        all these companies are putting 720p screens in their phone to be able to claim their phone beats the snapdragon 600 phones & exynos octas with 1080p screens on the market... pushing less than half the number of pixels raises the antutu score by +/- 2000 points...

          Why 720p is disappointing ?? IMO 1080p is an overkill.I am better off with 720p on a ~5" phone , rather than wasting battery and loosing on frames.

                  AnonD-71600, 29 Nov 2013more powerful hardware opens way to more powerful software.... moreMy phone replaced my PC back in 2009 with the Nokia n900.
                  I'm happy with more processing power. With increases in processing power also comes lower power consumption. Its a win win situation.

                                  Did anyone noticed that the device is a dual-sim one? That may explain the rest of the specs being lower than on a high end device.

Even then they are nowhere as powerful as Intel/AMD based pcs. 8 cores or not.

                                      Even games don't use multiple cores much... most of the workload is on the GPU front.
