It may look like the Samsung Galaxy S3. But its performance is nothing like it. In fact, it’s totally and utterly off the charts. Nothing is going to come close for a while in terms of raw speed.

Sunspider scores 740. This is absolutely incredible and blows the iPhone 5 and its A6 processor ( and the iPad 4 and its A6x processor) out of the water!

-feels extremely fast

-stunning high resolution, vibrant display

that’s only 500 mAh smaller than the Galaxy Note 2. and that’s saying something.

-lightweight, S3-sized yet manages a bigger display AND a bigger battery. Can it get better than this?
