Let the games begin.
After reports surfaced that Samsung among others have cheated on benchmark tests, the smartphone giant has decided to fire back at those accusations. Here’s what they said on CNet UK:
“The Galaxy Note 3 maximises its CPU/GPU frequencies when running features that demand substantial performance,” Samsung said in a statement to CNET UK.
“This was not an attempt to exaggerate particular benchmarking results. We remain committed to providing our customers with the best possible user experience.”
Okay. This is pretty black and white with no wiggle room for interpretation. So the question is who’s telling the truth? Samsung or AnandTech? We’ll likely never know for sure. But it is an interesting discussion point as I wouldn’t want to buy a product based on performance and never actually get it because someone cheated.
