The GPU is expected to make the smartphone one of the fastest smartphones of the year, according to Android Authority.

Besides, the GPU in the Galaxy S3 is even powerful than the dual-core PowerVR GPU which the iPhone 4S is packed with. The Exynos processor and the Mali-400 GPU of galaxy S3 can even beat the HTC One X which is powered by Nvidia Tegra 3 quad-core and GeForce graphics processor.

The results show that Samsung's forthcoming Galaxy smartphone can be one of the powerful smartphones of the year and can beat handsets like HTC One X and iPhone 4S in terms of processor and graphics unit capabilities.

According to an IBTimes report that surfaced last week, the upcoming Galaxy S3 smartphone will feature a quad-core processor that will deliver "superlative benchmark performance".
