Mystery LG LE970 claims next-gen Adreno graphics, can't quite prove it

Mystery LG LE970 claims next-gen Adreno graphics, can't quite prove it

Maybe our skeptic's goggles have fogged over with excitement, but there's something mightily interesting about an entry over at GLBenchmark. First off, the model number and listing info vaguely suggest it could be a variant of the LS970 superphone rumored for Sprint, aka the LG Eclipse, although the ICS build ("geeb_att_us-eng 4.0.4") indicates this 1280 x 720, 1.5GHz device is one of Ma Bell's. One of the more unusual specs offers some corroboration: the Adreno 320 graphics, which only come in the souped-up Pro or quad-core variants of Qualcomm's latest Snadragon S4 chipset. That would make the LE970 a rare breed indeed, but unfortunately that's where the evidence runs out of steam. The handset's actual 2.1 Egypt Standard benchmark only shows a score of 59.5fps -- exactly what we get from an HTC One S with its regular non-Pro CPU and Adreno 225 GPU. Oh well, where are those lens wipes?
