“The fact remains that benchmark producers, Android engineers and enthusiasts see these mechanisms as unfair, unrepresentative of the user experience, a bit deceptive and, ultimately, a waste of resources that could have gone to another aspect of product development. However, the blog maintains that the way the OnePlus 5 is set up to handle benchmarks is misleading: The article also notes that the “product itself is good, performance is phenomenal”. XDA Developers has since updated its original blog post with its own response to the OnePlus allegations, confirming that OnePlus is correct in stating that there is no overclocking or CPU frequency floor. We are confident our approach best displays the true performance capabilities of the OnePlus 5.” At no point do we overclock the CPU, nor do we set a CPU frequency floor. “We have set the OnePlus 5 to run benchmarks at a high-performance level that is both natural and sustainable for all devices, media and consumer, so that users can see the true potential of the device, when running resource intensive apps and games.

OnePlus then sent the following statement to both TrustedReviews and XDA Developers: We are not overclocking the device rather we are displaying the performance potential of the OnePlus 5.” Additionally, when launching apps the OnePlus 5 runs at a similar state in order to increase the speed in which apps open. Therefore, we have allowed benchmark apps to run in a state similar to daily usage, including the running of resource intensive apps and games. “ 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. The first was sent to XDA Developers, and reads:

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. Responding to the allegations OnePlus said in a media statement, "Our top priority is always delivering a great user experience with our products, based in part on acting quickly on important user feedback. App detection is used by companies to make smartphones appear more powerful on benchmarking platforms, however, “instead of increasing the benchmark performance, the company is reducing real-world application performance to below that of the theoretical hardware capabilities,” it said. So, why is OnePlus doing? “The only sensible rationale for such a decision is to improve a device’s power efficiency and battery life,” the report added. “In testing, I had encountered something which really perplexed me, and caught my attention seemingly inexplicable slow browser benchmark figures which were not in line with any other Snapdragon 888 device in the market, getting only a fraction of the scores and performance of other devices,” explained the report by AnandTech. We will also test the other OnePlus handsets in our performance lab to see if these handsets also manipulate perfor… - Geekbench 1625585416000 AnandTech in its report said that the OnePlus 9 Pro’s software was using an application detection mechanism and intentionally kept running popular apps like Google Chrome, FireFox, Zoom, WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram and “pretty much everything that has any level of popularity in the Play Store” in processor’s slower cores.
