HTC U11 surpasses Samsung Galaxy S8 in Performance

The HTC U11 outperforms the Samsung Galaxy S8 and proves that 4 GB of RAM can be useful in a smartphone, if you know how to use it.

HTC U11 si Samsung Galaxy S8 appear today in a performance test that shows us how badly the Samsung company thinks of the software for its smartphones. The HTC U11 finishes the test below more than 20 seconds faster than the Samsung Galaxy S8, and few people expected this, considering that the smartphones have very similar specifications.

The HTC U11 works on the basis of a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 chip that has 4 GB of RAM, and the Samsung Galaxy S8 works on the basis of the same chip that also has 4 GB of RAM. The Samsung Galaxy S8 is also sold in models that have Exynos chips, but the terminal in the video clip below has theoretically identical hardware to that of the HTC U11, but it seems that the software makes the difference, but not in a positive way .

The HTC U11 manages to keep several applications open in the background with its 4 GB of RAM, while the Samsung Galaxy S8 with the same amount of RAM has poorer performance. Why the Samsung Galaxy S8 is not able to keep as many applications open in the background as the HTC U11 is a mystery at first glance, but in reality we are definitely talking about bad software behind the scenes.

HTC U11 surpasses Samsung Galaxy S8 in performance

Samsung Galaxy S8 and HTC U11 have different versions of software applied for the interface that modifies the standard one of Android, and here the difference seems to be made. The TouchWiz in the Samsung Galaxy S8 seems to be much worse than the Sense UI in the HTC U11 and seems to consume much more resources, and therefore applications cannot be kept open as much in the background.

The Samsung Galaxy S8 is known to have this problem, in fact all Samsung terminals are known to have this problem, unlike the HTC U11 and HTC terminals. The HTC U11 seems to have had somewhat better trained engineers than those who worked on the Samsung Galaxy S8, and the end users are the ones who suffer the most because of this.

The Samsung Galaxy S8 failed to outperform any other premium Android smartphone, so it was unlikely that it could surpass the HTC U11, despite the hopes of Samsung fans. The HTC U11 is among the Android smartphones that beat the Samsung Galaxy S8 and once again humiliate the engineers of the Samsung company, who cannot make good software.

The Samsung Galaxy S8 is a clear proof of the fact that when you don't want it, you can have any kind of resources, because anyway you won't offer good performance.
