The ASUS PadFone scored 5,057 and a Sunspider score of 1,917ms, putting it above the HTC... [Read More]

Timothy's Avatar

SCH-I535 is the Verizon Galaxy S III and it has popped up on Nenmark benchmark right before it debuts in June. Benchmarked early yesterday, it shows that the device will not have the Exynos processor, but the dual-core LTE Snapdragon S4, which isn't a slouch.
