What’s New in Antutu V5.0

Every improvement or update of Antutu benchmark is on the basic of the development of smart phone industry and also the performance needs of user. This time, Antutu V5.0 will bring you deeper understanding of the word”performance”.

V5.0 New features:New Test items added:

1. CPU single-threaded performance testing

In most cases, users want to know the performance limiting of their device and they also need to get the idea of their daily using performance . 

 With no doubt, more cores will bring more powerful performance. However, many apps haven’t optimized for multi-core. For instance, many game apps only use one or two cores. In power saving mode, most cores are in the state of dormancy. Users could not tell the different of multi-core when they use the daily-using apps. In this case, CPU single threaded benchmark added in the new version.

2. Real Game engine:Cocos2D,Havok Vision

1)Famous 2D game engine-Coscos2D

2)Real game engine-Havok Vision Engine

 Havok Vision Engine is used in Windows、Xbox360、PlayStation、Nintendo Wii、Wii U、iOS , Android and most brewers.

In V4.0, some of the best display chips have already reached the top level--65FPS when running 3D drawing.The score of single item is about 11000,which includes most flagship GPU,like dreno 330,Mali-T628,NVIDIA Geforce, PowerVR CG6XX0. New testing scenario is inevitable.

3D testing scenario of Antutu V5.0 has adjustment in light and shadows,Normal Map,Animation and other features. Three times of Fragment Shader compared with last version, will be enough to reflect the new devices performance accurately in the future. 

3. HTML5 Test

HTML5 Test is to test default browser performance,which will also reflect the devices performance.

Antutu HLML5 test is not included in the V5.0 comprehensive performance testing system. Running as an independent test system,it is a measurement of HTML5 compatibility and its operating efficiency. As web browsing is important function in daily using, this test, has its significant meaning when we talk about benchmark.

We want to say：

User experience quantification is Antutu’s ultimate goal.

The philosophy of Antutu update is still in use--Numbers reflects users actual experience. Benchmarking is not the final purpose. The meaning of benchmark is quantify the performance , combined with user requirements. Performance limiting could not represent user actual experience. When users get the score, they will get the idea-not only the performance limiting but also the actual experience. Antutu is doing our best to make it better. Hope you like this update version.
