We did a check on the System information about the processor using Quadrant Standard. The information doesn’t seem to be reading it correctly but we know that it’s running at 1GHz. The actual processor should be a Dual-core 1GHz ARM Cortex-A9 processor, PowerVR,SGX540 GPU, TI OMAP4430 chipset.
Here is our result of running Quadrant Standard v1.17 to benchmark the phone. It scored 2254.
