The device was running on Android 4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich with the Krait processor clocked at 1.5GHz.Nenamark2 on this slate which showed a score of 54.90 noticeably better than the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket(AT&T at 54.1) but with a lower resolution at 480 X 800 and Galaxy Note(32.8).Proving that is the fact that it beats the Mali-400 GPU, which is the second-best graphical performer after Apple’s PowerVR SGX543MP2 in the A5 chip.This may be  tiny winy less than upcoming Tegra 3.
