Ladies and gentlemen, we're now firmly into October territory, and if we
take it for granted that Google will honor the tradition it started
with the original Nexus 4, we can also take it for granted that the anxiously-awaited Nexus X
is also right around the corner. This being a high-profile device, it's
no surprise that sightings of it in the wild are getting closer and
closer to becoming a daily occurrence. Today's fix includes an early
peek into performance, thanks to a Nexus X Geekbench pass.
Also
known as the Motorola "Shamu" (and Nexus 6), the next affordable
flagship device from Google is expected to be the biggest of the Nexus
line yet, at 5.9-inches. Despite some resistance from the power user
crowd, so far it seems like Google will also be going for a Quad HD
(1440 x 2560) resolution display, though the aforementioned benchmark
pass does not offer a direct clue to that. What it does offer is the
scores achieved by the Android L-touting, Snapdragon 805-powered (3GB
RAM) Nexus X, and those are not too far ahead from the LG G3's, which may suggest that we're, indeed, looking at a QHD panel (those have an adverse effect on performance).
Quad
HD or not, the fact is that the score the next Nexus achieved is pretty
impressive, and basically puts it at the very top of the food chain, at
least according to Geekbench. We say basically, because when it comes
to single-threaded performance, the Nexus X still is out-muscled by the iPhone 6. It's also worth pointing out that early Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Geekben
results are very much comparable to the upcoming Google device. Check
out the results below and see how they compare against the competition.
