Many readers may be puzzled when they see this title. These two machines should have been "irrelevant". Why would they want to compare them? This is mainly because they all use the same SOC (the MX5S of MX2 is actually Exynos 4412). The two super mobile phones with Exynos 4412 1.6G+2G RAM undoubtedly represent the top level of mobile phone performance, and the battle between them is also full of fire.

Test environment

MX2: Flyme 2.0.1 (based on Android 4.1.1)

Galaxy Note II：Android 4.1.2

The performance compared in this paper is mainly theoretical testing, CPU general performance and GPU performance.

Theoretical test

The theoretical test will not be described in detail, for reference only.

There is not much difference between the two in terms of rabbit safety, but Note II has higher graphics performance, which is believed to be due to MX2's High resolution Reason for.

Geekbench， There is little difference.

The webpage Javascript tests Sunspider, with little difference (the lower the score, the better).

Nenamark， The resolution of this software will directly affect the score Therefore, MX2 is also relatively low.

GLBenchmark， At the same level.

In general, Note II and MX2 are at the same level both in terms of hardware specifications and actual theoretical scores, but most of them are just differences in resolution and test errors.

CPU general performance

CPU general performance test items include actual web page loading, file compression, game loading, etc. The following is a demonstration video

Summary

Page loading: horizontal.

File compression: Note II is much faster

Game loading: Each has its own advantages.

The overall performance is basically the same, and there is still much room for improvement in compression of MX2.

GPU performance

GPU performance is mainly based on the game measurement, which adopts the Crazy Car 7, NBA 2K13, and Top Speed Car 17 respectively. The following is the demonstration video（ The frame number test is only for reference. Opening the frame number test will affect the flow smoothness to a certain extent, so as to show the performance gap more intuitively ）

MX2

Galaxy Note II

Here is a special description of the problem of Wild Racing 7. As the game is not defined as high quality, it is not surprising that MX2 has advantages in loading speed, and special effects are missing in actual operation, Pay attention to the difference between the reflection of the car body and the fineness of the road surface. The top is Note II, and the bottom is MX2 (click to enlarge) 。

Summary

Wild drag racing 7: Note II special effect is fully open, not smooth. MX2 medium special effect, basically smooth.

NBA 2K13,: MX2 is basically smooth, a little bit stuck. Note II is smooth.

Extreme fast car 17: MX2 is not very smooth. Note II is smooth.

In general, the game performance of Note II is slightly better than that of MX2. Here, optimization and resolution are involved.

summary

After a series of tests, we were surprised to find that even compared with the original Samsung "divine oil" level optimized Note II, the MX2 is not inferior at all, and the performance of the MX5S is very eye-catching. Of course, MX2 still has many details to improve. For example, in terms of file compression, there is still much room for improvement in the special effects and fluency of some games. In the process of use, MX2 also has a large heating capacity. At present, MX2 is still in the stage of engineering beta, with great plasticity. When it was officially launched on December 19, we believe Meizu will let us see a more competitive dream.
