[citation][nom]blackened144[/nom]You should do a little research.. When the iPhone4S goes on sale the PowerVR SGX543MP2 GPU it has will be the fastest GPU chip you can buy in a phone.. It is currently the fastest GPU you can buy in a tablet and all benchmarks, including those here on Toms, prove this.. Right now the fastest GPU in a phone is a toss up between phones using the Mali-400 MP, Tegra2, or SGX540 hardware... Since you somehow dont believe the numbers, its obviously you thats been drinking the koolaid..[/citation]
For people with difficulties understanding GPU "&" GPU that means both -as in combo as in together; do you understand now or should I start spelling it out. I will stand with my point, they are NOT the most powerful combo and even YOU said its a toss up with a GPUs that came out in the BEGINING OF THIS YEAR... the ignorance and fanboy-ism in both yours and watcha comments is limitless.
Infact since you are so concerned with beating chips form 3 quarters ago maybe you should see 2 or 3 most recent re-tests they all show that SGX540 is not "THE BEST" so either put up concrete evidence from multiple sources or shut up.
[citation][nom]watcha[/nom]As blackened said - it is not 'mediocre' if it's the fastest currently available, now is it?Secondly, why did you bring up the Nexus Prime? Nobody was talking about that. Somebody said the Galaxy S2 had a retina screen, I corrected them. At least try to stay relevant?Finally, why did you bring up the Nexus Prime anyway - it isn't even out yet, and it has a PPI which is lower than the iPhone 4 (320 vs 326), released 18 months ago? That smacks of desperation, really, if you try to demean a product using products which haven't even been released yet, kinda shows that you know there aren't any current alternatives. And what's more, it has a lower PPI anyway![/citation]
NO, current selection(test samples and such) available to purchasers like apple is much more than you think but you it does take months to develop everything in a package and sell it and apple is continiously the slowest to test things since the damn case was barely even redesigned.
The point being is Nexus Prime is primeiring next week... and having that high of ppi is VERY impressive on a screen that is damn near 1/3 bigger by area than 4s, not to mention it is AMOLED at that. But we will see it might be the same hyped-up fail like this 4s.
No I drink no KoOl aid- I HAVE a ip4, captivate and euro sgs II and I will buy whatever is worth buying but I'm not a goddamn fool to see a simple rehash at a premium price of a completely re-made phone. This is all about price/value(features,performance) and 4s fails in that.
