Rooted/OC'd Rezound Vs. Galaxy Nexus - HTC Rezound

I jut went to the Verizon store to show my girlfriend the Galaxy Nexus since she hates her iPhone 4G and I decided to run Antutu Benchmark on both of them. The results highly surprised me, even though my Rezound has a 600 MHz advantage

gotta love that rezound love!

Is that app, correct? Cause the nexus and galaxy a II beats out the rezound. I don't get why.
PS.... Love my phone and wouldn't trade it for one of those two.

What ROM and kernel are you running?
Let me know if you want to get rid of that iphone

Funny, my girlfriend has the same case, lol.

Never used that benchmark app- but is it skewed by the fact that the nexus is running ics or is it purely hardware? Either way- I'm not too worried bout it- This phone flies now and will even more when we get aosp ics.

It looks like you're running ziggys kernel, can i ask what governor?

Yes the app is accurate.. I've gotten close to 6,800 w/ ziggy's kernel with performance governor. But don't freak out just cause the gnex has a lower score.. Benches are for fun! My friends Gnex at stock speeds on the HD rom runs just as smooth.

The Mik Mik's Ineffibilis with Ziggy's kernel. She wants to get rid of it but A) it's the AT&T iPhone and her contract isn't done for another year...

Performance all the way, just got the extended battery so I can run it at full brightness and use the performance gov when it's awake. Why get a beast of a phone and cripple it just to conserve battery life?

haha she rants and raves about how she wants Siri and the only reason she got an iPhone was so she could go on Facebook (she's 20). I show her all the crap I can do with my Rezound and she's like wtf why can't my phone do that? I showed her the two Siri clones (Iris and Cluzee) and explained that they were free and basically any Android phone could get that and we've had text to speech and speech to text for years. What really started it was at the end of last month we were in NYC; we were stuffed way back in TGI Friday's and she was complaining that she couldn't get on Facebook, I mentioned the Samsung commercial where they make fun of the iPhone and then was like wait I can show you. I streamed the commercial at 720P and it loaded instantly, she loved that!

*bump*
updated first post

Read a few reviews running that benchmark saying its inaccurate because its not fully optimized for ICS as well

That's what I was thinking and I looked at their app in the market and it doesn't mention anything about ICS, but then again two phones running the same (major) version of ICS should give reasonable results.

Seems to me like a white Rezound, but the specs tend to be more of high end or international release... But even this has ICS ... and it might possibly be Verizon (likely)

They have a picture of the back of a phone and they know that much?
*looks at the back of my rezound* yes this definately looks like a 1.5 GHz LTE global phone with a 720 p screen
Seems to me the bullshitted the specs and used this for attention. Wouldn't believe much, it does have the incredible like battery cover so its possible for that to be the incredible HD
from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk
Not sure how the specs are better than the Rezound, when the leaks say it has a dual core 1.2ghz cpu, which could be slightly lower end vs the dual 1.5ghz the Rezound offers. Plus, it there is no word of a 720p display or what size the display is. As others have said it has ICS, yet 4.0 buttons, and it looks be running a Sense version that maybe a mix of 3.5/3.6 and 4.0 vs the other device leaks, which look a bit different to my eye.
incredible 3?

I think so... Single LED flash and 1.2Ghz processor don't seem to be enough to upgrade from the Rezound... Definitely an upgrade from Inc2 though
this does not look better than the rezound spec wise ... sorry

Incredible 3 has sense 4.0. I doubt were going to have an offical sense 3.6. Jumping to 4.0 is what HTC might do. This phone is probably the one that were going to dump sense 4.0 off of first for our Rezound. Why couldn't they make the Rezound that thin.

just curious to see what the resolution is on the supposed "inc 3"
if its not hd, and its qhd, then porting sense 4 from it is kinda pointless
If HTC pulls the "lets release the same phone 3 different times" crap that motorola does, I will be weary of purchasing HTC again
The lack of Verizon branding on the exterior seems odd, and no bloat... from what the screenshot can show...
Prototype - Possibly
Final Build -- haha
No beats branding either.....

The thing that bugs me is... No Verizon crap... no logo no apps... whose to say they didn't just add the Verizon Wallpaper/Boot ? ... Sure it be nice that they finally managed to keep CDMA/LTE radio in a thin profile .. but rumors are rumors .. we'll find out in Barcelona (maybe)

Confirmed- low ram on htc evo 4g lte

hello everyone, i am an independent amateur reviewer, and i am confirming low ram on the htc evo 4g lte, and this is confirmed due to sense 4.0 being over saturated and not optimized properly for a device with only 1 gig of ram. whoever has or is buying this device, be prepared to have stutters and the dreaded LAG....only option to help this is a custom launcher, which in theory, renders the sense 4.0 utterly useless. It's time HTC fixes this problem, start making phone calls peeps
Luthien1, the independent reviewer
Mr amatuer, could you please explain why sense 4.0 runs well on my phone and it also runs well on my EVO 3d with even less Ram, but it sucks on yours?

That's incorrect. Sense is more than just the Rosie launcher.
ram of evo 3d and evo lte are both 1 gb... there is a ram issue, trust me. with more ram is more smoothness and seemless operations, due to apps needing ram..

You sir, are dumb.
Btw what made you get the LTE after you said you wasn't? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25728556&postcount=63
LoL well, IDK why it runs perfectly fine on MY device but not on yours. IDK why ANYONE has any issues with much because I haven't had a SINGLE issue with mine at all LoL. Don't understand how installing an aftermarket launcher will render Sense useless either as posted above. Have had NO lag, haven't had any issues with launcher, lag, RAM issues or anything. Can sit safely at around 250MB free at most time and never below 200MB of free RAM. At least he admitted to being an ameteur reviewer. Couldbt agree more with Post 2.

[Q] Benchmark Scores

Hello everyone, I am trying to decide between getting an HTC EVO 4G LTE or the Samsung Galaxy S3.
I would appreciate any benchmarks mention to help me with my decision, it could also help if you mention why the EVO 4G LTE is a better option.
I would consider all benchmarks.
Dude just get out. Benchmarks mean nothing & the specs on the phones are damn near equal. No need to flaunt benchmarks at all
1st & in before the lock!
The LTEVO says hello!
I can understand your frustration but looking at his join date and post count obviously he hasn't been around here too long and we shouldn't scare him away. Anyways with the us version they benchmark pretty similar although the evo seems to have a slight edge according to some tests I've seen..phone arena got a 5500 quad..which I've never gotten close to..they perform great the evo is just built a lot better and I'm not a fan of touchwiz..but that's subjective
Yeah, they are both the exact same specs....and I agree, don't choose the phone based on which performs a tad better in benchmarks.
If you must know though:
The HTC One X scores higher than both the 4G LTE and SIII. The 4G LTE scores higher all around by a tad bit in both graphical and CPU benchmarks. Although they are very close, making the difference negligible in real life applications.
The memory on the HTC EVO 4G LTE is also a good amount faster than the SIIIs, which is said to reduce the response lag in some real life applications.
TL;DR: The EVO 4G LTE scores higher than the SIII in benchmarks...

Benchmarks r higher on s3 easily btw u shouldnt decide buying a phone on basis of benchmarks ,btw my experience with s3 was slightly better i would say s3
These r my benchmarks but by default too s3 get higher benchmarks cuz it has better gpu ,and an top notch cpu .
I would say go to a store and run both of them and decide

Tony grab the soap before the lock down. Jk now seriously don't buy the one that anyone tells you to buy. Go to the store play with both of them and pick the one you like. I got the Evo because first I hate touchwiz second the evo looks more professional and third the camera and beats audio are amazing. By the way beats by dre earbud are not that great for their price. I bought the Klipsch S4A and they are amazing. Good luck budy.

I agree with a few of these guys, go to the store and test both. Don't do or buy something based on others. I chose the evo because I've never had a Samsung phone I liked. I played around with the gsIII just to make sure I didn't want to trade my evo in for it, didn't like it too much but it is a nice phone.

Benchmarks dont mean a thing. If you are going to make your purchase based on benchmarks save yourself the headaches and just buy an iPhone.

But seriously, benchmarks dont matter

anyone here upgraded to HTC EVO 4G LTE ?

hi, I'm looking to upgrade my photon to HTC EVO 4G LTE
does anyone here own both of the phone ?
and can you give me some inputs ?
what I'm really want to know is :
-voice quality / earpiece sound quality (the photon is the very good if its not the best ear piece on a phone that i have ever owned before)
-battery life ( i use seidio extended battery on my photon, so i want o know what to expect from the non removable battery of HTC)
-radio reception strenght ? (again the Photon is one of the best in this department as well)
i want to upgrade because :
-im tired of waiting for the ICS on the photon
-and though the seideio battery is awesome , but the bulk is quite noticeable
-and the photon screen is terrible IMHO (can't hurt to change to 720p 4.7" screen NON PENTILE)
actually i also considered the Samsung galaxy SIII but i've never been a fan of samsung, and to me their build quality is not so good, and the material used is feel kind of cheap
and also i hate the touch wizzz i've always been a fan of SENSE but because the EVO 3D have bad radio reception, then i bought the Photon, which is an awesome phone.
anyway , can please somebody gimme some inputs ?
thank you so much.
Another option that might be worth considering is the rumored LG phone, it suppose to have a quad core krait with 2gb ram also with new Adreno 320 gpu and is coming to sprint. Though it also depends on how you feel about LG.
But it eats benchmarks for breakfast, it effectively destroys even tablets.

thx, but I'm leaning towards HTC because i love sense, and with other devices, i can't replicate the UI of sense which IMHO is the best UI for android device.

I have not paid much attention to sense as I generally prefer stock ICS. But they still have not ported sense to other devices yet?
anyonne else?
I upgraded from a photon and I was on the HTC EVO 4G LTE. Switched to the galaxy S 3. Photon is by far has the best reception. Battery was Ok on the Evo. U can get 2 - 2 1/2 hours screen on time with normal use which is pretty much the average. Reception sucked and the gps was horrible. Sense was good but to be honest, kinda gets old like any launcher
The s3 is by far the better of the 2 in my opinion. Screen is not as crisp but I can get 4 hours + screen on time. Multi tasking works great and gps locks in less than 2 seconds and doesn't lose lock. Yes I'm referring to a Samsung phone with good gps lol. Best gps I've ever used on a phone.
Very worthy upgrade to the photon.
And touchwiz is polished unlike before. I actually like it better than sense. But it's all personal preference.

I see alot of people commenting that the htc one is bad and that the S4 is better well wtf you doing in the One section GTFO to S4's section...nobody here wants to know nothing about that plastic sh*tty ass phone!!!
Here's my two cents, I owned the s4 for a week and thought the ui was so weird, cool phone in some areas but I guess it was too much for me I like the one's ui better it's not so overwhelming

Your giving off that same bias one-sided opinion. Both devices have their own pros and cons and satisfy different needs of users. The S4 is for those who want higher performance, removeable batteries, SUPER AMOLED Display, extra storage space as apps these days seem to be taking up more and more space, featured camera, etc, while in my perspective the One is for those who want a high performance device, with a screen that has great visibility in daylight, good sounding speakers, with a really slick design. Obviously the OS's come into play too, each one offers their own feel and look.
I'm very happy with my S4. I wouldn't trade it for anything. I really value the ability to have my 64GB SD card so i can install more than just a few of my favourite apps, i have 3 batteries so as soon as one dies i can pop in one of the backups and i'm back to a full charge instantly and ready to go. I like the development of this device, and i like to have the strongest hardware with absolutely ZERO lag.
Its great that you like your One, to each person their own, but don't be immature about it and let peoples comments get to you. I gave my reasons for my choice, and you know why you purchased your device over the S4, so it doesn't really matter what anyone else has to say about it.

Please explain this "higher performance". The S4 doesn't offer any performance improvements, as a matter of fact it has a severe hindrance compared to the One due to all of the features Samsung packed in the phone. Lag lag lag.. you can read about it in just about every tech review out there
The One performs better. Period.

On Stock I would agree with that completely, but as i mentioned theres great development for the S4, and the device can OC higher. I personally choose AOKP as my preferred ROM and theres by no means any way a One could run smoother than my S4 on my current ROM. I compare it to my friends Nexus 4 which is considered to be the smoothest device out there and is said to be 100% lag free, but my S4 is just as smooth if not smoother and opens and closes apps faster. I don't care about sacraficing Sammy's features, and i use Nandroids to switch to TW when the rare occasion comes that i want to use touchwiz. Without all the Sammy junk this device is a pure tank. I havent had the slightest microstutter in the few weeks ive ran this ROM, and that's what is most important to me. I'm not saying the One is slow, but the only way this device could get any faster would be a faster processor to open and close apps just those milliseconds faster which are already practically instantaneous.
Yes but you're insinuating that somehow the S4 performs "better". I don't see where you can make that statement, when you're comparing a non-stock ROM to stock. Have you compared the HTC One on AOSP to the S4?
I doubt there would be a "higher performance" with the S4. Bottom line is there is zero advantage in performance when comparing the same set up on both.
This is a flame bait thread. I'm putting forward a motion to have this closed.
