I take it those results are pretty good for a phone with a HD display yes?

The benchmarks force the phone to run at a certain resolution, the Galaxy Note managed higher scores despite having a 1280x800 display and being clocked lower at 1.4GHz.

I also run the benchmarks again, using the latest firmware available (6.0.A.3.62), here are the results:

And my Xperia S also underwent a couple of charging cycles by now, plus it has been used under "production" conditions. I have to say that I am surprised, I was expecting the battery to last less, given the huge screen... After more than 13 hours using during a for me "regular" workday (20 minutes phone calls, a couple of SMS, checking mails set to every 15 mins, listening to about 45 mins of music, browsing for maybe 60 minutes), the battery is still somewhere around 66%. To be fair, 3G was turned off, this for sure makes a difference:

@rog - is the battery widget a stock Sony one as seen in the UI video on the last page? |

I am, even though it is too big for my taste. Will switch to a smaller one soon

Do you mean compared to something like the Arc or do you prefer smaller phones? That is the only thing that I worry about - how do you find it compared to the svelteness of the arc? |

@rog:
The Xperia S have that fast charging thing? And file transfer speed, how is it? Try transfering 2 Gb of files to it using a 1.0 USB port, if you can. And I saw that you made a battery test. Would you mind doing a stress test? Turn on BT, Wifi, set screen brightness to 65% (+ or -), listen to 2 hours to music (You don't need to listen, just let it playing), install some background apps, and browse about 2 hours (if the battery last this long).
Off course, you don't need if you don't have time, but if you have, please do.
I don't get people. Never Have, never will. |

Perhaps if your network has very poor 3G coverage. Where I live, I have not noticed any difference with any phone I have used to date (currently X10 mini). |

@Tsepz_GP,

Lower resolution = better score, higher res = lower score, same specs. If it were true that the benchmark software would somehow force change the resolution( i am hearing this for the first time, if its true then my apologies), then all 3 should have gotten same score.

That video is from last year, thats the old Quadrant, Quadrant2.0 has been optimized to work at a certain res, AnTuTu as well, the Galaxy Note despite its huge 1280x800 res has managed to get higher scores than the GS2 despite being on the same chip on both AnTuTu and Quadrant2.0.
I'll try find more details on them when i get back from uni this afternoon, and post them here.

Why is it comparing N8 video to Xperia S?? The Xperia S will no doubt be better as it has 1080p the N8 does not. Why did they not compare say 1080p video from iphone 4S or GS2?? I don't get that

@ Felimenta97: afaik, it will be fast- chargeable as soon as the chargers are available.
Here is the battery situation after more than one day:
