The benchmarks are not there to mislead, they are a guide. Its a dick waving contest between manufacturers, and they are all at it. Samsung arent the only one that do it. As I said earlier, only a naive person would think a benchmark reflects real life useage - thus there is no attempt to mislead.
I agree that they should also provide a benchmark for daily use...i.e. what the user will actually experience. Provide both figures if you want, nothing wrong with that.”
