LG G2 flagship is the second smartphone powered by the latest Snapdragon 800 chipset we are examining today. Its four Krait 400 cores are clocked with 100 MHz higher than those on Sony’s Xperia Z Ultra at 2.26 GHz.
Other than the higher CPU clock, the LG G2 packs the same Adreno 330 graphics and 2GB of RAM. We noticed the LG G2 has 1.81 GB of RAM available, while the Xperia Z Ultra offers 1.76 GB RAM to the Android OS. Because the smartphones share the RAM with the GPU, this means Sony has made 50MB more RAM available to the Adreno 330 than LG.
Enough technicalities though, let’s put those beasts through the benchmarks and see who wins.
We test the single-core performance with the BenchmarkPi. The LG G2 managed to beat the Xperia Z Ultra score, helped by its higher CPU clock.

It’s time to test the GPU performance. As we mentioned above, the Xperia Z Ultra offers 50MB more RAM to its Adreno 330 than the G2 and the benchmarks scores confirm Sony’s gadget has greater graphic performance. You will hardly ever notice the difference in real life usage though.

The Adreno 330 GPU on both Xperia Z Ultra and LG G2 supports OpenGL ES 3.0, which was recently added to Android (with 4.3) and that promised improved graphics. It’s reasonable to expect even better graphics performance once Android 4.3 makes its way to this device.
The JavaScript performance of the LG G2 browser is excellent though the Xperia Z Ultra did an even better job. Since SunSpider has recently released a new v1.0.1 we used that for our tests.

Just like the Sony Xperia Z Ultra, the LG G2 offers blazing fast performance and user interface experience. There has never been as fast and fluid Android devices as those two beasts.
LG did a great move waiting for Qualcomm to start the mass production of the Snapdragon 800 chipset before outing its flagship. The G2 is definitely faster than the most common version of the Galaxy S4 that is running on the previous generation Snapdragon 600 SoC. You can feel it throughout the whole Android OS, when playing games, even when you are browsing the web. And since the Xperia Z Ultra is a phablet, then the LG G2 is currently the fastest smartphone available on the market to date.
