Don't forget snapdragon 800 and tegra 4 before you make that statement Octa CPU will be the best. It will not..

    I hope they're true to word the snapdragon 600 being faster than the competition.
    That should help 'calm' down my nerves. lol

        So the Exynos 5 Octa turned out to be just a Hype after all.I was very anxious to see how it will perform againest the S600 but i guess i'm gonna be waiting for it longer than expected.

          [deleted post]Samsung has best benchmarks if you care for those.
          http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_one-review-912p5.php
          Even better than HTC One and Xperia Z
          .
          I don't know what you want them to say? Xperia Z or HTC One are the best? Xperia S and One X are best examples of what future Xperia Z and HTC one will have, both of them didn't even reach 1/8 of what SIII did.

            Samsung galaxy s4 is/will be,the greatest/best with both CPU's.because both CPU's are/will be really fast and powerful!.but on the other hand,am so very excited to see the comparison between the two CPU'S, to see but witch of the two great CPU'S is the fastest!.so come on GSMArena do your best and show us the comparison between the two great CPU'S as soon as possible!!!!!!!.but anyway goes!?, am so excited to buy the Samsung galaxy s4 as soon as possible, and because it have a lot and lot more fantastic spec's! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

              I wonder what will South Africa have... LTE is currently being rolled out, it should have reached most areas in most major cities by September this year.

              Interesting enough, why didn't Sammy think of having LTE built into the Exynos 5??? They had over a year to do that...

                      AnonD-118301, 25 Mar 2013i'm still hoping that the octa-core will support lte... :(It can, but Qualcomm has the patent and it will not allow competitors to use it in their chip, Samsung must use external LTE chip like the one in Note II LTE which will make the phone thicker and more battery drainage.
                      Exynos and Nvidia can't embedded LTE technology in their chips maybe at least for the next couple of years.

                          Better wait for the Note 3 for the optimization of the Exynos Octa processor. :))
