Geekbench 3 - App Review



The name gives a strong hint of what you are letting yourself in for.

If you want to know more about your iOS device, here's an App for you... you'll probably even get answers to questions you wouldn't think to ask.

Now for the ACIDS test:

Aesthetics
The interface is very uncluttered; just 3 buttons:

Run Processor Benchmark
Hit this then sit back for a few minutes while your iOS device is analysed. You will get masses of information, not only the overview of exactly which iOS device you are using, but also speed ratings for various rests (split between single and multi-core).

Run Battery Benchmark
Again, hit this and wait, but this time, until your battery is 100% charged. You will then get a rating of your battery's health status.

Previous Benchmarks
... no explanation required.

Cost
The App costs a nominal $1.

Indispensability
If you feel something might be amiss, this is a great way to put your mind at rest, or get the ammunition do do something about it.

Dependability
To be honest, I have no way of checking that the tests are accurate but, I can vouch for 100% accuracy in detecting many different iOS devices.

Security
You can share your results by e-mail, as well as share the information on the primatelabs.com website.

More results than you could shake a stick at.
