Seems most nooby here doesn't know that S4 is a next generation A15 equivalent processor.

This is just like choosing between a quadcore A8 CPU vs dualcore A9 CPU.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

I just want to say that even if android is running on quad. Unfortunately u dont have even single app to utilize it and also.

I really wonder that benchmarks really reveal anything. Real world results are different.
Last time i tried playing a game on Galaxy S and really lagged and then i tried same game on iPod touch 2009 Model which ran smooth.I am really done with all those benchmarks.

Android only good on paper but windows/iOS really good in real life even with low specs.
Sure u can say windows phone is bad but samsung and HTC also makes them because its a nice polished OS running on low spec hardware.

Unless google really implement stuff , dual or quad makes no difference and also no offence that Galaxy s3 or HTC one X comes with OEM bloatware unlike nexus series which has pure android experience and also perfectly integrated because google launches new OS everytime along with new phone.

Galaxy s2 showed lot of difference in benchmark after ICS uodate and people got that update recently and some of regions still doesnt have updates. Pathetic OEMs rushing to release phones instead of making them perfect and then releasing.

    Anonymous, 15 May 2012your right, ours probably wont even be a dual core, like th... moreSo True. I'm on Tmo US and they've screwed the customers quite a bit with phones as of late. The Tmo S2 was actually the fastest version though.

    I'm waiting for that Tmo Note. If anyone knows where I can get a AT&T Note Off Contract for cheap, let me know. Please and Thank You. :)

    Knowing Tmo, they're probably going to try to charge $700 off contract for a almost year old device still and it'll most likely have no updates over the previous Note.

          They really should use the A15, so much faster and LTE supported.

            thank god though i hate verizon... sad people had to pay high because there is no market for good service so they jack the price up. att and tmobile better do something.

                    Fragmentation 101.

                    Why they still come out many phones when they can't even provide simple updates to older phones. Oh well.

                    Anywho it doesn't matter, basically the difference would be noticeable in battery consumption. Usage-wise unless you are a heavy-ass user you will feel the difference, other than that, nope. Even 1Ghz 1st-gen is fine to do many things, just not able to multi-task many things compared to now.

                        I guess since this version has a Dual Core processor, it's not worthy anymore.

                        Thus the logic of Android fanboys. LOL

The Exynos is a 32nm chipset, you're getting confused with the Tegra 40nm chipset which is slower or equal to the S4. The Exynos beats them both, go read benchmarks.

                                    samsung you guys are pathetic, you introduce a quad core but limit it to dual core to put in the lte, cause the lte couldnt go in with it, all the millions we give u
