equally like i said Tegra+ is just the best yield out of T3 plus LTE, its variant 3 in the current T3s used on the One X

We already matched T3+ GPU with faux kernel

Oh right thanks :P

Ok the media is taking notice, i expect some outlets to review the new update too

The Verge: All HTC One X and One S devices to get new menu button option

Anandtech: AT&T's HTC One X Gets Updated, Changes Task Switcher Button, Coming to all One S and X Devices

it seems the AT&T variant did not receive Sense 4.1? and the new Rosie?

(not listed in the changelog where for the T3 One X improved UI is mentioned)

also this is a nice read

more nice reads, but don't panic lol

unlike the old benchs had you believes

check the graphs properly you will notice all the GPUs right now are so far off, the T3 is easily able to match the SGS3 and its GPU due to its shader power, what's surprising however is the Adreno225

those on faux kernels will score better due to GPU unlock, more like the offscreen infinity scores

it all goes to show how the T3 is completely non linear when it comes to benchs, the GPU is very strong in some areas and weak in others and hence the strange results, surprisingly it beats the SGS3 in polygon rates!

Quote:

The Mali-400/MP4 continues to be the fill rate king, outpacing NVIDIA's Tegra 3 by over 50%. The advantage doesn't extend however to the triangle tests, expressing a key weakness in the Mali-400/MP4 architecture: significantly ratchet up polygon counts and performance falls flat. Remember that Mali-400 isn't a unified shader architecture, and explicitly features more pixel shader hardware than vertex shader hardware. Qualcomm inches ahead in the vertex and fragment lit triangle throughput tests, although NVIDIA remains quite competitive. Both the Mali-400 and SGX 540 don't do well here.

Quote:

The classic results once again show us that for lighter workloads, all of the modern GPUs (Mali 400, Adreno 225, Tegra 3) are sufficient. At lower polygon counts, even the latest Mali 400 can hit nearly 60 fps at 1080p.

The A5 has a significant fill rate advantage, however triangle throughput ranges from middle of the road to barely in the lead. In many cases NVIDIA's Tegra 3 or Qualcomm's S4 pulls ahead in triangle throughput

Nvidia Making Millions From Sale of Google's Nexus 7 Tablet

Google's Nexus 7 Bringing $75M to Nvidia in 2H12 Alone

Quote:

Currently Nvidia charges around $25 for each Tegra 3 chip. That means the company will earn revenues close to $75 million USD just thorough its Nexus 7 orders alone in the second half of 2012. Profits from the orders are expected to reach around $10 million USD in that time period.
