I fail to see the point of this thread. A forum thread is most certainly not a database for storing benchmark data, and that data itself is useless without any context. Unless you're comparing multiple ROMs, of the SF to other phones, the numbers are meaningless, and I see no comparisons being made here.
Now, if you file that data away, and present it again later in comparison with the numbers from the same tests on the official Froyo ROM (once it's released), then I will be somewhat interested. ;-)

Haters...
Stock 2.1 Rooted with Voodoo lag fix
Quadrant: 1780
Instead of tearing down, why not contribute? Post up benchmarks of other ROMs.
Then we can compare.
I didn't say this thread was only for box stock SF devices.
My fascinates screen gave me a boner. That seems to be a common occurence. Slap that on there with benchmarks. BTW, not calling u a liar but I have NEVER seen neocore above 55.7. And I have a captivate as well,( well had). Odd. I'm all for it. I don't see why not, put up all the benchmarks from all the different ROMS.

benchmarks mean very little on this phone. you can get huge quadrant scores from one of the old overclock voodoo kernels but they will not stand up to the newer non oc kernels in everyday use.
I found out the performance of HTML5 is quite impressive on SGSIII stock browser... not that I use it frequently or that HTML5 is that prevalent even now.. I am happy my flash is still supported across all browsers.
Dolphin does beat it (469) but at a score of 435 it beats Opera12.01 (406) and Chrome as well (390)..
anyone a idea why samsung s3 i9305 have problems playing html5 videos? When i launch a video i can't see any picture, only sound is played. Also tried another html5 player app, but same problem.
Rom: cyanogenmod 10.2
(i can't post to the special thread "cyaogenmod" becaus auf newbie restrictions)

Now I am on Galaxy Note II and its stock browser does better than chrome, dolphin and Opera.
i got 434 with default browser and 419 with dolphin
Pardus rom Android 4.1.2
the html5test is just a stadard compliance test
it has nothing to do with performance and smoothness
Hello All
In post #19 I have an update with tests of Beta versions of most popular browsers.
I've been reading yesterday a browser comparison between Chrome, Firefox, IE and Opera on both Windows and Linux platforms and I've decided to do something similar for Galaxy Note 2.
Now for some starting info:
Rom - Phoenix v13
Kernel - Perseus 36.3
OC - yes, 1.8Ghz, GPU untouched, a bit of undervolt also.
The system is fairly pure, default speedups as found in Phoenix installed. Rom is ODEXED
Not much apps installed.
Contenders: all currently downloaded from Playstore
- Samsung Browser
- Chrome 28.0.1500
- Firefox 22.0
- Opera 15.0.1162
- Maxthon 4.0.6.2000 B2844
They were all put under the following tests:
- HTML5 Test - Link
- HTML5 Benchmark - Link - Basically a 2D game benchmark.
- Octane - Link
- Browsermark 2.0 - Link
- Mazesolver (Microsoft) - Link
- Lawnmark (Microsoft) - Link
There is a story about that benchmark involving cheating as stated here but it does not affect my comparison.
- Peacekeeper - Link
- Sunspider 1.0 - Link
- V8 Benchmark (succeeded by Octane but still valid and does offer different results) - Link
- Dromaeo - Link - be carefull, it takes about 20 minutes or more to complete.
So off to results:
...........XXXXX................Stock browser.....Chrome (+%).........Firefox (+%).........Opera (+%)..........Maxthon (+%)......Dolphin (+%)........UC (+%)
HTML 5 Test.................434.....................410 (94%).............422 (97%).............428 (98.6%).........419 (96.5%).......419 (96%).............404 (93%)..........more is better

*1 - this result is a strange one since Firefox is the only browser that allowed almost all videos to play, there were some problems with buffering so the videos skipped some but they worked, not one other browser did. So I don't understand why the score is so low, maybe other parts were bad.
*2 and *3 - in both cases browsers simply closed without any error sometime after starting benchmark (less than 3 minutes), consecutive tries resulted in closing few seconds after starting benchmark. Both browsers had to be fully restarted (as in killed in apps manager or by phone restart)
HTML5 test is only a measure of how well browsers conform to HTML standard, somewhat like old ACID3 test.
Now, HTML5 Benchmark on stock and Maxthon were a slideshow, <2 fps and it took more than 30 minutes to complete. I have no idea why as it is a simple 2D platform game and other browsers run quite well even up to 60 fps in case of Firefox.
Mazesolver had to be run more than 10 times for every settings and median calculated because tests were prone to big variations. As such I would mark that test as unreliable. Lawnmark, despite being unfairly skewed for IE 10/11 is an equal oportunity test for other browsers, so the results "stay"
To compare browsers I will count Octane, Browsermark, Peacekeeper, Sunspider, V8 and Dromaeo benchmarks.
Results:
Chrome is on average 10,43% faster than Stock Browser
Firefox is on average 4.48% slower than Stock Browser
Opera is on average 14,33% faster than Stock Browser
Maxthon is on average 4.43% slower than Stock Browser
Dolphin is on average 4.23% slower than Stock Browser
UC Browser is on average 5.06% slower than Stock Browser
And the Winner is ....... Opera
Now all those results should also be counted against power consumption and here is where things change a lot. I started those test with full battery and all the browsers did the same amount of work actually doing those tests. The problem is that while Chrome, Stock, Maxthon and Firefox required roughly the same amount of power, Opera used more than twice that. I'm attaching screenshots of those results.

On other topic, I think almost 6 hours of screen on time with almost all that time CPU was working full tilt and screen was @100% is a great result. There were only short times when I left the phone to cool off, mostly with screen on but not working hard
Any comments or questions, just ask
Update for Naked Browser - the scores were in order: 2470 (103%), 2019 (80%), 824 (94%), 1087 (104.5%), 2729 (101.4%) and 168.69 (101%)
Total score for it: Naked Browser is on average 4.18% slower than Stock Browser
Next Boat Browser - the scores were in order: 2483 (103%), 2109 (83%), 850 (97%), 909 (87%), 2479 (92%), 165.98 (99%)
Total score for it: Boat Browser is on average 2.16% slower than Stock Browser
ONE Browser - the scores were in order: 2342 (97.5%), 2097 (83%), 680 (78%),1801 (173%), 1280 (47.5%), 166.62 (99.7%)
Total score for it: ONE Browser is on average 27.88% slower than Stock Browser
From all those scores of different browsers it's apparent that some of the use a common rendering engine (Firefox, Maxthon, Dolphin, UC and Naked and probably Boat too) because their results are within 1% of each other while Samsung, Opera and Chrome are much different. So between those above you can choose based on features set that they have because performance is about equal.
If you are interested in modern games based on HTML5 code, Firefox and One browsers are the way to go with Chrome and Opera about 30% slower. HTML5 Benchmark which I did not include in final score (but tested all browsers with) shows great disparity between browsers.
The scores:
Stock : 43 points
Chrome : 1911 points
Firefox : 2622 points
Opera : 2043 points
Maxthon : 77 points
Dolphin : 107 points
Naked : 96 points
UC : 113 points
Boat : 78 points
ONE : 3041 points
I do not understand how it's possible to get a 30 times difference in modern times in a fairly important category but there you have it. I hope it's not similar to Microsoft's Lawnmark benchmark that before every iteration followed (as is standard for some reason) 4ms pause while IE 10 and 11 allowed for "no pause" policy. The results - IE 10/11 finished in 15 seconds, other browsers took upwards of 10 minutes. The funny thing is, some Chrome addicts took the benchmark code and set a level playing field by removing the wait time for every browser, and lo and behold, IE was 2 times slower than Firefox and 3 times slower than Opera with Chrome somewhere in the middle.
It gives some thoughts as in both cases (HTML5 benchmark and Lawnmark) after benchmark run, the phone / cpu is completely cool. I do not at the moment have any monitoring app installed, but CoolTool would be easy to use to verify that.
In light of recent "strange" benchmark results of newer Intel chips that happend to be Intel compiler using a flaw in Antutu benchmark code all benchmark results can be suspected.
You can argue that compiler optimisations are the lifeblood of fast computing, but when you optimize code by hand to get best score in a benchmark, it's not clean fight. Because no other app is going to have the same optimizations so the benchmark result is misleading to the real life performance of the hardware. All that on top of usefullness/uselessness of benchmarks in the whole
And yet non of these browsers run as smoothly as the stock samsung browser when scrolling and zooming on any web page...
Where is dolphin?
True, Stock is smooth as butter, but there are no benchmarks that test smoothness so that conclusion is up to the user. I may test dolphin but there will be no power use tests for it because I would not be able to get comparable data.
Any other requests for browsers?

2nd Dolphin and Naked Browser.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
I prefer the stock browser regardless of the statistics.
Nice comparison! I personally switch between Firefox and 'UC Browser'.
I find UC Browser really good for full screen/desktop content, but some websites don't display correctly.
I think I'm leaning towards boat - gestures are really helpful on Note 2 than it is on other phones. The only thing I miss is inverted browsing. There's a night mode which is in many ways better than inverted browsing, but in many sites it's not useable compared to the proper inverted browsing.
Also obviously much better control over flash plugins and everything. Seriously, give it a go.

Can't test naked browser as it's not available for download in Poland (I mean free version). Paid is available but I won't buy it just to test it. (Or you can share .apk)
Dolphin is allready tested, I will update results later.

Nice benchmarks!
I'd like to see Boat too.
Have been using it for some time and I really like it. It feels both fast and smooth!
Browser benchmarks give points for data preloading, using proxies, and other items like ability to load an HTML5 video placeholder.
Benchmarks do not evaluate browser integrity.
Naked Browser does not preload data, send your data through a proxy, or use resources on things like HTML5 video placeholders.

Newer versions of Stock Browser (ICS+) preload web site data by default.
Naked Browser does not preload data. [As developer of Naked Browser I have scoured multiple versions of Stock Browser source code.]
The greater issue is Android web browser integrity. It turns out that even Firefox/Opera/Chrome are suspect.
Spying not only violates privacy but wastes battery, bandwidth, and CPU.

I agree, I also do not like to waste bandwidth and battery. On the other hand I do like to quickly open subpages..... in the end I will go with saving money For now If I may ask, on what code is Your browser based (mostly?) and is there any hope of porting this great speed in HTML5 execution (like in Firefox or One browsers) ?

I wrote it from scratch but looked at stock, Zirco, Firefox, and all available code. It uses WebView on your device so HTML5 depends on how much capability Google WebView has on your device.
Almost every Android web browser including mainstream ones are spyware. This is why I made Naked Browser. Here is the XDA thread for it if you want to talk more about it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1929663
Next to stock the only browser comes close to it for smoothness is Mozilla. But wish it had an exit option and full screen
Tried them all. Naked is alright, but the UI is awkward!

Some thoughts are neccessary here:
1. I am no fan of Firefox, but in both Browsermark and Peacekeeper benchmarks it was the only benchmark to actually display most of the tests correctly as in playing videos, displaying all 3D content or correctly resizing webpages during tests.
2. There is sometimes large difference in speed when requesting desktop versions of webpage ns mobile (even if on the first glance they look the same) and it can affect benchmark results. For example HTML5 benchmark on some browsers takes 1/2 screen, on others is resized to fit and then on others don't even fit the screen. I tried to keep things equal by manually resizing the "game window" to fit the screen but I do not know the impact of manual resize on the score. The other thing is benchmarks in portrait and landscape mode again differ, sometimes by 5-10%, as such all results are from benchmarks run in portrait mode.
3. Dromaeo benchmark is "made by Mozilla" and curiously it shows the worst scores on Firefox (both mobile and desktop versions as tested on my laptop PC). Results are displayed in "runs/s" so it should read that "the higher the better", my PC scores over 450 in Firefox and over 600 in Chrome so it should be ok. Still, why does Firefox score so low, when in other Java Script benchmarks it is one of the fastest, I have no idea.
To compare browsers I will count Octane, Browsermark, Peacekeeper, Sunspider, V8 and Dromaeo benchmarks.
Chrome is on average 10,43% faster than Stock Browser
Chrome beta is on average 11.27% faster than Stock Browser
Chrome beta with experimental options turned on is on average 14,88% faster than Stock Browser
Opera beta is on average 16.21% faster than Stock Browser
Dolphin beta is on average 0.5% faster than Stock Browser
Firefox beta is on average 3.17% faster than Stock Browser
Personally on my Note 2 I would leave 3 browsers - Stock (smooooth), Opera (faaaast) and Firefox (compatible!!), although I would miss great sync options offered by Chrome. Naked browser, while a great effort, has to be worked on some more to win, either of compatibility, interface or speed, because for now the only thing that speaks for it is that it does not spy on us (which I can not test anyway )
And the winner is........... still Opera but by much smaller margin
Excellent, thanks for testing them out for us.
