What answer do you expect from 2nrs? Do we work at these companies?
I gave you an answer and you weren't having it. So I dunno what to tell you again if you dunno.
I expected more intelligent debate actually. You're basically saying you don't mind being hoodwinked or mislead essentially as you believe it's just heresy and actually try to justify the actions. Who cares if you don't work for the companies? If that's your logic then why bother posting on anything then.
The other thread was really only a Samsung cuz it was a well respected site calling out the company as they found the benchmark issues as related to the Note 3.
Today this is another well respected website calling out essentially more than just Samsung.
Thankfully you don't speak for all 2nrs though.
Where did I call it heresay?
Talking about an intelligent debate but lying.
Notice no others taking you on. They know you're up to no good, and I will follow suit
The question is why they are doing this...the gains from cheating are miniscule...and only has an effect on the benchmarks apps in question.
The only logical explanation is that Samsung is pushing their Exynos SoC against Qualcomm's and everyone involved (SoC makers as well as phone manufacturers) looking to get any extra edge to gain the population's mindshare and eventually more sales.
As I type this out and analyse it in my head, it actually makes sense. Competition is a hell of a motivating factor. Trouble is, now that the cat is out of the bag (again), benchies are going to be judged with an even bigger pinch of salt than usual. Also, it is going to be harder to effectively acertain which SoC is ACTUALLY faster and not artificially boosted to gain higher scores....sad.
Das why I always say, Nexus FTMFW yes. I wont be caught dead with a device not running plain stock android!
Let me just say I started this as a separate thread as this has less to do with Android the OSitself but mods put it here.
The performance increase also depends on what benchmark is used.
On Anandtech which calls out everyone who does it the performance increases were smaller like 5%.
On Ars Technica while reviewing the Note 3 it tested 20% higher than another android phone LG G2 with the exact same Snapdragon 800 hardware. 50% in another benchmark.

Imagine if they took those benchmark scores as the truth. Customers would have been tricked into thinking the wrong thing.
Google has bought a start-up that develops gesture-recognition software.
Flutter, founded three years ago in San Francisco, detects simple hand signals via webcam, using them to control apps such as iTunes and Netflix.
The acquisition has caused speculation that Google will integrate the technology, used by some of its rivals, into its ranges of Chromebook laptops and Nexus handheld devices.
The search giant has not released any details of the deal.
Gesture-recognition technology is widely used in gaming consoles, such as Nintendo's Wii and Microsoft's Xbox Kinect.
It is also used in some smart TVs, and Samsung recently introduced gesture recognition for its Galaxy S4 smartphone.
The phone's Air Gesture technology allows users to scroll through web pages, accept calls, and control music by waving their hands.
Widespread use
An expert told the BBC that despite Google's acquisition, it remained to be seen whether gesture recognition would become a mainstream technology.
"The more interface styles we can develop the better, but whether gesture recognition becomes the norm depends on how well it can be personalised and whether people embrace it," said Richard Picking, of Glyndwr University.
"It could be particularly useful as a tool for older people, or those with disabilities," he added.
Flutter was initially funded through Y Combinator, a company that nurtures start-ups.
'Rocket fuel'
Co-founder Navneet Dalal, who used to work at Google, announced the deal on Flutter's website.
"Today, we are thrilled to announce that we will be continuing our research at Google," the statement read.
"We're excited to add their rocket fuel to our journey."
Flutter said it would continue to support its current app.
