How will your mobile device perform when push comes to crunch? How will it compare to the newest devices on the market? Find out today with Geekbench 7. Test the performance of your iPhone or iPad and compare your results with Geekbench – a leader in CPU and GPU benchmarking. TEST YOUR DEVICES Quickly test how fast your tablets and phones are with Geekbench's trusted CPU and GPU benchmark tests. COMPARE YOUR RESULTS Geekbench shows benchmark results in an easily-understood set of numbers. Your scores are automatically uploaded to Geekbench Browser where you can share & compare your scores against the newest devices on the market. NEW AND UPDATED REAL-WORLD TESTS Geekbench tests reflect how people use their devices. Instead of just crunching digits of pi for an hour or doing 80 different versions of the same task, Geekbench's tests measure tasks like how quickly a device can load an example website, render a PDF, add filters to photos, and process HDR. These tests are precisely crafted to ensure that results represent real-world use cases and workloads. In Geekbench 7, we've added several new tests, including: * Sharing your screen in video conferencing * Watching videos with auto-generated captions * Simulating game physics. CPU BENCHMARK Test your processor's single-core and multi-core power for everything from browsing the web to editing photos to streaming videos, or all of it at once. New media tests in Geekbench 7 measure performance in video conferencing, streaming, and content consumption, and a redesigned multi-core benchmark only runs tests multi-threaded when real applications do, so your scores reflect how software actually uses your device. GPU BENCHMARK Test your system's potential for gaming, image processing, or video editing with the GPU Benchmark. Test your GPU's power with support for the OpenCL, Metal, Vulkan, and CUDA APIs. New to Geekbench 7 is a focus on Machine Learning, with tests that measure real-time face tracking and image upscaling. CROSS-PLATFORM Compare apples and oranges. Or Apples and Samsungs. Designed from the ground-up for cross-platform comparisons, Geekbench allows you to compare system performance across devices, operating systems, and processor architectures. TRUSTED BY EXPERTS "Geekbench is one of the easiest and fastest ones to run and will show you how your device stacks up against the competition in a few key areas" - The Verge
