#Note 4 geekbench update
It also begs the question, would Samsung have committed to providing this update if users hadn’t discovered what GOS was doing?īe that as it may, Samsung joins others like OnePlus who have had devices delisted from Geekbench for also throttling apps. What it didn’t explain is whether this button will apply the setting side-wide or will users have to manually select the option for every app that they don’t want to be throttled. If enabled, the option will force GOS to prioritize peak performance over everything else.
#Note 4 geekbench software
It did confirm that a software update will be released in the future to add a Performance Priority button. Samsung has responded to the controversy by saying that GOS is used to prevent its devices from overheating. We view this as a form of benchmark manipulation as major benchmark applications, including Geekbench, are not throttled by this service. GOS decides to throttle (or not to throttle) applications using application identifiers and not application behavior. It’s not banning the Galaxy Note and A series since they don’t appear to be impacted by GOS. Geekbench has confirmed that it’s going to delist the new Galaxy S22 series from the Geekbench Browser in addition to the entire Galaxy S10, Galaxy S20 and S21 series. So when the user runs a benchmark, the CPU and GPU are allowed to run at peak performance. Benchmark apps like 3D Mark and Geekbench remain untouched. Despite running powerful hardware, these devices thus prevent users from extracting the best performance from them. GOS slows down GPU and CPU performance on Samsung smartphones for games and apps.
Geekbench is booting Samsung devices from its browser Popular smartphone benchmarking service Geekbench has now confirmed that its banning select Samsung phones over this app throttling. This shady behavior has already made fans furious. What stood out was that GOS wasn’t slowing down benchmark apps. The service throttles both CPU and GPU performance for over 10,000 apps that even include the likes of TikTok and Instagram. It was discovered earlier this week that Samsung’s GOS (Games Optimization Service) was artificially slowing down apps.
