All I know, as a user, is that the phone equipped with the same speed Samsung processor performs less well than a similarly equipped phone with a Qualcomm processor.

Whether there are test to determine whatever, it can't alleviate the user-experience. Just telling a person that a test should be used to determine what part of the [Samsung] phone is the culprit for poor performance doesn't help the overall experience. The NS is a Samsung phone with Samsung components. It performs less well than a non-Samsung phone equipped with a Qualcomm processor.

holy crap how thick are you? He's saying its probably something else, not the processor, but youre saying that since theyre a different processor that instantly makes the qualcomm superior. If you take a 400hp engine and a 100hp engine but give the 400 such a shitty suspension that it cant turn quick and is thus beaten by the 100hp engine, does that mean the 100 is a better faster engine? No, it means the car was tuned better and the rest of the parts work well together.

What you REALLY want to say, is you are unimpressed with the NS. Not the samsung chip inside. Your logic is totally flawed

You're trying to say that it's okay if a Samsung product underperforms because of other non-optimized components. It's still all Samsung. You're trying to excuse Samsung any way you can.

A person would think that an all-Samsung product could perform better than a non-Samsung product of the same speed.

Not if you keep insisting on comparing a single-core samsung to a dual-core qualcomm device, like you do with the Nexus S and the Galaxy S3.

If you compare the Samsung-powered S3 with the Qualcomm alternative, samsung wins most races, unless you specifically use only a single thread:
