Ulefone Future Antutu score revealed

Too bad this phone scored so low. I would get it but I need a phone with at least 90,000!!!

Antutu is pathetic on two levels (3 actually).

First it supposes important things that are unimportant to most (gpu and single core score), secondly the results are literally meaningless because we already know them beforehand. There are a handful of SoCs and they always score similarly (depending on the SoC you chose for the phone). So a score is a signature of a given SoC *nothing else*.

Sometimes a phone of a given SoC scores more (and that’s my 3rd point), but that’s only because Antutu can be easily gamed by artificially releasing more resources to it.

So either (1) we will get the score we expect from a SoC (which makes Antutu a machine of tautologies therefore useless), or (2) we won’t get the score we expect in which case the manufacturer is cheating (again a useless score) or (3) we’d actually get a new score because the SoC is new and never been measured again. In which case the score is AGAIN useless because it ranks highly things that mostly don’t matter to anything but gaming.

And that’s only 3 reasons of why this benchmark should stop being reported. I mean I can draw a picture with arbitrary scores too, will you report my “finding” too? Scientific reasoning goes long ways and Antutu devs have none of it so why bother with them?

BTW a true benchmark on a consumption OS would test things like longevity and integrity of a process, burst speeds and long term performance (for the few important apps that need it), give big importance to IO speeds and RAM bandwidth … etc.

Antutu is a toy benchmark that fails to mimic PC benchmarks (even as a PC benchmark it would fail). Not only is it off topic (measures the wrong things by mimicking PC benchmarks), but does so badly… what a joke.
