Galaxy Nexus Beats iPhone 4S in Browsing Benchmarks but lags in OpenGL

The first Ice Cream Sandwich smartphone Galaxy Nexus, was released last week in UK and AnandTech  has benchmarked Galaxy Nexus vs. the iPhone 4S. Though the Galaxy Nexus Processor didn't turn out to be what we thought but it was good enough to beat the iPhone 4S marginally in browser benchmarks. But interestingly  iPhone 4S and iPad 2 fare better when compared with the Galaxy Nexus in GPU benchmarks which is limited by its slower SGX 540, which is very crucial for gaming purposes.The iPhone 4S makes use of the A5 processor, which makes use of the dual-core SGX 543MP2 GPU from Imagination Technologies.  It remains to be seen how the Galaxy Nexus would fare in comparison with the iPhone 4S as far as the sales goes,since we already know that iPhone 4S has been breaking all the records by far.
