Gamebench iconGameBench- The first ‘uncheatable benchmark’

Benchmarks have always been the ultimate test, creating a parameter for measuring a phone’s speed, and thus comparing it to others.
Whenever a flagship is released it immediately gets treated to check how it fares correlating to the others. However, it recently came to light that most major OEMs have found a way to hack tests such as Antutu, and alter the results in their favor, which has brought the question of benchmarks results’ reliability to light.

 The developer of GameBench, a former ARM engineer, has released what he proclaims as the first ‘uncheatable’ benchmark tool, providing accurate results of the phone’s performance.
Fooling the results is benchmarkgate. It is concealed in the CPU and GPU, and initiates whenever a popular benchmarking app is launched, maximizing the phone’s performance as long as the test is active, thus adjusting the results in the phone’s favor.


Yet that process causes major battery drain, which GameBench noties and thus gives the device a lower score, resulting in an accurate score which can’t be artificially mended. Gamebench also takes into account the frame rate, monitors log performance, and performs all usual checks. Gamebench is on Google Play, and can be downloaded via Gamebench
