Default Will GNexus run smoother than the tmobile SGS2 because?

of hardware acceleration? Would it make the phone faster and smoother than the SGS2 from tmobile?

I would like to think so because Google will optimize the software specifically for that hardware and they won't stop updating till they get it right. Is the GS2 capable of being faster than the GN? Yes it is, it all just depends on how well the software is optimized for the hardware its on.

Chances are yes
The t mo gs II has a disgusting processor (dont flame me for that)
Ti omap should be better if not on par to the exynos which is better than the snapdragon u guys have
G nexus is a NEXUS (keyword) so it will definitely run really smooth
And if ics does have hardware accel google has officialy incorperated god mode into android

The S3 processor isn't disgusting, but it definitely isn't gonna out perform the Exynos or Texas Instrument. I can't keep stressing the fact about optimization. If the software is optimized well then our phone will be able to compete. Have you ever played with a Windows Phone 7 phone? The phone's hardware is out of date, but the phone's UI and transitions perform excellent. Our hardware is very capable of the same exact things as the GN.

Actually the s3 outperforms the ti processor. Ti processors don't have a lot of features. The reason its so smooth is because it's using the same gpu as the ipad2. Ti dual core processors have been use in motorola phones. Before they were quite underwhelming even when they had stock. To be precise exynos and s3 are quite on par with each other. Asynchronous technology in processor can complete task faster if programmed correctly. Use one processor as a garbage/data collector use the other processor to complete task. When two processors are perfectly in sync you waste more energy then what you would need. Thus draining your precious battery life. The gpu department has slightly better features as well. The Adreno 220 is a better rendering and shaders than the Mali 400. Mali 400 is still a more powerful gpu though. They all have their pros and cons though so no you won't see a difference if you have optimized software for you phone.

This is well written.

Didn't cm7 have some sort of gpu update on the g2 phone? I would assume if I'm right on this it would be done here as well?
