Hello guys, I just bought this phone: http://www.fastcardtech.com/HDC-Galaxy-Note-2-H7189
And I saw here that this phone comes with PowerVR SGX544 GPU, and when I googled some other sites, I found on a few places in a product description that the phone has PowerVR SGX531 GPU..
Now my question is; is it possible that phones with Mediatek MT6589 processors come with PowerVR SGX531 GPU?
Or does this mean that these guys on other sites just got a bad info??
Regards,
Emrah.
P.S.
I saw on wikipedia right next to mt6589 processor that it supports PowerVR SGX544.. Link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaTek
But I am still not sure if the phone has to come with SGX544, or if that is the maximum that CPU supports..

Hey guys,
When I fire up SetCPU, under CPU information it says I have an ARMv7 Processor rev 1 (v7l).
Infact, each and every system information tool I've run on my phone keeps telling me the same thing.
These tools also keep telling me I have 1 processor core. Not 2. Got me really worried until the app "SystemPanel" showed me the activity of 2 CPU cores.
PHEW!!! Doesn't this phone have an ARM Cortex-A9 proccessor?
What do you guys see?

Cortex-A9 is a ARMv7 chip. See here
Wow, my ass is officially cool now. Thanks a lot man =D
How donkey kong of me.
if you want to compare it to intel processors, saying that it's ARMv7 is like saying it's a Sandy Bridge processor. Saying it's a Cortex A9 is like saying it's an i5(as opposed to an i3 or an i7).
What is the EXACT FULL Brand name of the processor?
My phone also shows the processor as : ARMv7 Processor rev 1 (v71)
This page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ARM_microprocessor_cores shows there are several sub classifications of ARMv7......so what exactly is the FULL brand name of this Processor? Is it really dual core? And is it good? Where does it stand when compared to Tegra and Exynos?
It's Samsung Exynos 4210 dual core
Doing a bit of enquiry, I found that both Exynos 4210 and Tegra 2 are SOCs (System-on-a-chip). These chips are jack of all trades, and amalgamate the ARM processor, GPU, anamnesis controllers and alien interfaces into a distinct chip. All SGS II phones with model number GT-i9100 have the Exynos 4210 and the model number GT-i9103 has the Tegra 2. Correct me if I'm wrong.

No ARMv7 is the instruction set, that is different from Sandy bridge which is a cpu architecture. So sandy bridge and cortex A9 are more on the same level but not exactly the same. And i5 is similar to a specific version of Exonys, but I think there only is one version

According to this all thing . i think that PowerVR SGX 540 is better the NVIDIA AP what do thing guys???????
WILL SOME ONE TELL ME
More doesn't mean better performance. Only way to truly tell is by testing both in side by side comparisons with the same hardware and software.
so tell me which one is best????

HAHAHA!! Have you read the responses to your question guy? Or do you just always respond with "Tell me which is best!"?
Best for what? Both don't perform comparably on different workloads. For example, say Tegra is better for OpenGL and OMAP outperforms on computational power (just an example, I don't have numbers here to tell you for real)
Hello, Good Day.!!
Hey guys i am little bit confuse about my Xperia mini Hardware
According to GSM ARENA The phone has
Chipset Qualcomm QSD8255 Snapdragon
CPU 1 GHz Scorpion
GPU Adreno 205
What does the CHIPSET stands for i mean what is the work of chipset? is it a Mainboard??
Some people said the phone has Snapdragon processor but here it says Scorpion.Snapdragon is a processor or a chipset??
http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_t...the_functioning_of_processor_chip_and_chipset
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snapdragon_(system_on_chip)
Snapdragon is a chipset, Scorpion is a CPU. Every computer nowdays has both CPU and chipset, including smartphones. Also, in smaller/portable devices GPU can be embedded into chipset. IIRC Snapdragon is one chip that contains it all, CPU, GPU and Chipset.
Motherboard is a board that contain those chip(s)
The trends we are seeing in this part of the World (Asia) with the New Crop of "Value for Money" Smartphones is MediaTek Processors...
Be it Lenovo, Alcatel or all major vendors in Asia, China, Indonesia...they are starting to go with these Processors...
Having said that We see a lot of Bad Mouth about this brand of Proccy....so what the real deal?
All of us would agree when we are looking at a dual core smartphobe at under 200 $ prce bracket.....we cant expect a Snapdragon S3!
And looks like all new VFM Samrtphones from China OEM or other places who rebrand OEM are ending up being MediaTek!
Starting this thread to get some discussion going for more enlightenment....
Current MediaTek Proccys in Market :
- MT6575 : Single core Cortex-A9 solution with an unidentified 5-series PowerVR GPU
- MT6577 : Dual Core 1GHz Cortex™-A9 application processor from ARM, a PowerVR™ Series5 SGX GPU
MediaTek breaks into Top 5 in Smartphones Procy sales Worldwide!

bad mouth about mediatek, well i don't think so. mediatek processors should be at par with any other processors but the problem is afaik they dont release their kernel sources and they are still stuck with their sgx 531t gpu which is almost at par with our adreno 205 but not any better. however i might be wrong. i read about this a long time back and i dont remember the exact source.

They are on PowerVR GPU Now...on eh 1Ghz Single Core and 1 Ghz Dual Core chips
I'd suggest to move the whole discussion to "Android General". There you will certainly find more people to discuss your particular issues and do not spam this board. Thank you....even if I sound like forum police now :laugh:
moved
I have some question on my mind before i buy new Android Smartphone !
please guide me about Processor
Like MTK / Cortex / Qualcomm / Scorpion / Snapdragon
may be its a brand but which one is better if they all is 1 GHz ?
or if they all Running on 1 GHz that means they all Dual Core or Single Core?
personally ask which one is better Processor ?
MTK6573 With PowerVR 531 GPU
or
Qualcomm Scorpian With Adreno 200 GPU
both are 1 GHz !
Dual core > single core

Both if both dualcore then which one is good? If both singlecore then which one is good?

Adreno 200 is a bit old for these days. All the processors have their pros and cons. It's up to you which one you buy. I prefer Qualcomm. But its not always the better choice
that means PowerVR SXG531 GPU is better then adreno 200 right ?
