compare the SG3 results from this source to GSMArena's own and you'll notice the dodgy difference in the numbers. And lets not forget JB will increase the results for many of these benchmarks.

    I'm am a galaxy s3 owner but I saw on YouTube and seen on websites the galaxy s3 score a lot better on these benchmarks, I think they are false in some way because the Mali 400mp has been proven and I know it's more powerful than the powervr and the adreno 225 so really the Mali should beat the US version of the galaxy s3 and be either on level or better than the iphone 5

      Even Qualcomm are saying that most smartphone users don't need 4 cores. Smartphones run just fine on two cores, as proven with the Krait.

      Haha, so at last the myth of quad core has been all blown wide open.

        But with Lumia 920 you can shoot lower shutter speed handheld shots or use the display with gloves on. Doesn't that sound cool now?

                As expected for being late in the game. Nothing to be proud of really. Newer flagship should beat older flagships.

                        Great performance by the iPhone 5, but maybe it's because of the smaller resolution and not sure if these are legit
