Closest thing I know of is the Anandtech review showing roughly 30% reduction in storage speed versus the LG G4. They both have the same make and model NAND, however the G4 isn't running Android 6 yet. No telling what the effect on CPU performance or general usability is though.

There's also a user on Reddit that was comparing Geekbench scores with various roms and kernels, but they've yet to compare stock rom encrypted vs stock rom unencrypted.

Just tested my brand new Nexus 5x and another one I got for my wife. I updated each to 6.0.1 MMB29P, then did a factory reset. Then logged in on each with my google account, updated all default stock apps and ONLY installed antutu.

The Antutu scores are as follows, both are stock 6.0.1 MMB29P

Build Date 9/16 - 72502 (this screen, whites have a pink tone)

Build Date 10/16 - 71823 (this one has a warmer screen)

Once an USB cable arrives, I will unlock each boot, install elementalx, factory reset, and test again so we can see what effect no encryption has on this.

Yeah, things are gonna turn crazy in the performance field when the new mid 2016 midrange phones with SD650 and SD652 hit the market giving more power than 2015 high end devices for half the price

Enviado desde mi Nexus 5X mediante Tapatalk
[Nexus 5X General] bblzd:
Most Antutu results you see in this thread with stock devices are 75k+ with the 5x, your 56000 score must have been with a hot device. With modified software many are seeing 100K+.

The 650 and 652 are actually lower end versions of the 808 and 810. They use 28nm (versus 20nm) process and will use more battery and generate more heat. The 808 is better than the 650 in every way.

[Nexus 5X General] jonup:
The way you get into these high scores is by disabling fsync. This is not recommended for daily use due to risk of data loss. So don't credit these custom ROMs too much. Stock ROM will score within the margin of error.

Just my 2c for what it's worth
[Nexus 5X General] Humpus:

No idea if there's something wrong with my 5X, but so far I'm not impressed.
[Nexus 5X General] bblzd:
That would be because synthetic benchmarking performance is not a smart phone's primary purpose. Also higher synthetic benchmark performance does not always equal higher performance in real world scenarios.
[Nexus 5X General] Harthouse:
AnTuTu is not worth to mention... I'm coming from S6 and must say, I am satisfied with N5X, in most situations. AnTuTu results are 51000-53000 (on S6 are 81000-83000), on stock rom, without tweaks. Smoothness, fluidness and good response are advantages comparing to S6. S6 has strong build quality and that is his only advantage, believe me!!! One thing boring me on N5X and that is bad plastic build quality, as I said...

QQ regarding this topic

I'm wondering if having more / less points of antutu is relevant or not, today, most of the manufacturers recognized that they use tricks on benchmark measures.

We know that Google doesn't include any kind of software to trick those measures, plus, Google is focus on earn performance by optimization, well, at the end, is the user experience what counts, and a lightweight optimized OS is better than a phone full of features.

My advice is, do not stress on how many points u will obtain from Antutu, enjoy your phone!! Nexus 5x is a great phone!

Plastic? yeap, so what's the problem? honestly... does it make any difference beside a better look?

2Gigs? there's no app in the market right now that requires more than 1g of space, not even 512megs on memory

808? you got a hexacore CPU on a pure android env!!! and that's huge diff, cause any other phone will need more power to move not just android, but also the crappy interface made by Samsung, LG, Sony, etc... pure android is always better

Again, its pointless to worry about points or if my phone has a higher score than the S6, ENJOY your phone! Google made it for you!! real value is not on the hardware features (Apple is always behind on hardware and people still thinks that the iphone is better), is on the OS and how it takes advantage of it...

Greetings
[Nexus 5X General] jonup:
You are dazed and confused. Your post is full of inaccurate information, but at least you are happy with your 5x.
[Nexus 5X General] johelrc:
Let me explain my self better :)

Doesn't matter if your hardware is top, if the software that controls the hardware behind is poorly made, and I'm sure that Google (which is well known for doing quality products and hires the best engineers) made better soft products than Samsung, Huawei, Lenovo, Sony, etc....

I'm now convinced that Antutu benchmarking test is useless, why?, cause you are measuring hardware performance! h a r d w a r e, and that's make no difference if the code behind is crappy.. sample, when u got a code that executes the same task over and over, is faster (for the developer of course) just to "copy and paste" that code from one place to another as many times is needed... resulting in a bigger code side, and requiring more space on memory (code segment usually, but here, on Android is Java (byte code), so the end code is even bigger!!), but, if you decide to create a method for that process.. and just call it when you need.. the resulting compiled code is better, and smaller... but sadly, most of the crappy developers outside takes the path of the lazy guy, by just coping and pasting...

A crappy code doesn't understand.. "oh! I'm running on top tech, so I should perform better!" , that's why people loves Nexus... well usually people who knows what means having "google" branding in the back of the phone.. cause that name usually means quality of SOFTWARE...

But if you need a more "low" sample, tell you this... look at Windows and Linux... (when Linux use to work better than Windows on old hardware :D )...

I expect a good product on the nexus... in terms of performance and balancing... i don't want a good looking phone full of crappy preinstalled soft...

Again... is better to enjoy the phone instead of waste time on benchmark soft.

Greetings :)
[Nexus 5X General] EeZeEpEe:
Seriously. It's like a pissing contest. "How far can you go!?!" Haha.[emoji1]
[Nexus 5X General] jonup:
If Antutu simply measured h a r d w a r e, how do you explain that different rom/kernel setups score wildly ranging scores on the same phone. Antutu is extremely helpful, just like many other benchmarks, for tuning/testing kernels and roms., esp when maintaining other factors constant such as thermal throttle, governor behavior, etc. So before you start making empty generalizations, see what devs and their testers have to say. Benchmarks are more than a phallus measuring contest. If benchmarks do not bring any value to you, don't use them, stay away from benchmark threads, and enjoy the roms and kernels that have been developed for you using benchmarks like these to tune their performance.
[Nexus 5X General] Sn0w0nS:
Only got 33000. That can't be right. Right?
[Nexus 5X General] jonup:
More than likely your device was heavily throttled. So try mitigating throttling and try again.
[Nexus 5X General] johelrc:
pissing contest!!! hahaha ok.. let's continue..

Kernel is just a hardware manager, its designed to manage the way that the hardware resource is assigned to a program, and also how the resource governance (killing, memory allocation, clock speed, etc). So is a common practice to tweak the kernel to "unleash" clock limitations. That's why you got "better" results, in reality what you see is just the kernel "unleashing" the clock speed, and using probably a "better" resource manager...

Now, cpu's and memory restrictions (# of cores used, memory speed, cpu speed, etc) added by the kernel are there for a reason... and my tough is that Google wants to fit Android to many devices as possible, so, having an specific kernel per phone is a good idea.... but careful! some of those restrictions are there to ensure the well behave of the phone, and must of the time overclocking and other hardware tweaks use to hit the phone lifetime.

I usually recommend to use a custom kernel with no overclocking or hardware tweaks alike it.

Greetings
[Nexus 5X General] Joms_US:
Antutu 6 and higher is worthless due to changes in score system. It favors phone with crippled display like iPhones and one with fast graphics like Adreno 530 and Power VR. How the hell an iPhone 6 with sub 60K score on Antutu 5.X became 120K+ on Antutu 6+ is totally BS. You compare two Nexus 5X phones with any benchmark tool is totally useful and valid OTOH.

[Nexus 5X General] jonup:
Eliminate clock fluctuation and thermal throttle. You should be getting consistent scores within a couple of thousands of points every time. And your score won't be as useless as it is now or as many ignorant people, in a benchmark threat, claim benchmark to be.

I haven't run the benchmark for a while but here are a couple back to back runs with only 2-3% variance, likely to minor throttle:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=65771303
[Nexus 5X General] noky76:
Can you explain better?
[Nexus 5X General] jonup:
Set min/max freq to the same value, preferably the max freq and eliminate thermal throttling - be it by sticking the phone in the freezer, editing thermal file, etc.

The intend is to keep as many parameters constant to obtain consistent results. Benchmarks are not real world scenario, so before for someone decides to comment on that save you effort. The point is get consistent test environment to have comparable results over different setups. Once you the potential performance you can dial in throttle and governor.

Just my 2 pennies.

Edit: yes, I do have devices running min/max freq set on max all the time. Effect on battery life is marginal.

Been thinking about getting the new Nexus 6P yesterday had the money in my pocket and walked out without it..

Think i prefer my Shamu to be honest...

Anyone else upgraded what did you think i was thinking slightly slimmer would be better but i'm not so sure now...
[Nexus 6  General] doitright:
I actually feel that it is a step backwards. Yeah sure, its a "64bit" and can fix up the disk encryption performance problems, but overall, the SD810 is actually WEAKER than the 805. I *certainly* wouldn't spend any money to switch over, especially going from a premium brand like Motorola (and yes, it is still a premium brand) to a bottom rung like Huawei.

Now if everybody had gotten their a**es in gear and made this an SD820, then I would really be in a situation of regretting having purchased the 805 and not just holding onto the 8260A for a few more months. I will not buy a new phone every year -- 2 year min lifespan for me.
[Nexus 6  General] imnuts:

[Nexus 6  General] Face_Plant:
The 6P looks like a really nice phone, but there are 5 things stopping me from buying one:

- Smaller screen (I'm the type of guy that could carry a 7 inch tablet as a phone and not whine)

- Snapdragon 810 (pure trash)

- Made by Huawei (never heard of them before)

- My Nexus 6 gets the best reception of any phone I've ever owned and I don't want to lose that

- I just bought a Nexus 6 in June and another July (went swimming with my first one :crying: ) and can't justify spending another $650 on the 6P

I'll wait for the 2016, or possibly even the 2017 Nexus phones.
[Nexus 6  General] wakers:
I find my nexus 6 a little too wide so was considering the new one because its slightly narrower it was a tad difficult to hold properly because the only one carphone warehouse had was attached to the security tag/cord which was attached to the back of it...

[Nexus 6  General] Face_Plant:
Everything I've read says it throttles very aggressively, sometimes for no obvious reason, causing lag and other performance issues. I've seen other people say it overheats just browsing the web. Of course these are just random people on the internet and you can't believe what they say.

I played with an M9 at the Verizon store the other day when I was helping my friend pick out a new phone and it got very hot very fast and began to stutter and lag. Granted it was plugged in and was running whatever demo stuff they load onto it, so that could have been the cause.

My Nexus 6 never gets hot, or even warm, with my use. I'm sure the 6P would be fine with stock Android and no bloat, but I still don't want an 810 powered device.
