When contacted, OnePlus told XDA, “People use benchmark apps in order to ascertain the performance of their device, and we want users to see the true performance of the OnePlus 5.
Indeed, this puts OnePlus in a tight spot. All temperatures were measured using an FLIR C2 Compact with each endurance run beginning at an outer temperature of 28.5☌ | 83.3☏. As for testing, the ROM had minimal background processes with no third-party applications and running Airplane Mode was applicable CPU frequencies were logged only to determine the extent of the cheating and not in the tests that produced scores for this article. It did clue me into the fact that OnePlus was referring to benchmark packages by name in their ROM. OnePlus forwarded reviewers instructions to enable the ability to download benchmark applications off the Play Store, and presumably, this was done so that there would be no benchmark score leaks ahead of time.

Experts at the various big Tech-Media Giants are indicating that it might even affect the sale of the One Plus 5.Īn XDA Developer saw the problem when he was testing his review unit. Well, repeating the same mistake again One Plus is disappointing its fans by fake benchmark scores. Well, this is not the first time something like this happened, last year when one plus 3T was launched, that time also the allegations surfaced on the internet that the phone was providing false benchmarks scores, which was later on confirmed by the company. As a result, every OnePlus 5 review citing benchmark scores as an accolade of the phone’s success is misleading both customers and reviewers. This is an inexcusable move by the company because it is ultimately an attempt to mislead not just customers, but taint the work of reviewers and journalists with misleading data that many are not able to vet or verify. It has been accused that it has an inbuilt AI which manipulates the results and gives misleading benchmark scores.

We value the feedback we receive about our products and after careful consideration, we plan to roll out a software update soon so users can control the performance while running game apps.Earlier this year, a report was published about the benchmarks scores of One Plus 5 which was claiming the highest scores ever achieved by a smartphone which according to the ‘geek bench’ was around 1963 Single Core and 6687 Multi-Core, which was even better than Samsung Galaxy S8+.īut today (after the launch of One Plus 5) the company has been again accused of inappropriately manipulating benchmark scores of One Plus 5. GOS does not manage the performance of non-gaming apps. The Game Optimizing Service (GOS) has been designed to help game apps achieve a great performance while managing device temperature effectively.

As Apple learned years ago, though, at least some users want more control and transparency for throttling - they're willing to sacrifice battery life and heat to see devices reach their full potential. Chips like the Galaxy S22's Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and Exynos 2200 can run hot, and Samsung even introduced vapor chamber cooling to the S22 to manage that heat. It's difficult for phone vendors to completely avoid throttling. Huawei, Oppo and other phone makers have been caught cheating on benchmarks in the past, but those methods relied on ramping up performance when a test app was in use, not slowing down for other apps. This was ostensibly meant to preserve battery life, but didn't include benchmarks. In 2021, OnePlus admitted that it throttled the OnePlus 9 while popular apps were in use.
