I know this probably doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things, but I got an new S7 Edge in November after being forced to surrender my perfectly awesome Note 7. I decided today to run some benchmarks on it because it's performance has been questionable.
To qualify:
choppy transitions
choppy app switches
long app launch sequences
long load times for videos and download performance on LTE and 100Mb WiFi
It is performing worse than my old S6 Edge.
I closed all apps, set the High performance settings and benchmarked...
I was shocked by the results.
I ran GeekBench 4, AnTuTu, and 3DMark (which barely ran) and the results were consistent. (Quadrant errored out connecting to the servers) ~30% slower CPU scores, ~50% slower memory, 3DMark scores were horrid, and everything in between.

Has anyone else seen such behavior?
Can't see the images
Are you sure it's a real official S7 edge, not a counterfeit ?

I haven't posted enough to use external links I guess.
Yeah, I checked with the AnTuTu Validator and it is authentic Samsung bits.
You can look at the results on flickr (just remove the carriage returns)

You should try a factory reset or changing ROM, clean install
There might be some apps draining your performances

not worth it

as the title says i found it interesting Stock on I9000M JH2 runs faster than Stock I9000 according to this

A speedup of 3%.... No offence, but I can do nothing but laugh when I see excitement over such a marginal speed increase (especially in a benchmark).
It's like comparing a 1.03GHZ processor over a 1GHZ processor.
that's the point, it seems like the JH2 stock ROM is better optimized, after all it's the same hardware
(Fixed the percentage). 3% isn't high enough to be of statistical value though. All firmware gets faster, but 3% isn't likely to be noticeable..
Furthermore, the speed increase may have come because a function which is heavily used by the benchmark program has been optimised, whilst real apps may use it less.
It's typical for firmware to get faster, but a 3% increase probably has no real-life impact on productivity on a phone (until they accumulate). And it doesn't really say the i9000M is faster in all situations. It might only be in the benchmark.
Btw, whilst I am no fan of quadrant, which version of stock rom are you comparing with? A late version, or the one shipped in the box originally?
Either way, let us know when there are MAJOR noticeable differences maybe (10% perhaps), because I wonder if simply turning on MobileAP (and streaming some traffic through) is enough to affect the scores by a few percent..
5% margin of error
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
i think i have a problem.
i can only get a max of 1800 points in quadrant standard with revolution hd rom and setcpu with autodemand 245-1228.
why is this happening? i've done a factory default and the same.
Don't pay attention to these benchmarks... they tell you nothing. And noting wrong with that score, it's high enough, upgrading to ARHD 3.x might help.
If you are dumb enough to rate a phones performance on such bad benchmarks then..
Turn setCPU to performance
Restart your phone and kill all apps with task killer
Turn off sync/wifi
and update your rom maybe..
AR 2.0.11? AR 3.3 is already out...
quadrant scored really doesn't say a lot for the ROMS. you may have high 2000s scores but your battery lasts only have a day.. doesn't really means a thing
For me it was difficult to get consistent results with Quadrant.
Upgrading the app changed results dramatically.
You can run a benchmark now, and again in 5 minutes time and the results can be way different.
It was great at first but frustrating after a while.
For example: (on stock rom)

Then I updated the app (1773)
Then 12 minutes later (1813)
Obviously many factors are involved but as Foladko and Baste07 suggest - I wouldn't pay too much attention. It's not as cut and dry as for example overclocking a desktop PC.
Went into a Telco store. Cleared recent apps for all. 2 s5s had 28k antutu x score. 1 other one had a decent 35k one. Note they weren't overheating at all.

Demo edition <> edition you buy
Power saving is activated?
Sent from GT-I9500
Let's suppose you got 50,000 points on Antutu X. Would that suddenly justify your purchase? or would that make you sleep better at night? Trust me whether it's 25,000 or 50,000 it's not going to have any impact at all how the phone works. Judging a phone based on Antutu score is just wrong.
BTW, a benchmark which doesn't provide repeatable consistent result isn't worth it.
I do analyze benchmarks for a living (not these tiny consumer devices, but mission critical enterprise products). I can appreciate good benchmarks and we also understand why certain statistics are irrelevant or just simply wasteful.
28xxxx something with power saving on and a much better 36xxx something with it off.
I dont hold much stock in these things but it is a tool to play with none the less. :cyclops:
mine has a ~35,000 score
Possibly because it has some store demo stuff on there. I heard some store units ran different firmware than units that were sold, hence some store units were called SM-G900X
anyone else have issues with slow data when downloading anything or when using certain apps? though speedtest has always shown decent speeds, i've always noticed that downloading files or using apps like instagram or snapchat seem to take FOREVER to upload/download media. i ran an experiment this morning and have absolutely no idea wtf is going on but you can see the differences in download speed i'm talking about:
LTE speedtest results:

LTE right before i ran the speedtest above, here's my download speed for a video - a MERE 178 KB/s:
and here's me having connected to WiFi as soon as i got into the office, showing it's not a server issue where the above file is hosted:
should i enable/disable something? i've had to mess with disabling optimizing certain apps for battery consumption or whatever for random issues (notifications, not sync'ing, etc.) - could down-speeds be similarly affected with a random setting? FYI my 'bars'/reception show as full, on LTE, and speedtest results are quite high. i'm absolutely dumbfounded and because i'm currently taking an uber to/from the office (30mi each way), it's extremely frustrating as i'm on my phone the entire time.
TIA!
so no one? one bump before accepting the crappy speeds
I have the same problem with my galaxy s5 running the latest cm13 snapshot. I tried reverting back to stock and the data speeds were again normal (fast). But then i flashed back cyanogenmod and the problem continues... Stuck at 200kb/s
Hello equally angry and happy s7 edge users,
im facing some troubles with my s7 edge, i recently bought it from a second hand, when i first saw the phone i could notice it extremely slow so i decided to buy (i never lose a opportunity to break my head)
Phone was running on Latest November security update 8.0 Oreo
G935FXXS8ETK4_G935FUWT8ETCA_COB
Ultra slow to wake, almost impossible to use, freezes shows "system ui has stopped working"
yesterday after a few wipes and formats i installed
FloydQ_V6.0_Exynos8890
and MoRoKernel-AllInOne-CTK1-v8.6.1
to find the same mistake on android 10
SDcard change seems to help, but still fails at certain point, mostly on native ui windows
Write/read test shows the sequential speed with depression peaks to 200kb/s.
i dont know how to get rid of this trouble, ive tried a lot of things
hope someone can help, i will upload the logcat, Science!

Thanks to everyone F2FS system file seems to speed up the phone a little bit, i'm currently on Floyd V6.0 MoroKernel and MoroTWRP F2FSReady, still laggy at certain point but at least usable
What's the app you're using to test the speeds?

i thought those peaks were i/o faults, but i formated /data and /cache to f2fs and still remains.
