T-Mobile?s HTC Ville (One S) Shows Off NenaMark2 Benchmark ? Snapdragon S4 Doesn?t Fail To Impress

With all the hype surrounding quad-core processors, you would think dual-cores were nothing more than last year?s tech. Well, that?s definitely not the case. Just like Intel releases new and improved versions of their desktop processors (Core 2 Duo, Core i, 2nd generation Core i?s, etc.), Qualcomm is doing the same with their dual-core Snapdragons. Their new line of S4 processors (4th gen Snapdragons) will be making their way to a few new handsets in the comings months. Handsets like the T-Mobile bound HTC Ville ( HTC One S) that has posted a rather impressive NenaMark2 benchmark.

HTC Ville video as a refresher

While I?m excited to see what the Nvidia Tegra 3 brings in terms of performance for the HTC One X, dual-core handsets like the HTC One S shouldn?t be written off just because they?re utilizing less cores. In fact, some benchmarks are showing dual-core Snapdragon S4?s beating out the quad-core Tegra 3?s in some instances. Qualcomm?s S4?s are also utilizing a new, more power efficient 28nm architecture that aside from improving battery life, will make a device breathe flames out the micro USB port. Seems the ?core? race is looking like nothing more than the GHz race from a few years back, huh?
