Anyone have any insight between these two phones? They have the same size screen, both quad core.. Mainly what I'm mostly concerned about is media consumption. Which will give better audio performance?

Don't assume because they are similarly spec'd they will get the same performance from their quad cores...
Unfortunately I don't know anything about the DAC on the LGOG

This has been said many times the Tegra 3 in the HTC only supports single channel memory, only comes with one gig and it's based on A9 architecture. The LG has two gigs of dual channel memory and based on A15 tech also 20 nm

Yeah, 28nm transistors on the lgog vs 40nm on the one x plus is a big deal. There are no 20nm chips in production, the closest is 22nm nand flash modules from Intel and Toshiba.

Yeah I was half asleep when I wrote that and had just been reading that story about Samsungs new 20 an 10nm ram chips But still 28nm should be allot more efficient than 40nm and the dual channel ram with double the amount is a huge difference in speed.
Its actually 22 vs 40. Overall the LGOG would seem like the superior phone in terms if gaming/media capability. But honestly your posting in an LG optimus g thread..everyone here pretty much picked this phone out of all the others. .going to be pretty one sided. Comes down to personal preference. Take a chance. Both phones are great and if you are un happy you always have the buyers remorse period.

I don't know about best performance, but I plan on picking up the LGOG today, despite the beauty of the One X+, mainly due to the larger storage capacity available through the microSD slot. The One X+ doesn't have one, and I already have a spare 64GB microSD, so that made the decision easy for me.
I picked mine up today. I've never seen a fast stock rom. This thing is nuts. I have one bright pixel so I'm going back to best buy to swap it out in the morning.
I was having this debate with myself just recently, until I unlocked the phone's bootloader with the "projectFreeGee" method and now I'm a happy LG owner again ! I can't wait for the custom ROMs, the One X+ is great right now, but with future Android updates in the upcoming two years , having 2 GB of RAM will become a must. This phone is future prof, plus it looks 10 times more elegant.

The snap Dragon is a much faster and more efficient cpu as well, it is like comparing an AMD to an Intel. This is the next level of tech, the next Tegra well probably be built on this architecture. Smaller lighter less heat produced and more energy efficient.

Weird. Well, you can google it, "HTC Ville", I found it by accident somewhere, but after I googled it, I saw a ton of articles on it already
Edit: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-19736_...umored-as-first-sense-4.0-android-smartphone/ I went back to that website, and recopied it, maybe it'll work now
if you're intrigued by the whole 'quad-core' thing, don't. it's going to be quite some time before phones will even take real advantage of that.
heck, even then, for instance my netbook has an i7 cpu in it and at any given time it's only using between 5 - 10% of the cpu. that and playing a game it'll average 30 - 40%. so really an i7 is unecessary.
also, if you're into speed... in no time we'll be able to overclock the re:Zound(not that we need to). Hell, my Thunderbolt's 1 jigga hertz cpu is overclocked to 1.9
but again, there will be no point in overclocking for a loooong time.

Correct me if I am wrong, but the big news about the new quad-core phones is not only performance, but the capacity to save 30/40% of battery life more, compare to dual cores:

At this point do you think they are really necessary.? I haven't ran across anything that gives the dual cores any trouble at all at this point from apps to games. What are your thoughts

I personally think think that 2 cores are good enough and see no point in upgrading the processor when the screen resolution, storage space, etc. could be upgraded instead.
They're not necessary at this point in time.

The tech industry needs to focus on battery life instead of marketing schemes like cores.
Of course they aren't necessary right now,apps really aren't optimized for them nor are they NEEDED. BUT with that said it was the same thing when dual core phones and tablets launched. And now they are pretty much standard in all high end and even some mid ranged phones

Do any of you have any idea of what you're talking about? Of course Quad Core processors are a great marketing point. QuadCore increases battery life! I'd like to see a 16 Core phone by the end of next year! Of course all of you will ask, "What are we going to do with a 16 core phone? I'll reply, In todays world... Most people are using their phones far more than any desktop or laptop computer. Computers are becoming a thing of the past.
Why do you think they started coming out with them in laptops? Also, I think every phone should have 3D screens weather they take 3D photos or not. 3D is here to stay.
i don't see any need for quad cores at the moment (when tech advances then maybe).
Evo 3D is more than capable at the moment of handling alot more things than other phones at the same time (3D+Sense+ using the whole thing), if anything i think manufactureres should improve graphics and RAM capacity along with battery life.
Quad core on tablets = yes for me
....but definitely not on phones for now
actually quad cores are more efficient in any situation but intensive gaming and benchmarking because they can turn off individual processors or scale them all down to a much lower clock. take note however that the krait dual core cpus outperform the tegra 3 quad core cpus in both cpu and gpu. makes you think there is something that the evo 3d is missing out on.

It can definitely be done. The Droid Razr Maxx I believe sports a 1.5ghz dual core processor and includes a damn 3300mah battery that can run 11hours of video with LTE one. And it's thinner than the note and iPhone. Motorola went in the right direction with that phone. Pretty much 2 days with light use.

So what you're saying is that you're advocating the decelerate progression of hardware innovation because of the current limitation of our current android operating system?
I get what you're stating brother. However, it's good that hardware is in the fast lane this time around. This time around software is playing catch up.
It was because of dual core that pushed Google to work more efficiently with it in their upgraded releases. So you can imagine what will come in the near future!
And if the price of new multi core phones stays roughly the same, I don't see the issue. That's actually a good thing!

the Tegra 3 should probably shine when a Tegra 3 optimized app is used for comparison. not sure if you need special software framework to take advantage of the quad core +1
S4 build off the a15 takes the cake. Qualcomm did a great job with it.
some benchmarks indicate the tegra is more powerful and some indicate that the snapdragon is more powerful however it is ussually hinted that the snapdragon will provide similar performance but save battery because of its asynchronous dual cores. really it is all about software and drivers and nvidia is renowned for their developments in both. nvidia will get the game first, run them smoothly and display well optimized graphics. it doesn`t matter how pwerful the hardware is if the software can`t take advantage of it. this is clearly indicated in the last generation snapdragons which had terrible gpu issues due to poor gpu drivers. keep in mind however that many apps have not been optimised for quad core and may not run at their best.
Yes this is pretty well known here...each SoC has its own advantage over the other....specifically the Tegra3 should sin out GPU wise, while the S4 wins out in some other categories...

They are the same size one phone was on display platform and the other was laying flat..... Basically both phones in different angles.
pretty intresting test breakup, tegra 3 looks to have cpu cores with a lot more omph but its extremely memory-starved, even if nominally it should have twice the mhz for memory than s4 (from the datasheet, dunno what kind of memory HTC actually shipped in that phone)
as for graphics its a bit funny that the S4 gpu core is a development of one ati/amd project(*), even here we have ati/amd VS nvidia showoff...
(*) selling their mobile division for pocket change just when mobile chips were starting to become the biggest cpu business in the world was really the stupidiest thing even done by amd...

I don't know about you, but I use the MEAN ROM and while it is the best ROM hands down, I still don't get the performance I would expect from a dual core phone. It is the best performer among other ROMS, but still not what I would expect in this day and age. When I am connected to WIFI, I would expect that my web pages (on device), load as fast as on my PC... or at least almost as fast. This has never been the case with any ROM or any phone. Once that happens, I will be close to happy.
I am guessing that the biggest limiter these days is the speed of internal memory? Does anyone know how that compares to PC memory?

The 32nm quad core is by Samsung and is the Exynos SoC, not an S4...Currently the only S4 in the Qualcomm roadmap for this year is the APQ8064, and it has no modem so likely a tablet only chip...
Now the rumor of the VZ HTC phone for the holidays this year states they will have a quadcore S4 in it, which is odd given the roadmap leaks as the earliest MSM(these are the ones with built in modems) variant quad-core was not listed till Q1 of '13...

Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to know any provider in US is providing the quad core version of the phone? I have to get myself a new phone. And will weigh my options between iPhone 5 and S3 (just waiting for reviews and comparisons), but wanted the quad core version of the Galaxy S III.
U can get them from newegg brand new but at full price.
All the us carriers have the dual core version. And actually my brother has lte dual core version from T-Mobile and according to our test, his is slightly better in the graphics department and mine is better in cpu but not enough to tell a difference.

I beg to differ. I actually have both devices currently. The overall speed is slightly different. The dualcore seems a bit quicker but it's not as smooth and fluid as the 9300. You really can only tell having them side by side by the US version is slightly more jerky than the 9300. I'm not saying the US is a slouch at all but side by side you can see the difference.
The JB leak on the US version has made it super smooth though. I believe project butter is farther along on the dualcore JB leaks than the 9300 leaks.
About the heat, my US version actually heats up more than my 9300. The Ram department I'm not seeing a huge difference there either. I mean sure the US has more free ram available but so far I havent noticed anything too different. I mean I have over 700mb free on my US version now. I opened an app like 20 min ago came back to it and it had to relaunch so even though I had over 700MB free the app still closed itself(or android did)
They are both great devices and I do find myself switching between the two. LTE is very nice..
I really really hope they release a quad with 2gb and LTE in the US like they are in other parts of the world but I doubt they will since in their eyes NA already has a LTE capable GS3 with 2gb of ram. That would be my perfect phone
So I wouldnt hold my breath for them releasing one in the US that just has Quadcore with 2gb of ram and LTE but I guess I can hope
The international version has a faster GPU by quite a way. However, if I were you I'd focus more on whether you require 4G than whether you can get hold of the quad core. The reality is that the quad core processor is not better. If I had the choice I'd have gone for the S4, but of course that choice was not there.

While many are responding to your question about S3 quad vs US dual core differences, I wanted to respond to your iPhone 5 vs S3 doubt.
I think you should first of all think about screen size. In my opinion, 4" and 4.8" are totally different things. For me the choice is simple, I wouldn't want the iPhone because the screen is too small. The apps can be fantastic and fluid on the iPhone, I will enjoy them more on a (much) larger 4.8" screen. The iPhone 5 seems to really have a (exynos 5 based) dual core A15 based processor, which is pretty neat. The performance should be really great while battery life will be solid as well. Anyway, it all doesn't matter because the screen is too small!
So I would say think about this, if you still have doubts between the iPhone 5 and the S3 (whatever version)

There is no way u would choose the dual core 2gb over the quad core 2gb. Thats a joke. They done a comparison and the dual core 2gb is equal to the quad 1gb. So let's just imagine the quad with 2gb

I also own both devices and I've been having such a hard time deciding on which one to keep and which one to sell. The US version definitely is jerkier on ICS. I'm downloading the T-Mobile JB leak right now, but I was running one of the Canadian leaks and it still felt jerky like ICS was. Battery life between the two seems pretty even although the International seems to win out. Also I'm on Straight Talks so LTE isn't a factor for me. The US model probably due to the modems and what not seems to be better with straight talk than my International does. Sound quality I have to say is better on the i9300 vs. 747. Even with cheapo headphones I was noticing some songs sounded worse on the i747 vs. i9300. I'm still going back and forth. The 2gb of ram is nice, but I really haven't seen any difference in the Ram usage between the two. The S4 seems to kill background processes the same as the Exynos. There definitely seems to be more development for the International model over the US one, but seeing as Sprint, T-Mo, AT&T, and Verizon are all the same there's still a lot of development and if one gets a better leak than the others it quickly gets ported.

We have the Wolfson chip that's why

I never really noticed until I was listening to songs on random. Usually when I go for a run I use my Zune HD for music, but I was using my i747 so I could use one of those GPS running apps and I was thinking man I don't remember this song sounding so muffled and flat.

I have both as well and I'm thinking of using my i9300 as a media player/gaming device and stripping out all the phone stuff and using my i747 for phone functions like surfing the web texting etc.. for the LTE connection (which has spoiled me) But I think I would look pretty funny on the subway with two of the exact same devices. One for my music and one for texting.. hahha
Quad core is the way forward, if you wanted a dual then in all honesty there are better phones out there for the price tag.
A lot of people say that the extras cores aren't always utilized and they're partly right, but the overall feel of the system and gaming in particular will shine through on a quad as opposed to the dual offering.
If you have the honour of being able to choose between them, then you have to weigh up whether you want quad core or 4G.
Personally i've got wifi most places i go and HSPA is rapid for me so it's a no brainer but some ppl just want more, i myself think it's an unnecessary sacrifice.
But thats just my opinion.
Will the tegra 3+ processor affect performance in any way? And what are its drawbacks as compared to snapdragon? Also does it have any advantages over the snapdragon?
Not really. The tegra 3 to be truthful is one of thebworst SOCs on the market. The krait s4/s4 pro both out perform it in every aspect. Be it standard voltage, dye leakage (smaller transistors 28nm, as opposed to t3's 40nm), performance at similar clock speeds (float point, multitasking, etc). I feel like nvidia really has no clue what theyre doing looking at the architecture for the tegra 3. TI's OMAP crushes the krait s4, and the exynos chipsets usually are on top of that. The only real drawback to having an exynos chipaet is the lack lf source documentation on sammys part which makes development difficult. But with all thats been going on regarding that it looks like thats about to change. Exynos with documentation is as good as it gets since youre getting a powerhouse CPU and GPu. The t3 has got an okay gpu at best. Sorry to burst your bubble :/ just stating facts

For me being USA ATT user would it then be best to choose the HTC ONE DLX instead of the ONE X+ due to the processors? Well neither are out yet so who knows if the US version processors will be any different. Just thinking with a 5" screen i'll need a back pack to carry it around, lol. Coming from an Iphone 4 3.5" screen to a possible X+ 4.7" screen is a huge jump in itself. Just can't stick with Apple after the huge let down of the Iphone 5 so making the switch as soon as these phones come out. New to all this stuff but had no idea Tegra 3 really that bad? Videos of the device look smooth and gameplay?
If you really wanna know about the power of the Tegra3, your gonna want to read these threads.

The first thread will be a general discussion on the international HOX and has a lot of information concerning the Tegra3. A lot of pages, over 930, but worth the time to read to understand the Tegra3 chip and what it is capable of as well as some info regarding the S4. The second thread has 60+ pages and is concerning gaming on the HOX. Well worth the time to read and see what all had to be done to get the full potential of the Tegra3. You also have to evaluate your choices this way. The Tegra3 is built with gaming in mind. The S4Pro is built with all around performance in mind.

it's a good processor, but not in comparison to the Exynos 4 quad and the snapdragon S4/S4 pro. Those are definitely better SoCs
