HTC Desire 616 Benchmark & Gaming Performance

HTC Desire 616 benchmarkHTC Desire 616 benchmark performance was pretty decent as expected from its octa core processor and powerful GPU. Although it does have the powerful octa-core Mediatek MTK 6592 chipset. But for some reason HTC decided to down clock or under clock it to 1.4GHz from its default clock rate which is 1.7GHz and in some phones like Micromax Canvas Gold it is over clocked to 2GHz. As a result of that HTC Desire 616 scored a little less in benchmarks than those phones.

Micromax Canvas HD Plus Benchmark & Gaming Performance

micromax canvas hd plus antutu
Benchmark performance of Micromax Canvas HD Plus was decent. In one of the benchmarks, it even beat the Samsung Galaxy S4, in just one benchmark though. But, still not bad for a phone that costs only 12,000 Rupees. Antutu again mistook another budget phone as a high end smartphone just because of the powerful chipset inside it. As you can already tell by the image above

HTC Desire 516 Benchmark & Gaming Performance

HTC desire 516 benchmark performance (6)Phones with Snapdragon 200 chipsets either performs bad or very bad in benchmarks test. And that is understandable ’cause it’s a entry level chipset after all but HTC Desire 516 actually performed better with the same chipset. How? Software optimizations done by HTC over Android 4.3 Jellybean. The OS runs buttery smooth most of the time. Along with optimization HTC has also put some nasty restrictions too, but that i am going to leave for the gaming section.

Micromax Canvas Gold A300 Benchmark & Gaming Performance

canvas gold antutu
Since Micromax Canvas Gold A300 has an octa core processor and that too clocked at 2GHz. It is supposed to perform good in benchmarks. Looking at the price it’s available at in the market. I would call it respectable. In one particular benchmark though. The GFX bench/Geekbench, it didn’t perform well. But then again it was competing with pretty high end phones in that benchmark. It still tried its best. The phone gets a warm even while running benchmarks because benchmark tests that run at full HD resolution use more resouces. Hence, more heat.

Karbonn A50S Benchmark & Gaming Performance

Karbonn a50s
Karbonn A50S or Karbonn Smart A50S costs only a fraction of the smartphones with which it was competing in benchmarks. In benchmarks like Nenamark 2 it came right below Samsung Galaxy S2. A phone that costs more than 4 times of Karbonn A50S. And in antutu as you can see above in the photo above it scored more than 9000 points. That’s suprising right? But wait, it scored that much because of the Mediatek MTK MT6572 chipset. It is an old chipset and , hence it is optimized for the antutu benchmark. So, not so surprising.

New Far Cry 4 Trailer Has Some Desi Touch


You heard that? It’s Hindi. The trailer itself starts with the word ‘Namaste’ written in Devanagari Hindi. That’s surprising. This might be the first time i am seeing this much Hindi in a big budget video game. The last time i saw this much Hindi in a video game was in Uncharted 2 but it was written on sign boards. In Far Cry 4 however, there are soldiers literally speaking and shouting in Hindi.
