Video Demo Suggests HTC One X Tegra 3 Faster Than Snapdragon S4
A newly released video pits the two versions of the HTC One X against each other, the Tegra 3 sporting international variant and the Snapdragon S4 model headed to AT&T on May 6th. In the video the Tegra 3 boots up faster and comes out way ahead as both models run the AnTuTu benchmark test.
Aside from the awful techno music playing in the background, there are a few reasons for skepticism: the boot animations aren’t identical, as well as the message on the AT&T variant showing “upgrading Android” during both. Also, the Snapdragon One X was placed in airplane mode while the international Tegra 3 version was not.
Perhaps one notable disadvantage for the the AT&T device is it’s still pre-production, so this video would only really stand up if both phones were final devices on shipping software and both on or both off a network.
Either way, the benchmarks should be of little consequence, the AT&T variant of the HTC One X is more than adequate for every day use and will still outpace most devices on the market. The average user would never notice a difference and the differences between the two versions here are likely never to come up in the real world.
Still, it’s a fun video to watch, just don’t listen to the music.

the one on the left that is faster is actually the s4 because it is always clocked at 1.5 ghz and the tegra 3 in the current models are clocked at 1.3 ghz until the t33 comes out and will go up to 1.6ghz with this test it shows that the s4 crushes the tegra even though s4 is in a pre-production phone
