GFXBench 2.7 T-Rex HD C24Z16 - Offscreen (1080p):

Something to add - Snapdragon 800 vs PC GPUs:
According to Bloomberg, Microsoft will be using Snapdragon 800 in their next Surface RT tablet.
There have also been rumours that the successor to the Nexus 7 will be using a Qualcomm chip, and not Tegra 4.
It would appear that NVIDIA might not get the support that Tegra 4 that they would have hoped for. Superior hardware is one of the primary advantages the Nvidia Shield offered over the Playstation Vita and Nintendo 3DS, but with Snapdragon 800 devices entering the market in the coming months, a gamer might be better off skipping the Shield.
A gamer could always use a controller dock with a Snapdragon 800 device (like the one in the picture) to make up for the lack of physical controls.
There are also additional 3rd party controllers, so this is not limited to Samsung.

i like that controller but the screen look heavier than the controller
Until now I usually bought them off contract since the service I had with Vodafone was more than enough and allowed me that freedom. However since I bough the Arc S (a year and a half ago) I see myself using more and more apps (meaning I'm constantly running out of space on the Arc S), being more reliant on the Internet every time I use my phone, speaking with people from other services (a contract would be a huge help in this are since it would allow free sms and calls to other networks) thus I'm strongly considering a contract, which is more expensive but it does allow to buy a phone with some proper discount :P
Â
My only real concern is battery life, which left me kinda of burnt on the Arc S. Other than that I can wait until the end of year, without any major issue.

Battery life is definitely a concern for most devices on the market. Motorola's Moto X phone will have a priority on battery life, so that might be a possibility.
Keeping somewhat on-topic:
The OPPO Find 7 is said to have a 4000mAh battery. This means one of two things.
1. The Snapdragon 800 is not as power friendly as Qualcomm would like us to believe.
2. The OPPO Find 7 will have amazing battery life.
For further reference, the phone variant of Qualcomm's MDP for Snapdragon 800 uses a 1,500mAh battery.
[QUOTE="NVIDIATI"][QUOTE="Desmonic"]Actually that Oppo Find 7 sounds awesome for my personal tastes :P Any release date on that bad boy? Just hope it comes a bit sooner to Europe this time around. Desmonic
Nothing official just yet, but apparently it will release mid September.
Here are the unconfirmed specifications:

Cool. Impressive stuff (well, compared to my little old Arc S it is hehe). And dat battery! Wow! How was the Find 5 software wise? Was it just a stock Android? If so, that would be awesome.The original Find 5 had a skin over 4.1.1, but recently OPPO's Facebook page posted this...
"One of our Ofans had this idea of a Google Edition of Find 5. Would you like to see it become a reality? Â http://bit.ly/Find5Nexus"Â
Note, the image is fan made.
A number of the comments are also asking for a Find 7 Google edition.
So with any luck, this will solve possible software concerns for the Find 7.
