16 March 2021
The team went out and bought a GT to test and discovered it fudges the multi-core and JPG decompression tests.

You can basically compare desktop pc with phones too as it makes even less sense.
Iphones are only one specific hardware to run specifically only ios so you have no fair ground to compare with android devices that none of them have specific hardware to run only one specific software and is only optimized for it. It's just not fair to compare them.

If you can set android on bionic chips and then have same hardware to run benchmarks on android then we can talk about it. Like you only change bionic to snapdragon or what ever kirin, mtk and so on just the chip while other hardware wont be changed to test only the chip what gives the better result. But you cant make a fair environment to test it so bionic isnt better or worse cause you just cant compare it with anything

    I am just looking antutu scores if the cpu in use is unknown for me like most of the huawei and samsung chips or mtk chips. Just to compare phones for my budget range to get best out of the money. While i dont much care for the 50.000-100.000 difference in the flagship chips as you dont need the power for any game anyways and wont make much difference too if most games will run 60 fps or higher if supported on around 400 - 500.000 score anyways

          Shadocx, 16 Mar 2021In my opinion the Mate 40 Pro's score was legit, since... moreYes I think the Mate 40 Pro’s performance is really good and doesn’t throttle that much. Peak TDP is also not too high unlike SD888 (but still high nevertheless)

            P C M, 16 Mar 2021Chinses manufacturers cheat on benchmark. No new news. But... moreI agree. I have tried to reference Speed Test G benchmark scores in GsmA a few times and got bashed just because the iPhone 12 came out on top and throttled only very little (only lost 4 seconds/5% performance). The only disclaimer is left in the GitHub link.

            Rather I do despise Antutu’s scores. For example the Mi 11 scores 700k in Antutu’s database, but a reliable Youtuber (TechTablets, a Xiaomi fanboy himself actually) tested the same phone under optimal conditions and that phone actually scored 640k. 2k higher than the iPhone 12 Pro Max (which got about 590k only in the database) and around 20k higher than the S21 Ultra Exynos.

            I seriously don’t know how systematic Antutu is. I might just rely on the classic but reliable SPEC benchmark.

              Lolz

                    Never trust a benchmark, AnTuTu, or whatever! All benchmarks can be fooled and are deceptive! Only use real world tests! Like convert a 4K video, for example!

                          Antutu is an untrustable benchmark in itself

                            No surprises here,almost all Android manufacturers have been caught cheating in benchmarks including Scamsung.Android Authority have a yearly article about all these manufacturers cheating. :)

                              Bruh Moment 69420, 16 Mar 2021Wow. And here i was excited to buy this phone.That should be the last thing stopping you from buying it

                                Wow. And here i was excited to buy this phone.

Oneplus is probably playing by the rules too, given that they'll hurt their reputation if they get caught. Still it raises doubt since all their sister companies are cheating.
