Lenovo K800's initial benchmark scores look promising, but not ambitious

[![Lenovo K800's initial benchmark scores look promising, but not the ambitious kind][1] ][2]

If Lenovo's sticking to its promise, it should only be another two months maximum before its [Intel Medfield][3]-powered K800 smartphone [debuts][4] in China. Until then, we won't know the full potential of the 1.6GHz Atom Z2460 powering Ice Cream Sandwich, but we do have the next best thing for now: what we've just obtained are some benchmark results from a K800 prototype with Android 2.3.7, and while the graphics performance wasn't top notch this time round, the general score performance came close to that of the Galaxy Note (powered by a 1.4GHz dual-core Exynos chipset).

However, the K800 did beat pretty much everyone -- including the brand-spanking-new [One X][5] and [One S][6] from HTC -- in the SunSpider 0.91 Javascript test, where it only took 1,270ms to complete! What remains to be seen is whether Medfield will really deliver a better battery performance than its competitors; so until we find the answer (along with improved scores) on a final unit, you'll just have to make do with our list of scores after the break.
