Basemark OS II 2.0.0.0
For such purposes, specialized tools have been devised and if you are looking for a benchmarking utility to try onto your mobile device, Basemark OS II might be a viable alternative.
Clean graphics and efficient layout
As soon as you launch the application for the first time you will notice the simple layout the quite decent design of the graphical elements of the interface. The content as well as the functions are neatly arranged inside the various sections of the utility.
The layout is designed for practical use, allowing you to view the test results, for example, in a nicely colored graph with clearly lined out numbers. Browsing through the several section of the utility is done smoothly and without delays or other kind of glitches.
Automatic testing and accurate results
When using Basemark OS II for the first time, you can start by running all the tests to get an overview of the capabilities of your device as a whole.
The benchmarking procedure takes a few minutes, as the verifications are pretty thorough and the good thing is that you will don't have to configure anything.
There are several storage tests, a couple designed exclusively for the phone's processor, while the graphics, memory and web capabilities are also checked with extra care and during several sessions.
Share scores and view device info on the fly
Basemark OS II can show you some basic data concerning the handset on which it is installed and running, so you can check out the manufacturer, model and OS details, as well as some hardware information about CPU cores, renderer capabilities and more.
Unfortunately, not all the data seems to be precise, as on the Nokia Lumia 1520 test device the screen resolution was reported erroneously as being lower.
The utility offers a neat feature that is meant to allow you to publish and compare your results on the dedicated section of the developer website, so you can see where your device ranks. The benchmark results are also kept inside the dedicated section of the app and you can go through them at any moment by swiping left to check out the older ones.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The nice look and feel of this application is supported by well designed graphs and a convenient layout. |
Function7
The tests are pretty detailed and the results quite accurate, but there are faults in identifying correctly system components and capabilities. |
Security10
The utility is very discreet and doesn't look inside any system areas unrelated to its actual functionality. |
Battery2
The very high power consumption of Basemark OS II will drain the battery fast, especially when using it for longer periods of time. |
Price10
A valuable application thanks to the fact that it offers a decent amount of info at no costs and without nuisances. For more functions there is a paid version as well. |

Windows Phone 8 and above devices should have no problems when it comes to installing and running this application. |
