Does anyone have any idea when this majestic phone will be graced with Ice Cream Sandwich?
somewhere between April and never depending on who you ask
It will happen. And it will still be touch wiz based. As for when, nobody knows for sure.
I'm just waiting on a solid CM9 port

AOSP"-ish" would be very nice indeed.
Samsung is notorious for taking forever to release promised updates. Just ask us captivate owners. my guess is it will get leaked a month before release and we will have custom roms weeks before the official release. When that will be? I have no idea!
You'll have Rogers ports and even ports off the international version prior to an AT&T ICS ROM. So there will be plenty of Ice Cream to go around.
More than ICS support, I'd be more hopeful for a nice Jellybean leak somtime this summer.
A port from the international version is most likely never going to happen. This is due to the fact that the internals are completely different. If anything a port from the Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket is more plausible due to the VERY similar hardware. Just a heads up.

Not Samsungs fault, they released Froyo to i9000 in October 2010, Captivate got it in Feb 2011, i9000 got Gingerbread in April 2011, Captivate didn't get it until January 2012! Who do we think is delaying the updates here, Samsung, or ATT?

Although I doubt the skyrocket will be getting ics a whole hell of a lot faster than the note. It will be helpful in the beginning ROM-wise

Based on the general track-record of at&t releasing android updates, it's not too far-fetch to say that they'll maybe release their ICS by the end of this year?
I would like to see them change that trend to show that they actually do care about their customers somewhat.
Basically, we'll most likely be better off waiting for a custom ICS to come...regardless if it's 1 specifically for the Note...or based off another phones version (like some of you said above).
Just throwing this out there say we get the ics update and we don't like it is there a way to take it off?

what good are benchmarks anyway right? õ_Ô
benchmarks mean absolutely nothing; i can't stand reviewers who use them to judge and rate the phones.
Sense lowers the score alot too for some reason. My desire gets a 1600-1700 on CM7 but gets a 1400 on Sense at the same clocks speed and voltage.

This....
HTC did something with Sense that interferes and harms benches, I am not sure on the specifics, but I do in fact know it affects all Sense based phones. Maybe the ROM has some debugging in it or maybe Sense is just not optimized, which ever it may be it's not a good feature to have. If this phone(or any Sense based) had TouchWiz or Vanilla on it, it would be much faster in benches or just generally.
Yea. Its just sense... Its a heavy UI. On a more vanilla rom I can almost guarantee that it will bench higher than Samsungs. HTCs always do

Not to mention it looks like you don't have a very good SD card? Class 4?
Class 4 comes with the phone right? He probably hasn't swapped it. Ill stick my class10 in there next week and Ill see how high it gets.
Also, the score will be improved when we can use setcpu to lock it in performance governor mode.
Yea, Class 4 is what comes with pretty much every phone Verizon sells. I haven't seen anything better, but I may be wrong so don't quote me, lol.
The fact that Sense slows down benchmarks doesn't imply the benchmarks are invalid. If they run slowly under Sense, then apps that users typically install may also -- and that's definitely something worthwhile to discover.

If you look closely the Rezound has faster CPU and RAM. The SD card is killing the scores.
All this is true... That's a dam good benchmark IMO with the phone stock and bloated lol.

It's interesting to see that the benchmark proves some hardware points. the GPU on the Rezound is superior (as it is on paper), but the cpu suffers since it is still based mostly on older cortex architecture. once the rezound sees an ICS upgrade, it will prove a formiddable opponent, especially since ICS actually takes advantage of said GPU and dual core CPU's.

Tbh even if it is on an older artchitecture it's a possibility this could be a refresh. Even if it is "older" I find that qualcomm cpus always keep up w/ the newer high end processors. Any performance issues has nothing to do with hardware, and this has been an ongoing issue with Android. No true hardware acceleration (ICS will change that hopefully) and heavy manufacterer skins. I'm sure AOSP or a stripped down version of sense and any lag this phone will be gone. ALthough I really haven't experienced any true lag, just UI slowdowns that have been mostly rectified w/ a 3rd party launcher.
the rezound uses a processor from qualcomm's S3 family, which are all based on cortex a8. the nexus/razr cpu's are based on cortex a9 architecture. the rezound will always be behind in that regard. htc knows of this limitation, which is why they've maxed out the rezound's cpu to 1.5GHz, to keep up with the more efficient competition. although, i have heard that the rezound's s3 is a hybrid of a8/a9, so who knows for sure.
where the rezound has potential is in its adreno 220 gpu, which is superior to the nexus/razr's power vr sgx 540. the sgx 540 has been around for far too long and should have been refreshed by now. it's even in my galaxy s phone.

Yeah it is from the s3 family eventhough they should of released the kraits by now .

Samsung announced that they have switched to high-k materials and metal gates (HKMG) and further claimed it can provide superior performance with less power than conventional poly-Si/SiON used at 45nm. Samsung demonstrated that Exynos 4212 (32nm version) SoC can produce 35% to 50% more horsepower than the older Exynos 4210 (45nm version). So clearly Exynos 4412 quad core wins the “CPU Horsepower” battle.

While they haven’t officially announced this yet, I believe the GPU is the same one they promised for the dual core 1.5 Ghz Exynos 4212 chip. They said that GPU had a 50% increase in performance over the current one in the Galaxy S2. This improvement is most likely possible because of the jump from 45nm for the dual core Exynos to the 32nm Exynos 4412 (they used the more efficient transistors to increase performance at the same or lower power consumption).

The thing is that if you are hardly able to run the game on a Mali-400MP then the game would lag like hell even on T2/T3.

Also I wouldn't say it hardly runs, minimum of 20FPS, lots of optimizations to be done though such as LOD (basically chops poly count down on far away models).
For lower devices...
Dynamic lighting turned off.
Light maps could be baked into the texture
Normal maps removed.
Specular maps removed.
At the moment it's probably the same or exceeds the quality of Shadowgun THD.

People at the HTC sensation forum extracted Adreno 225 Drivers and used it on their Adreno 220 powered phones and they gained a huge performance boost!
as we know Adreno 225 is Adreno 220 with double the frequency (thanks to that new manufacturing process of the CPU also the GPU still using the same process...)
so can't someone extract the new drivers so everyone with Mali 400 GPU can use it?

So are they saying it is going to have 2 dual core cpu's =ing a quad core or is it just a dual core? I am not the brightest person so maybe one of you can set me straight. Because I would rather just not spend the money until a quad core comes out. I will be happy with my SGS2 runing AOKP for now.
the international version will have (1) quad core exynos chip - the us variants have (1) dual core 1.5 chip.
basically
the international version has a quad core processor, all U.S variants have a dual core processor.
This is the only hardware difference between models, as well as the U.S variants having 2GB of ram and the international version having 1GB of ram.

The quadcore doesn't "cause problems" but the SoC does not have an LTE modem in it. LTE would require a separate modem/chip.
On the dualcore Qualcomm SoCs, the LTE modem is physically a part of the chip.
This is a quick poll to get input on every ones feeling since hearing about Samsung unveiling the Exynos 5 OctaCore Processor at CES. Input your feelings and participate in the poll as to your next move since getting the news.
This thing surely won't fit in a tablet anyway without active cooling, so I don't think N10 owners should be worried.
Edit: I've read an article about it and I see it'll be eight-core because of having a big.little architecture, so it actually sounds pretty cool that way .
Yes (4) A15's for Intense usage and (4) maybe A7's for lightweight task. 28nm in size!
Tech marches on. We wont start seeing this for a while in tablets, and even when we do, so what? We still have one of the fastest CPUs on the market today, and it'll still be quite good by the time the octo-core variants arrive. Cores mean nothing without software to use them, and right now the majority of phones out are dual-core. So its not a big advantage.
I'd still consider this a quad core CPU.

It would be definitely better than exynos 5250 specially at the Gpu part 4x compute performance of Mali 604 (Gpu of n10) and 10x graphics performance of Mali 400 overall I expect it to perform at least 2x of Mali t 604 and surpass iPad4
:victory:
Also with 70% more battery savings than nexus 10
And in the cpu part a quad core A15 what could you want more
At least this looks good on paper

Because it is. Its effectively two CPUs that can be switched dynamically. It might have really good battery life, but performance wise I doubt it'll be significantly better than the one in the N10.
Edit: What's with the N10 hate in the poll options?

Sorry didn't realize that I didn't add a "My Nexus is the Best Option". I love my Nexus 10 a lot and I added the only good option as "XDA will iron out its faults" simply because although our tablet is the best Android tablet out there at the moment IMO due to the throttling of our processor I feel may'be they could have ironed out the HEAT issues before releasing the processor for our Tablet. I really hope Google has a huge update coming specifically made for this issue with our Nexus 10. Also once a lot more apps are optimized we'll really see the benefit of having our processor perform as it should.

Do you have any place that backs that up? Last I read (and I haven't read for a day or two), they didn't really comment on the GPU portion. Not trying to be a ****, I'm honestly curious.

Well search Mali t 658 on Google and go to the first link which should be from anand tech
And Mali t 658 is the Gpu that should be used here as the road maps show that exynos 5 quad would be paired with a Mali t 658 Gpu

Well ok some new articles show that the octa processor gives 2x(graphical) performance over previous generation exynos ie Mali 400 so it could be a Mali t 604 its unclear right we will have to wait for full details to release, otherwise A15 quad should have had Mali t 658 according to their roadmaps
I honestly wouldn't know what to do with an Android device that had 8 CPU cores... But if I could dual-boot (or replace) with some actual Linux onto such a device, then it might be very interesting
Samsung Exynos 5 Octa
This is the reason why i love tech world these days. Every thing comes so fast. It's like every tablet will only have several months to enjoy its fame before the new ones with much better specs arrive. I think Exynos 5 octa will be in Nexus 10 sequel from Samsung, with Tegra 4 in the Nexus from Asus, with the new Qualcomm chip in the Nexus 4.
Or maybe Google might decide to re-launch its Nexus line up in 2013 that will be armed with the newest chips from NVIDIA, Samsung and Qualcomm with the new brand names, say, Nexus 4S, Nexus 7S and Nexus 10S.
This will be interesting to see. Nexus maniacs will get like every experience that being offered on every Nexus device. No matter what Nexus' sequel you are gonna pick up, they will be great in performance and gaming aspects.

So, found a bit of an update. Apparently the Octa will be powered not by Mali, but by a PowerVR SGX 544MP3 (according to multiple sources, certainly not 100% confirmed as of yet). Apparently, that particular GPU sits between the one used in the A5X and the A6X.
Unfortunate that they didn't use something that would overtake the A6X GPU, but thought it was noteworthy that they're completely changing GPUs.

A lot of people don't realize that Samsung has a relationship with Imagination Technologies as do other chip makers, even those who make their own GPUs. Given how thirsty the Mali GPU in the Nexus 10 is, maybe the power vr equivalent will be more battery efficient. I know based on power consumption that the exynos 5250 is not really suitable for cell phone use in its present form.

At any rate, I think it would be up to Google or Samsung to release a patch or update to fix their thermal algorithm if its not using a true temperature reading. My device never feels hot. That's not saying much if anything at all but from other posts where people actually opened the thing up and tested temps, it is throttling much too soon to be correct. I think they baked the throttling in to increase battery life personally as this chip can burn through the battery fast if it was allowed to run 100% with GPU/CPU .

I thought the octa core cpus gpu is not confirmed yet?
And it will beat ipad 4 but not the upcoming ipad 5 which would be released around the same time the octa core device
My two cents
Edit: isn't mali from arm?
Apple and ti is related to it...
The powervr gpus u mean?

This 8 - core does look pretty cool but I think I will be buying a tegra 4 instead.

Sv: [Q] Poll: Samsung Unveils Exynos 5 "8core"
Besides it is actually quad core. 8 cores will never be used at the same time. 4 cores with lot of horsepower (and drains battery?) and 4 cores with less power (for battery saving)

U mean tegras are more optimized than exynos?..they suck and fail everytime on mobile devices.. Tegras are way suckier when it comes to mobile platforms..no thankss..

Qualcomm Technologies Announces Next Generation Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 “Ultra HD” Processor
Qualcomm has announced today a new generation Snapdragon 805 chipset with better 2.5GHz quad-core processor and 4K graphics.
The Snapdragon 805 delivers 4K display support in addition to the 4K video recording support, which was already available on the Snapdragon 800. More interestingly, the new chipset features a brand new Adreno 420 GPU, which has 40% more processing power than the previous generation Adreno 330 chips.
The latest Snapdragon 805 chipset also comes with an improved quad-core processor. The cores have a new Krait 450 architecture and have a maximum clock speed of 2.5GHz and memory bandwidth of up to 25.6GB/s. The Krait 450 is still a 32-bit processor, so we guess there is one more generation hardware to pass before Qualcomm outs 64-bit processor cores.
Qualcomm has also embedded a completely new modem called Gobi 9x35. It's manufactured on a 20nm process and is smaller, more power efficient, and, of course, faster. It supports LTE Category 4, dual-band WiFi ac and even allows 4K video streaming via Wi-Fi.

Finally the new Snapdragon 805 chipset incorporates a new dedicated camera processor, which will significantly increase camera speed and might even help boost image quality. It also uses the gyro sensor to stabilize the captured photos.
Qualcomm is ready to mass produce the Snapdragon 805 chips and we should see them in commercial devices in the first half of next year (the first ones will probably debut at CES in January and MWC in February).
The Snapdragon 805 seems like a decent upgrade over the Snapdragon 800, but we are yet to see if it will be able to dominate the competition the way its predecessor did.

Lol yup, thanks for kicking me in the nuts right after I buy your latest and greatest SAMSUNG!
At least our devices will be more powerful then most devices for a long time(1 year maybe?)
Don't worry, since we are on Verizon, we won't be able to buy a Snapdragon 805 device until probably next October!
The Note 3 should be a fast device for more than 1 year to come. The Snapdragon 800 will still be quite good and we have 3GB RAM unlike most devices. When I moved from Note 2 I had never felt that it was ever lacking in speed despite intense multitasking, I have no doubt that even the Note 2 will be quite usable and still quick next year.
Maybe it will appear in the Note 4 and S5?
I'm holding out for something Snapdragon 1000 powered :smug:

Then the US Note 3 gets this?
Hoping this will go straight to tablets so I can keep this smug on my face a little while longer.
I finally got my phone how i like it and now its last months model. AGH
I need those 4k graphics on my phone though... Hopefully the note 4 has an 850 in it at least and 4k res on a 6 inch display. I'd buy it

Would you all like it better if flagship devices/SoC's were debuted every 20 months - 2 years instead, allowing users to reign with the best device throughout the duration of their contract, and the chance to grab the next best thing immediately?
I know how it goes (something faster will always come out), but I hate the fact that in just a few short months the S5 (and other devices) are going to be faster and more advanced than my Note 3.
Idk... The s4 seemed slower in every way to me than the note 2
