New cross-platform benchmark for Android, iOS and Windows

The first screenshot on the left in the image above shows a device that offers steady performance with no throttling. The middle screenshot shows aggressive performance throttling after a short time due to heat build-up under heavy load. The last screenshot on the right shows gradual throttling down from the peak to a lower level of sustained performance.

The benchmark that gives you more than a score

3DMark is a benchmarking app that gives you more than a score. With its unique charts, lists and rankings, 3DMark gives you unrivaled insights into the performance of Android and iOS devices.

Discover real-world performance

Average benchmark scores are good for comparing devices, but 3DMark goes further. For each device, a unique chart shows you the full range of results submitted by other 3DMark users around the world.

In the chart below, for example, you can see that all the results tend to fall in the same narrow range. This means the device performs consistently even when the benchmark is running under less than ideal conditions.

The next chart, however, shows a different performance profile. There are four distinct peaks spread over a wide range of scores. A chart with this shape tells you that the device does not perform consistently in real-world use.

The rightmost peak shows the score the device can achieve under ideal conditions. The two middle peaks tell you that this device slows down when hot or when multitasking. Many devices tend to reduce performance in steps, and those steps are visible in the chart. The leftmost peak shows you that the device's real-world performance can sometimes be far below the optimum.

See how OS updates affect performance

With 3DMark, it’s also easy to see how major OS updates—like Android 11 and iOS 14—affect the performance of a device. All charts and rankings are updated daily as new benchmark results come in.
