![]() The flagship was dropped from its benchmarks.Ĭurrently, Geekbench’s policy is that once a device is removed from its benchmark, it will not be added back. Samsung also responded to this, saying that the original intention was to prevent the device from overheating, and that it will provide users with a mode that prioritizes performance in an upcoming update, but it is too late, and Geekbench has now put the last four years of Galaxy. However, Samsung’s latest flagships have encountered some minor setbacks recently, mostly around the company’s Game Optimization Service (GOS), which is said to have performance throttling for around 10,000 apps. What’s clear is that OnePlus is taking an unusual approach to power management on the 9 Pro - Frumusanu says it “certainly represents the first case of a vendor implementing application and benchmark detection in this manner” - and that’s something you might want to be aware of before dropping the cash on the company’s latest flagship.From the pre-order situation, the Samsung Galaxy S22 series is obviously more popular. “However, having it side-by-side to a Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra, or a Xiaomi Mi 11 (Ultra) and paying attention, I do very much notice that the OnePlus 9 Pro is less responsive.” “I wouldn’t blame anybody if they hadn’t necessarily noticed the performance discrepancy - I hadn’t immediately noticed it myself beyond the device’s extremely slow momentum scrolling speed setting,” Frumusanu writes. It is worth noting that the performance tweaks may well not make much difference to the user’s overall experience. Unless, of course, the intended user experience is for most popular apps to be slowed down, and the “impact” is on benchmark results that are higher than they ought to be. OnePlus’ statement implies that the performance is only affected in benchmark results, which is essentially the opposite of what Anandtech has found. ![]() While this may impact the devices’ performance in some benchmarking apps, our focus as always is to do what we can to improve the performance of the device for our users.” This has helped to provide a smooth experience while reducing power consumption. As a result of this feedback, our R&D team has been working over the past few months to optimize the devices’ performance when using many of the most popular apps, including Chrome, by matching the app’s processor requirements with the most appropriate power. Following the launch of the OnePlus 9 and 9 Pro in March, some users told us about some areas where we could improve the devices’ battery life and heat management. “Our top priority is always delivering a great user experience with our products, based in part on acting quickly on important user feedback. OnePlus confirmed to XDA Developers that this is intended behavior designed to improve battery life. Nevertheless, popular testing tool GeekBench describes OnePlus’ approach as “benchmark manipulation” and has removed the OnePlus 9 and 9 Pro from its Android benchmark chart. That isn’t quite what’s happening here while benchmark apps seem to be running within expectations, it’s the performance of “regular” apps that’s been reduced. Some phone manufacturers have been caught in the past artificially boosting performance so that their devices run unreasonably fast in benchmarks. ![]() OnePlus 9 Pro review: a refined, niche flagship
