Update: YouTube member richardlai noticed that all 3 devices are running at a different resolution on the And3DBench.

A friend of mine asked me to run a few benchmarks of my Evo to compare so I made this little video and discovered a similar issue that the Evo may have faced:

As you can see from the Video, in the FPS2D benchmark and the An3DBench benchmarks the Dell Streak doesn’t go over 30FPS at all.

Dell Streak:

• FPS2D result: 29 fps average
• An3DBench – Multiple Lights: 29.22 fps
• An3DBench – Keyframe Animation: 29.20 fps

Archos 5 Internet Tablet

• FPS2D result: 49 fps average
• An3DBench – Multiple Lights: 43.97 fps
• An3DBench – Keyframe Animation: 49.83 fps

Nexus One:

• FPS2D result: 60 fps average
• An3DBench – Multiple Lights: 53.59 fps
• An3DBench – Keyframe Animation: 60.38 fps

I’m not sure if it is a 30FPS limit on the streak but from what I’ve seen here, it may be the case.

The Telegraph have reported that the Nexus One will be sold directly in the U.K in April through the www.google.com/phone webstore, available subsidised on the Vodafone network.

Google’s Nexus One, the company’s first own-brand mobile phone, will launch in the UK in April. It will be on sale through Google.com/phone only, as the company has previously announced. Tariffs have not been announced, but the Nexus One is likely to be priced very similarly to comparable smartphones such as the iPhone.

According to the article it will only be sold through the Google webstore but both Play.com and Expansys are already selling the Nexus One in the UK.

Technobuffalo have posted a video of the Nexus One Vs the Motorola Droid.

An interesting little video comparing 2 of the hard hitting Android handsets availalbe in the United States.

There is not much in either handset but the advantages of Verizon’s network in the US puts it ahead of the Nexus One from what I saw.
