Galaxy S3 Quad core vs Dual core - Exynos vs Snapdragon - International vs LTE

2012-07-12
what's going on ladies and gentlemen thanks for stopping in once again this is Clayton Youngberg coming at you from the number one website for all things Android Android Authority calm today we've got a headset a comparison between the quad-core processor and the dual core processor located in the Samsung Galaxy s3 alright today we've got a dead comparison between the quad core Exynos chip set in the international unlocked version of the samsung galaxy s3 and the Snapdragon s4 dual-core processor in the carrier variants and a US version of the Samsung Galaxy s3 so anyways I've gots a few 10 so anyways I've got a few tests lined up to put these two through the motions we're going to be playing some dead trigger both of them i've modded to fully enable the Tegra 3 graphics on the game so we get the full graphics we're going to put these under a heavy load and then we're going to be doing a quadrant test as well as just some transition tests maybe some web browsing maybe some camera power but without further ado let's check out the dead trigger gameplay we'll open it up on both devices so you can see our s4 is in a bit of a lead but I did possibly press it just a bit sooner on the Snapdragon processor I'm not going to rate the game now even though we got a prompt to rate the game on the quad-core it still booted up a little bit faster we've got our main quest here now we're just going to go to the main quest on each of these and then I'll pause one looks like I press that just about the exact same time so we'll see which one comes out on top it's like the quad cores I've get a little bit ahead anyways before new zombies come you can see that the Tegra 3 graphics are enabled we have our steam and we have our water so we will just pause on the s4 Snapdragon and we'll kill a few here I'm getting killed from behind must be this crawler to know that there was powers in this game so anyways you saw that now we'll do it on our dual-core s4 see it's still rendering really nicely our water and let's kill these guys a slight bit of lag right there but a 2 gigabytes of RAM does well especially when multitasking now mind you I didn't have any apps open before I open the dead trigger application we'll walk under the water that drips here you can see our water dripping animation and we'll also do the same on the quad-core version of the galaxy s3 so your water renders very nicely there it's like the speeds are just about at par with each other I mean they're not going to be too different then we got our water heater so we have the water on each device rendering it just about the exact same speed really nice and we'll just let ourselves get killed and see if there's any lag involved and there's not so we'll go home on this device I press them at the exact same time it looks like they actually made it they're the exact same time as well now we'll go into our task management system in our half manager we'll just long press the home button they both came up at the exact same time again we did have our task manager open and our dead trigger we will remove all and now we'll press once again to go into our task manager you can see how much RAM is free now of course the Snapdragon s4 has a lot more RAM this comes with 2 gigabytes looks like we have a four hundred and 25 Meg's used and on the quad core we have four hundred and six megabytes use will clear the memory and see what we get then so we've got 327 and then we got 325 so basically it's across the board as far as RAM usage it's even across the board but we do have a lot more RAM available on the Snapdragon s4 now that being said we'll close our task manager just so there's no running apps and will perform a quadrant test now each of these are hooked to the same Wi-Fi network so let's actually see which one completes the benchmark and we'll actually watch the entire benchmark and make a note of the FPS that it's running at so let's do this looks like I might have tapped the run benchmark just a little bit sooner on the s4 but we'll see if that makes a difference definitely looks like our CPU is going a bit faster on the quad-core anyways on the exhaust chipset but once we get to memory we will see a significant boost in the Snapdragon model over the quad-core except we were running at 60 frames per second fair def 61 here we had a peak of 66 we have 61 all right so when we check out our quadrant tests on each of these will just pop our screens on once again we got a 5585 on the quad-core model of the Samsung Galaxy s3 and then we got a 40 959 on the dual-core now as far as CPU we got 12,000 870 on the quad-core we got 8,000 464 so we got a little more than 2,000 more excuse me on the quad-core model but then as far as memory we got 7,000 34 on the dual-core and we got 40 486 so we've got about 2000 more in memory on the Snapdragon s4 now our 2d is just about the same you know this is still a super super good score so beats out most the phones out there so we'll go back we'll see if these two core it we'll see if the two CPUs have an effect on the camera and we'll actually turn these both to snapshot and so let's just take a few snapshots both just as fast camera performance is great anyways guys there was a quick comparison between the dual-core and quad-core variants of a samsung galaxy s3 now as far as benchmark results go the quad-core Asano's chipset obviously scored more but the ram the two gigabytes of RAM on the dual-core model bumped it up to just about you know in the same tier of scores so they're both great devices no matter which one you guys buy I wouldn't really base your decision on the amount of cores in the International Version as the two gigabytes of RAM can really run basically a lot more applications just because of all that extra RAM but anyways guys if you like the videos go ahead and subscribe to android authority comm we got more where this is coming from
