N4 has bad CPU benchmark results because of Chrome

I guess they are stupid because the nexus 4 performances so poorly, but if it was at the top of the list some people would be bragging about them.

Nope. I would still call them stupid. Because they are.

The truth hurts, but the truth is the truth. No changing that.

Even knowing what went into making Vellamo, and the fact that Qualcomm really didn't build it to favor its chips (it's the other way around, actually, Qualcomm used "standard" benchmarks to figure out where to work on their architecture), I still don't like them. They rely too heavily on software to be able to accurately compare different phones and platforms on the hardware side. All a benchmark will tell you is how well the software performs (with better, more optimized software doing better, obviously, with the caveat being what Jerry posted above).
