      Also their CPU cores were clocked at a quite high frequency for each cluster.

I have no idea about the BBK Phones, but Redmi and Xiaomi scoring more is bs. MIUI 12 is the biggest loser when it comes to optimization.

            Chinses manufacturers cheat on benchmark. No new news.
            But some stupid people accuse "Gary Explain" for not releasing his "Speed Test G" software. I guess this incident should open their eyes if they are not dumb.
            This is what happens when manufacturers get the benchmark code.
            " THEY CHEAT "

              People still use AnTuTu?

                Cheating is everywhere! Will come to lime light once exposed. They want to brag that they are no. 1 . These scores are increasing day by day but has only little value on daily usage.

                      theres a lot of phone out there cheating the benchmark.
                      Especially the entry level budget phone, somehow have about 250k score.
                      But when run hd game setting, the device seems poor than 180k

                              there was absolutely no need for them to cheat, the phone is already a hit in people eyes. it has a flagship chip and cheap price for the specs, all they had to do was make enough of it and ship them to multiple markets.

                                  still one of the cheapest, if not the cheapest phone with SD888 and headphone jak
                                  I'm still gonna buy this if it is released globally..

                                    Excellent Decision. Many OEMs are fudging on tests, and they need to be banned by many more testing groups. Plus, apart from destroying photo and video, the smartphones could be damaging the processor too.

                                      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. :)

                                        I don't even follow these score or make decisions based on benchmark score. Software experience & less less bloat ware is key to me & after sale software support especially non locked phones with custom ROM support with easy bootloader unlocking without asking or waiting for permission from the OEM to unlock a phone I have bought with my own money at a high price sh#t. Nowonder I ditched Hauwei, Samsung, Oppo, Vivo, Realme etc & partially Xiaomi those who make it difficult !it possible to unlock the bootloader. Now I only consider Google pixel phones & OnePlus phones no matter how beautiful these other OEMs phones look.
