Not only does this model boot and open applications faster but it also renders video at a significantly faster rate. The possibility exists that this substantial difference in performance might be specific to these units unless we see more videos pop up on YouTube with similar results. This could also be due to a Samsung fault with optimization since the Snapdragon 820 has in some tests.
