Doubt the accuracy of the information given by this site. Why do I say that? S855+ 150,000 GPU? It's really ridiculous and inaccurate. Even my LG V50, with only S855 and not S855+, has a GPU v10 score of 183,000, then S855+ only 150,000? Stupid? Or intentionally fabricated information? LG is famous for poor optimization and performance, but in reality it's even stronger. Even the total Antutu v10 score is approximately 600,000, like the total score of S855+ is only 617,000? Completely fabricated.
