That's not cool: These top gaming phones with liquid cooling just got caught for benchmark cheating
… The company asserted that it views benchmarking as an indicator of potential performance under “controlled, high-load conditions.” Check out our article to read the full response . …
These gaming phones got busted for cheating, and here's what the brand says in defence
… Regarding benchmarking, we view it as an indicator of a device’s performance potential under controlled, high-load conditions. As such, performance outcomes may vary depending on system settings, usage scenarios, and environmental factors. …
After this test, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 isn't my definitive gaming chip anymore
… In most Android games, performance is likely to be very, very close between these two chips. Unfortunately, the Find X9 Pro doesn’t sustain this performance lead for very long. …
Samsung’s ‘for Galaxy’ Snapdragon pulls ahead in GPU tests, until throttling wipes out its lead
… That reinforces an important takeaway: peak performance numbers don’t tell the full story if they can’t be maintained. In practice, sustained performance and thermal management matter far more than single-run benchmark wins. …
Chrome is now 'faster than ever,' and Google wrote a technical love letter to prove it
… Chrome’s performance was measured using popular web benchmarking tools, including Speedometer and Jetstream. Chrome’s performance increased by 5–10% across both tests since last year. …
The Motorola Razr Fold proves skipping Elite silicon was a smart move
… Either that or Motorola would have to throttle back performance much harder to keep the phone cool. Do you really need ‘Elite’ performance? …
Google just made me look like an idiot for believing in its Tensor chips

I tested the this liquid-cooled phone in a UK heatwave, it made me sweat
… Power draw and thermals now limit how much additional performance phones can realistically sustain. Unleash devices without these constraints, and we do see very extreme levels of performance, but with heat and power draw to match. …
Google's latest on-device AI model is custom-made for your laptop
… This should result in much better performance on laptops without the need for dedicated AI hardware. …
