![]() ![]() So far, there’s no official response from the company. It would be interesting to see how this story unfolds and if OnePlus will take any action. The effect is very similar though – benchmarks scores would indicate a level of performance that just isn’t there for apps. Instead OxygenOS was found run at its designed limit during benchmarks, whereas just about every other app gets less than the full performance. According to the publication, the OnePlus 9 Pro is limiting the performance of the Snapdragon 888 SoC in all the applications from Google and Microsoft. It’s not quite the same case as the cheating modes in the past where manufacturers will tune their phones so they ignore thermal limits when running benchmarks. In Geekbench’s books, this is performance manipulation and will also look into other OnePlus devices to see if the same applies to them as well. Or in other words, the system looks for specific apps to utilize its full performance rather than boosting performance when any app demands it. Geekbench says that the system makes performance decisions based on the applications’ identifiers rather than behavior. That’s why Geekbench took the action of removing the OnePlus 9 and 9 Pro from its database. However OxygenOS would not offer the limited performance to benchmarking apps, which Geekbench sees as cheating. ![]() In essence, the OxygenOS analyzes the apps it will more often than not limit the performance in what we assume is a bid to extend battery life. In a recent lengthy and in-depth investigation, AnandTech found a very interesting “optimization” on the OnePlus 9 and 9 Pro when it comes to various apps.
