MediaTek Benchmark Cheating

MediaTek Response To Cheating Claims

After Anandtech contacted them, MediaTek issued this statement their decision to selectively boost performance for benchmarks :

MediaTek follows accepted industry standards and is confident that benchmarking tests accurately represent the capabilities of our chipsets. Many companies design devices to run on the highest possible performance levels when benchmarking tests are running in order to show the full capabilities of the chipset. This reveals coque huawei p30 lite noir what the upper end of performance oretech coque huawei p30 pro capabilities are coque huawei p30 lite clapet on any given chipset.

Of course, in real world scenarios there are a multitude of factors that will determine how coque huawei p8 lite 2017 iron man chipsets perform. MediaTek’s chipsets are designed to optimize power and performance to coque custodia cover fundas hoesjes j3 j5 j6 s20 s10 s9 s8 s7 s6 s5 plus edge b36045 spidey school out j0657 samsung galaxy note 10 case provide the best user experience possible while maximizing battery life. If someone is running a compute intensive program like a demanding game, the huawei p30 coque fleur rose chipset will intelligently adapt to computing coque custodia cover fundas hoesjes j3 j5 j6 s20 s10 s9 s8 s7 nike adidas wallpaper 63in2 s6 s5 plus edge d25377 gold kate spade lotus samsung galaxy note 10 plus case patterns to deliver sustained performance. This means that a coque iphone 7 plus la fnac 7032antenpascher4407 user will see different iphone xr coque elegant levels of performance from different apps as the chipset dynamically manages the CPU, coque huawei p30 star wars iphone wallpaper 516 pro supcase GPU and memory resources according to the power and performance that is required coque stranger things huawei p9 for a great user experience. Additionally, some brands have different types coque huawei y6 2018 anneau of modes turned on in different regions so device performance can vary coque huawei p8 lite 2017 sailor moon based on regional market requirements.

We believe that showcasing the full capabilities of a chipset in benchmarking tests is in line with the practices of other companies and gives consumers an accurate picture of device performance.

This affected more than 50 smartphones from 25 ringke coque huawei p10 smartphone brands, including the Xiaomi coque custodia cover fundas hoesjes j3 j5 j6 s20 s10 s9 s8 s7 s6 s5 plus edge d26043 guns n roses samsung galaxy s8 plus case Redmi Note 8 Pro, Oppo Reno3 Pro, Vivo Y19, and Realme 6.

UL also called out MediaTek for claiming that they were following standards saying :

Using hidden mechanisms to detect benchmarking apps by name and make app specific performance optimizations is not an industry standard. It is, in fact, the very opposite of the accepted standard.

Likewise, benchmark scores based on hidden app specific optimizations and settings that are enabled by default and not available to the user do not accurately reflect a device coque silicone huawei p10 lite disney true coque custodia cover fundas hoesjes j3 j5 j6 s20 s10 s9 s8 s7 s6 s5 plus edge d24712 friends tv series collage samsung galaxy note 8 case performance in everyday use.

Simply put, a device must run a benchmark as if it was any other application. Performance gains must come from reacting to the nature of the workloads in the test rather than the name of the app coque iphone 11 pro max coldpaly a sky full of stars itself.

MediaTek was caught RED HANDED in the act of cheating at benchmarks. There are no two ways about it.

Their that their chipsets are designed to adapt to computing pattern is just a lame excuse.

It cannot explain how their P95 processor delivered much poorer performance on an anonymised PCMark benchmark.

This is backed up by details in the configuration files that explicitly show them triggering a special Sports Mode for coque iphone 8 vert 7032antenpascher5462 benchmarks.

Now, this does not change the performance of your MediaTek powered smartphones. It just means that their benchmark scores wereartificially inflated.

Short of an outright apology and a public promise never to do this again, all benchmark scores of MediaTek powered smartphones should be considered suspect, and not to be trusted…
