How Samsung Fooled Benchmarks

[immyperez]

If only the average user knew how useless benchmarking really can be sometimes!

You have to play about with a phone to get a feel for how it performs. When I use an iphone 5, it runs slick. When I use my 1020 or even a 610 or 520, it runs pretty slick too.

When I use an android phone (even the high end ones), there is always that 'jitter' that just bugs the hell out of me!

Btw, there's no point to this...I'm just sounding off, lol! Still though, when I read such articles, it just annoys me to hell!!!

I have seen many reputed reviewers move away from benchmarks since they dont fully justify the experience with the device. It i good at least this has come into focus now and people are informed.

Thanks for the link
