I think this is much less of an issue nowadays with the quality openstreetmaps has reached. I'm using almost exclusively osmAnd on android instead of google maps, because of offline capabilities & more detailed maps in my area. Unless one needs things like real-time traffic info or Streetview, it's IMHO equal or superior to the mapping applications from the big players. Also, modRana and Marble are very decent on maemo.
Well the msm8930 in the Galaxy s4 mini with a adreno 305 gpu is clocked at 1.7ghz, I believe it is krait 400 cores though. The S4 mini also has the same qhd resolution which I believe someone else mentioned.

Even if it's the msm8960 with adreno 225 it still will be a nice step up over the N9. So performance should be noticeably better.
