Motorola Atrix 4G Smartphone Performance Benchmarks

This morning AT&T began selling the Motorola ATRIX and since they are marketing it as the world's most powerful smartphone we had to buy one and take a look at the performance of the phone compared to several other popular Android devices. How will the Motorola ATRIX do against the Droid X, Epic 4G and Droid Incredible on benchmarks like Linpack, Quadrant and Nenamark? Read on to find out!

As you can see from the chart the Motorola Atrix 4G dominated the other 1GHz devices that were all running Android 2.2 or 2.2.1! The Motorola Atrix was nearly 2.5x faster than the HTC Droid Incredible and the Samsung Epic 4G. The Motorola Droid X did a little better than the other single-core phones, but can you really call half the speed better? The Motorola Atrix 4G with the NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor was the only Android powered smartphone tested that was running a dual-core CPU and that certainly helped.

Interesting read. Phone hardware is really coming along well these days. Been reading about quad cores coming out by year end and the graphics maker of the PowerVR gpus claiming a 100x Performance increase coming possibly as early as 2012.

So I am wondering how these chips are going to compare to desktop parts. Is there a benchmark you can run on both Android phones and Windows or Linux PCs to give an idea on how the performance compares to x86.

Good write up!

Got mine rooted and running...unlimited data plan grandfathered over from AT&T and I'm good to go. Now if there was only a way to sync my Outlook directly to the phone...

Nice write up, Nate. When you root your phone, download a program called "Shoot Me." You can take screenshots of your phone, rather than taking a picture of your phone. #-o :)

The Motorola Atrix is an incredibly fast phone and after spending a day with this smartphone it makes it look twice at our Blackberry Bold 9000 and wonder why we still carry it around.
In December I went from a Blackberry Curve 8330 to a HTC EVO 4G. The EVO and Android combo are a lot more fun to play with. When I need to look something up quickly on the net I'll whip out my phone, never did that with the Blackberry. The upside, and it's a huge one, to the Blackberry is the battery life. After 2 years of having the Blackberry I could still go 4-5 days without charging it. If I go 12 hours without charging the EVO it's dead.

Yup, this does it for me!

Well except i'm Verizon so it'll have to be a Droid Bionic. I'm curious to see how well these things over clock. On my OG Droid upping the clock from 600mhz to 1.1ghz has provided a HUGE performance increase.
