I bet you don’t know there’s a chart that ranks the superiority of a smartphone from the other?  Most times, our intuition guides us when ranking one smart phone’s brand as superior to the other. Alas! Take it back and don’t be guided by what you see, but users’ experience of the phone. Recently, Antutu released best performing smartphones based on the Antutu benchmark speed test which is used rank smartphones based on its performance. Antutu is an app that benchmarks Android devices by testing many parts of the device and assigns an overall score on its performance. Antutu measures the UX (users’ experience); RAM (Random Access Memory); CPU (Central Processing Unit); GPU (Graphics Processing Unit); IO (Input/Output). Here is the list of Android smartphones that made the top 5 of the Antutu benchmark.
