Geekbench Accuses Samsung of Throttling Its Devices, Removes Four Years of Galaxy Flagships
As mentioned earlier, Geekbench has delisted the last four years of Galaxy devices which includes all models of the Galaxy S22, Galaxy S21, Galaxy S20, and Galaxy S10. No changes have been put forth for the Galaxy A series and Galaxy Note models. Geekbench took drastic action after it was found that One UI 4’s GOS software was throttling thousands of apps to improve battery life as well as maintain performance. Geekbench stated in a tweet: Samsung has taken note of the situation and pledged to release an update with the ability to directly control the device performance for games and other apps. Geekbench does not plan to add the delisted devices back on the list even after Samsung issues a patch. In addition to this, Samsung has not given us an exact time frame for when the update will arrive for the affected devices.
