Geekbench 6 for iPhone

Free device benchmarking tool

Geekbench 6 is a free-to-use utility from Primate Labs, Inc. The sixth iteration of the popular benchmarking platform comes with new features while retaining the ability to check device performances. In this mobile app, you can test your CPU and GPU performance and compare how it fares against other devices in the market.

Geekbench 6 is similar to other benchmarking apps like AnTuTu Benchmark, LDS Benchmark, or Benchmark ESG Gensuite. These are mainly used to test a device if it can run new apps and systems. While this version brings new features, it still has the restrictions of common benchmarking apps.

Test your device limits

Geekbench 6 continues the long line of Geekbench software, which traces its origins to computers back in 2006. The first Android version came out in 2012 and since then, it has continued evolving to keep up with rapid technological advancements. Layout-wise, this sixth iteration sports the same straightforward design that makes it intuitive both for old and new users. You can test the device's CPU and GPU performances.

One specific feature of the app is its ability to conduct real-world tests. More than simply checking the computational abilities of your device, it tests its ability to complete actual tasks such as rendering a PDF or loading a website. It has also updated most of its tests, such as websites adapted to modern standards or photos following modern smartphone resolutions.

There are still a couple of bugs that affect the app’s accuracy in delivering results. For one, certain tests provide an arbitrary score, but without a reference to tell users if it’s good or bad by modern standards. Also, one persisting restriction with Geekbench and other benchmarking is its failure to include certain factors in computing performance, chief among them your device temperature at the time of the test.

An industry standard

Over the years, Geekbench has established itself as a reliable name in the benchmarking segment. It continues this industry-trusted streak with Geekbench 6. By retaining the streamlined app layout users have known and loved, it keeps the platform accessible to new mobile users. Also, the tests are now updated to better reflect the changing landscape, although it still has general benchmarking restrictions.
