Galaxy S 4: Octa-Core vs Quad-Core | Pocketnow

The Galaxy S 4. It's a name that commands respect: one that strikes fear into the hearts of other smartphones, and incites envy in the eyes of would-be buyers. As our full review reinforces, it's a name that represents one of the best Android smartphones you can buy today. But the Galaxy S 4 isn't just one phone: it's a device family comprised of many globally-specific variants. The SPH-L720 we reviewed last week was built especially for the American carrier Sprint, and while it's functionally identical to the other American operator variants, it has significantly less in common with its most-popular global sibling, the GT-I9500. The predominant distinction between them is the SoC, which on the 9500 is the much-talked-about Exynos 5 Octa, Samsung's 28nm "eight-core" unit boasting a pair of Cortex quad-core CPUs lashed together. Due to an assumed shortfall in Samsung's ability to create the LTE-capable Octa SoCs, the manufacturer opted to ship American units with the Snapdragon 600 instead, and indeed, that's what our Sprint friend here is packing. If you're wondering just how much difference an Exynos "octa-core" heartbeat makes when compared to one of Qualcomm's latest quad-core processors, you've come to the right place. Join us in the video above for a comparison of the GT-I9500 and the SPH-L720. We'll tour the hardware packed inside, the performance of the software on each unit, and we'll even talk battery life and camera to get you as close as possible to answering the question "which of these should I be thinking of blowing a few Benjamins on?" (Spoiler alert: if you're an American, it's probably the cheaper one.)

We didn't catch it until after the upload.)
