Its signifi cantly stronger multi-core over single-
core performance in Geekbench 3 came as no
surprise then, with the UMI turning in 2489- and
445 points respectively. That's a good performance,
up there with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 and
nVidia Tegra 4 quad-core chips of this world and
phones such as the LG G3.
We also ran the UMI Zero through SunSpider and
GFXBench 3.0, in which is recorded 1090ms and
13fps (T-Rex) respectively. The JavaScript score isn't
bad, but the Mali-450MP4 graphics clearly aren't
up there with those of the best Android fl agships.
UMI notes that the MTK6592 Turbo abandons
Imagination PowerVR SGX. Nevertheless, we found
the Zero fi ne for watching movies and playing
games, although it could become very warm in use.
