What is the point of benchmarks when you achieve 1/3rd of the original scare in the second run because of thermal throttling? (Ughhh, Samsung)

                salarx, 16 Mar 2021Asus is the only brand here whose scores seem legit to me. ... moreOneplus having a reputation among YouTube shills doesn't mean they have a good image, GSMarena is pretty savvy about it, at least noticing the price hiking without improving their phones by much.

                  Well im from "Garbage Samsung J7 Pro(2017)" and my first best phone is "Realme 6" and now i can Play any Games i want without Slow, As long Gaming on Realme doesnt compromise then let them Cheat bout AnTutu just not from 2500 then became 2900 ..

                    Realme didn't pay the Antutu guys enough this time, thus Antutu responded. It's just business.

                      Uncle D, 16 Mar 2021Precisely, they all are cheaters 👍🏻So basically the scores are fake correct?

                        Lol, trying to cheat on shittiest benchmark on a planet, please. You go to Geekbench and all you get is pure numbers no nonsense chinese multithousand point benchmarks, which are broken by every new model lol.

                          Anonymous, 16 Mar 2021For me if i see someone compare iphone with android phones ... moreYou can't compare specifically the processor, or specifically the operating system (Especially since they're fundamentally different), but you can compare the entire package. Still, one shouldn't pick their operating system based on benchmarks unless they're really desperate to do a specific thing very well (Like gaming or video editing on their phone) so in the end I'd agree that the benchmarks aren't very useful.

                                  Benchmarks are all but pointless at this point.

                                  Pretty much all phones perform the same since Snapdragon has 0 competition in the flagship department or other departments for that matter.

                                  It's enough to read the processor name to know what level of performance to expect.

                                  Therefore someone trying to cheat those meaningless tests is just pathetic.

                                    I don't care about benchmarks, I care about cheating. If they can cheat their way in this, what else are they doing that are questionable? that is the real issue

                                      Dennis.K, 16 Mar 2021Antutu is an untrustable benchmark in itselfPrecisely, they all are cheaters 👍🏻

                                        Who really cares, isn't all of them cheating now and then... Nothing new.
                                        I don't like it, but cmon..
