarks serve to do is confuse newer users into thinking that certain phones perform at a certain level which isn't even close to being accurate.10-17-2014 06:59 PMLike 0
- There is not a huge difference between the 801 and the 805, but there is a very large difference between the graphical overhead between 1080p and 1440p. Will it effect benchmarks and super heavy graphics? Absolutely. Will it effect normal use? Probably not.
These same questions raise every time there is a jump in resolution. Gpu's need a little time to exceed their predecessors running lower res displays. We probably won't see a processor/QHD completely win out over the 801/1080p until well into next year.

- Actually, you can use AutoCAD on your phone/tablet. https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...desk.autocadws Horrible to use, but you can. Now if you can use SolidWorks and the likes, then that would be amazing.

Some people actually like a visualization of phone speed just like a Corvette owner may dyno his car.
I'm degreed in both mechanical engineering and theoretical physics. I don't think I could do a 30 minute manipulation to produce falsified scores. If benchmarking was an irrelevant component, why do Geek Bench, AnTuTu, Vellamo and others have over a million downloads? I guess there are several million Android idiots because you seem to be the ultimate authority on Android etiquette. Shame on us all....

Is great that you have your degrees. Could you perform brain surgery right now? Not successfully because it's a different skillset, so your degrees are completely irrelevant to this conversation (although they seem to make you feel good about yourself which is great )
The fact is its been proven over and over and over and over and over and over and over that benchmarks are extremely easy to manipulate. Samsung was even busted for doing this very thing to make their phones look faster. Just because you can't do it with your degrees doesn't mean it can't be done. That's actually a pretty ridiculous notion to think if you can't do it then it's not possible.
The reason those sites get so many downloads is that people like to brag and people don't know any better. I mean they even got someone with a theoretical degree in physics to post their useless results.
And while i appreciate the compliment, i assure you i am not the ultimate authority on anything. But what i do know is that on Android phones, benchmarks are totally, completely and in all ways useless.
And i never said anyone was an *****. Nobody knows everything, and people don't know benchmarks are useless until someone tells them.
And thanks for bringing up the car analogy to help prove my point. Is it not possible to rig a speedometer or radar gun to show false speeds? To someone with the right skills it would be very easy to do. Same thing with benchmarks.
Posted from the Avengers: Age of Droid Ultra10-21-2014 12:13 PMLike 0 - I guess everybody forgot about the anandtech.com report that Samsung and HTC are known benchmark cheaters: AnandTech | They're (Almost) All Dirty: The State of Cheating in Android Benchmarks
The Note 3 cheated on Geekbench, so it's possible that the S5 did, too. The HTC One M7 didn't cheat on Geekbench, but perhaps they did on the M8, and they certainly cheated on other benchmarks. Motorola and the Nexus devices were the only devices that didn't cheat on anything.
I wouldn't get too concerned about benchmarks. It's also possible, as hinted earlier, that the Turbo software was still being tweaked, running debug code, etc., at the time they benchmarks were run. I'd see how they benchmark after the device is actually released.Revolutionary and bluesboss2 like this.10-21-2014 03:42 PMLike 2
