AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note vs Samsung Galaxy Nexus, Which Is Faster?

2012-05-02
what's up guys is David here from fumble calm and in this video I'm comparing the samsung galaxy note on AT&T against the unlock samsung galaxy nexus so i'm just going to be doing a speed comparison test comparing the boot of times in the devices how long it takes to load up a couple of apps the web browser I'll do a quadrant benchmark as well and a few other tests just to kind of give you guys better idea as far as which one is the faster phone this guy has a 1.5 gigahertz Snapdragon s3 processor 1 gig ram this guy has a 1.2 gigahertz TI OMAP for 460 with one gig of ram so of course you can't just look at the spreadsheet you have to Testament in the real world and that's what we're going to do right here so go ahead and turn on both devices at the same time so one two three and I'll let go and I'll let's go ahead and watch these two devices power up and see which one turns on the fastest alright so the samsung galaxy note on the left showed the lock screen first you can still tell it's loading up some of the background scans for the SD card but I could unlock the phone so let me unlock that guy so you can see it's still a little bit Lykke because it's still loading up things in the background but we'll do the same thing with the Galaxy Nexus now and you see this one's a little laggy to its reloading the home screens that unlock it a little fast so for this test we're just going to go ahead and give the win to the Galaxy Note because this drop the lock screen first and I was able to get into the phone a little bit faster than on the Galaxy Nexus so that's a win for the galaxy note the first test that i'll do is a few app test app speed test so a little flixster on each phone so i'll hit them at the same time and just let you guys know they are both on the same Wi-Fi network so we'll go ahead and hit flixster and in this case the galaxy note beat out the Galaxy Nexus so that's that for that test will load up scorecenter next just to get a better idea so scorecenter and again the galaxy note beat out the Galaxy Nexus so we'll go ahead and go on to the next test which is loading up dictionary so a lot of the dictionary app and once again the Galaxy Note II out the Galaxy Nexus so obviously the 1.5 gear processor seems to be doing what you'd expect it to do on the spec sheet and that's beating out the 1.2 TI OMAP but we'll go ahead and run another test so actually i'm going to do is close up these apps really quick so close out the apps that are running on here and we'll just close these guys out really quick and we'll load up now a quadrant standard benchmark like i said so let me find quadrant here and here where's quadrant there it is all right so is open them up and i'll go ahead and run the test and obviously I don't want to show you guys the whole you know benchmark because that does take a while so I'll just pause the video and I'll skip to you when the results are in so let's go ahead and press them at the same time and like i said i'll pause the video and continue once they're done alright so both benchmarks are done I was going to hit yes on both and we'll get the scores so on the galaxy note is scored a 2039 so let me bring that up close to the camera so you can see 2039 and on the Galaxy Nexus pretty close but a little bit less at 2004 so again the winner of this test is the Galaxy Note so it speed it out and the bootup test the app speed test and now the quadrant benchmark so far so it's three now we'll go ahead and run our next test which is the google earth test so this is more or less testing the GPU on each phone because we'll be loading up 3d graphics so excuse me on that let me quote let me go ahead and close out actually the apps that are running in the background so close these two out we're going to let Google Earth to the same time on both phones so let me find it on here alright so earth and earth and we'll press at the same time getting to load it up faster on the galaxy note which seems to be the theme now um both are set to my location let's go ahead and load up Las Vegas so hit search on each phone las vegas legacy is early in the history on each guy and what i'm going to be doing is loading up the 3d buildings on each phone too and I'm you pinching in and out just a kind of test to GPU to see how well it's able to handle the 3d graphics in Google Earth to test GP that comes with these processors so i'll get i'll go ahead and now pause the video for about a minute to let him finish uploading the buildings and then i will go ahead and run the test alright so we went ahead and let both devices load up for about a minute or so so we'll go ahead and test the galaxy note first so i'll just go ahead and pinch in and out and i try to pay attention to how smoothly or laggy each device is when zooming in and out so i'll go ahead and zoom in on this particular building so you can see it did stutter a little bit and it usually gets better as i zoom in and out as it builds some cash for the or what it's loading up and now let's go ahead and do a 360 type of you so try to rotate around let's take a look at the building go while I'm doing it so let's go ahead and do a 360 turn and now basically you see it's like it looks like frame by frame it's showing you the 3d buildings it's not really fluid it is sort of choppy I'll go ahead and press home and you can see it has to reload my home screen with my widgets and whatnot so I'll go ahead and load up the Galaxy Nexus now and I will test this guy so again will this zoom in and zoom out so zoom in zoom out and again will do the same thing with this guy and do a 3d or a three or a 360 turn on this guy so go ahead and zoom in a little bit let's look up at the building a little all right so 360 spin and um you know this one is also not necessarily the smoothest but I do have to say that it definitely looks a lot smoother than it does on the galaxy note and I'll go ahead and press home and this guy as well has to load up everything up in the background again so both phones were the same there but the Gaussian exes seem do you handle the 3d buildings a bit better than did the galaxy note so we're actually give the Galaxy Nexus its first win in that category and so now it's three two one and we'll go ahead and go on to the next test which is the browser test so go ahead and load up the stock browser on each device so let me go in here and load up the browser so let's go ahead and click on the same time actually first of all I'm gonna do is close up the google earth app already closed down here and close it out on here all right so we'll go ahead and load up the stock browser so one two three and as you can see it loaded up a bit faster on the Galaxy Note so i'll go ahead and now run a few tests all right so i went ahead and cleared up the browser history and cache on both of these devices so i'll go ahead and load up the first test i'll just go to nfl.com on each device so nfl.com on here and nfl.com on here and i'll hit go at the same time so one two three and now let's go ahead and see which one loads up the fastest so they were very close right here but it looked like the Galaxy Nexus actually beat out the galaxy note on this test will go ahead and scroll down to the bottom and that will load up the full version of these sites so we'll go and hit desktop at the same time one two three and you can see the Galaxy Nexus has a lead on the Galaxy Note right now and I'll let you know as soon as one of those done there you go so the Galaxy Nexus finished the galaxy note is still loading so obviously the winner of this test again is the Galaxy Nexus we're going to let load up on another website will load up yahoo com so both the mobile site and the full site on each device so yahoo com yahoo com alright so wait go at the same time one two three and again you can see the Galaxy Nexus is done loading the full site and the galaxy note is still loading the mobile site so kind of mess up on that test but still kind of shows you the result that we're looking for the Galaxy Nexus is definitely faster I made a little of the full website and basically the same amount of time it takes a lot of the mobile site on this guy and from the other tests that I've done just by using two devices I'll see that this guy's browser is definitely faster but I think that's more of a result of the ice cream sandwich that's on the Galaxy Nexus then is on the galaxy note with Jean gingerbread um once this guy gets the update i'll redo the test and we'll see if the results are the same or different but for now overall I'd say the faster phone is the Galaxy Note even though um the Galaxy Nexus did beat out the galaxy note when it came to a GPU performance so if you're looking for a phone that has a better graphics processor the Galaxy Nexus is definitely going to be the one that gives it four to you otherwise in all other regards it seems like the 1.5 gb snapdragon processor on the galaxy note outperforms the Galaxy Nexus and I only imagine once the galaxy note gets ice cream sandwich we'll see even more performance in Hanson's on this guy but that's pretty much it for me in this video if you found it helpful please hit the like button and subscribe and don't forget to visit bomble com more cell phone news reviews and how to's thank
