It requires your phone to have Android 10 or higher before you can use the app. Why don't that list that requirement at the top of the page. If you don't have Android 10 installed on your phone then you can skip it and try something else.
Great!if people would just get to know the technical terms of benchmarkingand battery Temps in Celsius converting to Fahrenheit this tells you basically a complete layout of what was just performed!!
Great for the most part, but there's no way to benchmark an old or slow, vs new and fast device.
The UI of the app is very simple and easy to use. One thing I really like about the app is that it lets you compare your phone's performance with other phones and thats really good. Overall the app is pretty amazing, i would give this app a full five stars rating if there was a CPU and GPU usage icon.
Practically unusable on Android TV (tested on 2015 Sony Bravia TV and Xiaomi Mibox 3) because the test selection interface relies on swiping, an OS feature that is not available on most devices. Using a mouse should resolve the problem, but doesn't, as "mouse swiping" causes the UI to get stuck at which point it crashes back to the launcher. Edit: I've found it's possible to workaround the problem by connecting a game controller and using the shoulder buttons to access the test selection menu. I have revised my 1-star rating to reflect this.
Updated review: Turns out it's device model specific issue and very little that they can do. But are still helping me side load it. Giving them 5 stars because of the support and otherwise the app works flawlessly on other devices. Old review: Says Connection Error on Poco X2. They asked me to email support but they never replied, wasting my time further.
Worked perfect for me, I dont understand why so many people give 1 star. I think a lot of people dont understand what a benchmark is and shouldnt have downloaded this in the first place. This doesnt help your device run faster, it simply shows your systems current performance. And to the people who said its inaccurate because it changes when you use it over and over, this is known to happen with pretty much all phones. When you use your phone longer, the performance goes down until cooled down.
I bought this phone Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S last year August and downloaded the app, worked fine and can run all tests with accurate results but this time when I reinstalled it, it just says "unable to connect to UL servers." My wifi connection is even stable and runs on 110mb/s so I don't know why this app won't "connect." Tried uninstalling and reinstalling a lot of times but to no avail. I don't know why this app worked for my phone last year but this year it can't even start nor download tests
I haven't found a better way to measure & compare mobile device performance. If I were to do one thing, I would state the difference between Extreme and Extreme Unlimited with the Slingshot tests.
Best phone benchmarks. You can download the desired benchmark mode in the app according to your phone's capabilities or you can try all of them so you can know your phone score in those modes. Compare up to 5 phones based on different benchmarking modes. Keep in mind some modes are heavy so mid-range phones will probably get stuttering performance
Cross platform benchmarks and stress test is great. The compare feature helps determine how much performance could be gained by upgrading to a new phone. There are no ads and it's free! Great app.
allowed me to fix my phone. thanks to my understanding of CPUs and GPUs I was able to use this to narrow down the issue that my phone was facing. FYI results very greatly based on temp, sd % filled, etc. oh lost a star for missing my phone's exact type Moto z force. The Moto z force and the Moto z are 2 different phones. the force has higher specs and other pricey additions over the Moto z. After I fixed my phone I was placed on the 99th percentile, due to the phone listing as a regular Moto z.
device: Nokia 6.1 Plus. It tells me the Ice Storm is inefficient to test my device. But it runs well. Recommended Sling Shot. which loads quick enough but does nothing. The screen remains black for hours. Can't decide if it's working or not
Not great. The demo itself is OK. But what is missing is a continuous demo. All modes just end after a minute, so no way to let the phone running and drain the battery for example.
Great app. But why only 4 star? Cos there is no enough info to compare with other devices, only with the most modern phones. It is too easy to give the user the chance to compare with other phones since there are thousands of ppl using this app, so there is no need to spend any effort to do so because the app can collect this info like phones brand, cpu info, gpu ...etc automatically then build a good database for the users, which may contain not only the score, but also all the other phone's i
Awful user experience. I started slingshot test on my Samsung S7. The app played a video of a space ship, which I left running for a few minutes but it was still unclear if that was the test or ad. Eventually I pressed go back. The next screen showed please wait, test running. I left that running for 5 minutes, but still nothing. I do not know if it hung or I should have left it running longer, no progress bar. Maybe this release is broken? Or does not work on Samsung S7?
I don't know if my smartphone has problems or not but after installing and running the entire test I see huge drop in performance which I believe is about optimization platform and not the other way around.Moto G8 Power is pretty decent at specs hardware and looks strange lagging so badly.
Sling shot reliably crashes (freezes) after it finished. Not sure why that is, maybe compatibility issues... Revision : Also like others have said, it actually slows down your phone for some reason... I only installed the first test and it was using 800mb.. That tells me MEMORY LEAK simply. Also the app just keeps crashing now... 1 star would give 0 if possible
the best test I found so far. Works even with my 5 years old galaxy note 3. Antutu just crashed... And list and comparison of other phone is just amazing. I tried some other benchmarks and their list was pathetic often showing manufacture name instead of market name and many models seemed to missing. So this benchmark is far ahead of 4 benchmark I tested. Good job. Thank you. Maybe I would like if there is also separate RAM test. And size could be smaller. But awesome thx!
It doesnt show accurate results, i have checked many devices, even with high score devices doesnt work properly as compared to some low scored devices which works smoothly. Dont believe in these type of apps. NOTE:- IT ONLY WORKS FOR CORPORATE BUISNESS.
So the benchmarks are all good, the only problem is when you want to compare benchmarks of phones. I noticed some phones aren't on the ranking lists even though they show up when you search for them.
If you want a higher score and not happy with the first test, disable most apps from running in the background so your phone is free to run the test. Waste of time if you dont disable backround apps beforehand, i scored an extra 121 points from disabling background apps and updating colorOS. Dont be a noob, change your settings for better results!
Good to test your phone! Also a note to the developers, thank you for being responsive with human responses when people post reviews of issues and bugs and you guys get right on it. Great support and has been my go to benchmark for years. Also, some input, can some in-benchmark metrics like CPU temp, GPU load, CPU load as well during bench? That would be a nifty addition and show users how hot their phones get and how much load is being utilized. Thanks again for your continued commitment devs
Great benchmark for phones. I wish YouTubers use this more that just opening and closing apps
my go to bench mark for 3d/gaming every system tweak gets tested so I know they improve performance I've got to 97% higher than all S10+ tested I will find that 3% lol. apps never failed easy to use 5 stars
