A lot of people including me wanted to know about the mysteries of the GPU of this laptop. Since it’s available at a huge discount on Amazon India’s website right now. And what better way to do something than to do it yourself. So, I bought it to find out.
What do you get when you learn from your mistakes? Improvement. What do you get when you put Snapdragon 650 inside a phone? you get a roaring dragon of a phone. Snapdragon has never really been true to its name when it comes to mid range processors but this time they have learned from their mistakes and made a beast of a processor.
HTC Desire comes with Mediatek 6752 which consists of octa-core Cortex A53 processors clocked at 1.7GHz and the reason why it is currently the king in lower mid-range chip-sets in terms of performance, Mali T760 GPU. So obviously it’s benchmark performance would be good too.
This phone’s processor is under clocked for some reason, i don’t know why they didn’t just give the Mediatek 6752 instead of 6752M but since it has an HD display, you can expect this phone’s benchmark performance to be close to phones like HTC Desire 820s, Sony Xperia C4, Xperia C5 Ultra.
Benchmark performance of Sony Xperia M5 was pretty bad, a test didn’t even run and for some reason, no matter how many times i tried. Sony Xperia M5 only scored just around 40,000 points in Antutu.
Benchmark performance of Sony Xperia C5 Ultra is just like Xperia C4 which is to be expected ’cause both the phones have the exact same chip-set. Mediatek 6752 is a pretty powerful chip-set but it isn’t powerful enough for 1080p displays you can read more about this in the gaming section below.
It’s been a long time coming. First Lenovo phone that i wanted to buy was Lenovo Vibe X2. For some reason, didn’t buy it. Second Lenovo phone that i wanted to buy was Lenovo A7000, wasn’t able to buy it in time. I guess this is what they call ‘third time lucky’.
