iPhone 3G vs 3GS vs Omnia i910 Browser Speed

2009-06-28
hi this is Stephens Carlotta's from pocketnow.com and today I'm going to compare browser speed rendering between the iPhone 3G the iPhone 3GS and the Verizon omnia I 9/10 for this test we're going to use Wi-Fi so we won't have any issues with the cellular networks the iPhone 3GS is a 600 megahertz unit as well as the omnia I 9/10 which also is rated at 600 megahertz while the iPhone 3G is a 400 megahertz unit so I expect that one to be slower you can find many comparisons of the 3G in the 3G s on YouTube but I thought it would be interesting to compare it to the windows mobile device but first we will do the 3G to 3GS comparison by using a mobile site MDOT cnn.com so we'll first bring up the Safari Browser get a new page up and I'll type in MDOT cnn.com you'll also notice that the 3GS screen does seem a little dimmer than the 3G and that's mostly due to the yellow or tint that's exhibited on the 3GS so I don't know if this is something Apple is going to fix but I'm pretty sure I have my settings for brightness at the middle and they also could have had the brightness recalibrated so let's try it now one two three go and you can see the rendering of the 3GS is almost instantaneously it's a quite impressive display so now we're going to take the 3G out of the mix and pair the 3GS to the Anya I 9/10 the omnia from Verizon comes with opera 9.5 I also want to mention that I am using OS 3.0 on both 3G and the 3GS so we're gonna bring up the browser and I'll type in m dot cnn.com and switching keyboards and really devices that the sensitivity of the screens are quite different between the omnia in the iPhone but once you get used to either I don't think it's a it's an issue there again I think you see that the omnia is quite a bit brighter than the 3GS something I definitely have to look at in terms of adjustments or is it something that Apple has to fix with a tweak of their graphics chip so we'll get rid of that page Oh remove that page ask for a new page then type in m dot cnn.com and then we're ready to go so make sure I'm all set here one two three go and you can see it's the 3GS there's just no comparison I mean Apple did a great job of optimizing the rendering speed and you can also see that the the pages are different the mobile site for the iPhone is probably optimized for the iPhone versus the windows mobile site which is optimized for mobile browsers in general not specific to any device but that's the speed test and something for the windows mobile OAM manufacturers to ponder
