Not sure why this is being downvoted. I'm afraid you're right that many commercial, closed-source CPU's are faster, but (depending on your application) it's not that bad. CPU's in smartphones are ridiculously overpowered for 95% of the uses cases anyway. Anyway, it's the best 'open' (then documentation is openly available; the CPU is not open source!) processor available, AFAIK.
