Outdated Processor ? Really ?
10% worse performance makes it outdated ?
In GLBenchmark HTc One scores just 4fps more than XZ. That makes XZ outdated ?
The performance gap between One X and GS3 was greater than the performance gap between Htc One/GS4 and XZ, yet people didn't say " Oh One X is using such an outdated CPU".
Even though XZ may be 10% slower it's still butter smooth .Look at S4 videos on GSMArena, it's the laggiest of the lot between HTC One/XZ and S4. Dialler app still takes 2 seconds to open just like S3 due to the heavy touchwiz skin.
So benchmark performance doesn't necessarily mean smoother real world usage, especially when difference is minimal.
I'm not denying the fact that XZ is the least powerful of the lot, but some people are exaggerating the difference quite a lot.
Let's look at some GL Benchmark scores of pre release Xperia Z vs HTC One
GLBenchmark 2.5 Egypt HD C24Z16 - Offscreen (1080p):
XZ - 30.4 fps
One - 34.1 fps
GLBenchmark 2.5 Egypt HD C24Z16 - Onscreen:
XZ -31.3 fps
One - 31.6 fps
GLBenchmark 2.5 Egypt HD C24Z16MS4 - Onscreen:
XZ -17.4 fps
One - 18.3 fps
GLBenchmark 2.5 Egypt HD Fixed Timestep - Onscreen:
XZ - 27.9 fps
One - 28.7 fps
GLBenchmark 2.5 Egypt HD Fixed Timestep - Offscreen (1080p):
XZ - 26.9 fps
One - 30.2 fps
GLBenchmark 2.1 Egypt Classic - Onscreen:
XZ - 58.2 fps
One - 61.1 fps
GLBenchmark 2.1 Egypt Classic - Offscreen (1080p):
XZ - 78.9 fps
One - 87.8 fps
Fill rate - Onscreen:
XZ - 839
One - 958
Fill rate - Offscreen (1080p):

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, XZ is SOOOOOOOOOOOO Slow Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
