Help Is performance affected by temperature?

[cronos77]

Hi,

I'm wondering if my Galaxy S3 LTE have an issue when temperature raise up or all SIII suffer from performance loss with temperature is raising up.

I would like people having a Galaxy S3 LTE --US or CND-- to post their Quadrant Scores here.

After using my S3 for games, if I run Quadrant, a benchmark tool, the score I got is much lower than when I benchmark it after being idle for some time.

From the test I ve seen, I should get a scores of approx 5000. But if I run a Quadrant after being idle for a long time, I get a scores of 4800. But if I use it for some times, and try to benchmark it: I would get between 3800 and 4300. Which is frustrating...

Energy saver is turned Off and my Phone was resetted to factory default.

I am afraid that the phone is lowering down the clock speed when it get a certain temp threshold... which is not very high.

Quadrant scores after being Idle: 4800
Quadrant scores after some intensive use: 3800-4300
thanks for the help
p.s:Quadrant is free on Google Play.

well, that is one of the basic realities of electronics. more heat = less performance. are you noticing any real-world lag issues? because if youre not having problems, i wouldnt worry about it. benchmark scores vary wildly for a myriad of reasons

when I'm out on the boat fishing my phone comes to almost a complete halt after a few hours on the water...actually happened yesterday but its no where near as bad as it was with my evo.
