Sunno S880 Benchmark

Description

The SPB Benchmark software runs a series of separate tests under the following headings:

-	Main

-	Sorage Cards

-	Battery

-	Active Sync

Setup:

I skipped the battery test: it involves things like brining it to full power, then allowing it to run out of power, then repeating under different conditions; hadn’t got the patience.

General: -	After initiating the test, I didn’t interact with the phone until the tests had run to completion.

-	Connections all off: phone, Bluetooth, wifi

-	Screen “lightness” set half-way and timeout for dimming set to 15 seconds.

Specific test setup-	Main, File – performed with the phone powered by the mains (but with the battery also at 100% power.)

-	Active Sync – performed with the phone connected to a HP laptop.

Results:

The Spb Benchmark “visualise results” didn’t work when the combined tests {Main, Storage Card, Active Sync} were in the results file, so I split out the storage card results and uploaded {Main, Active Sync}: it is possible that this could affect some of the cumulative results? Anyway I’ve copied the relevant part of the xml file below for the storage card test.

The comparand (iPaq 3650) has a 206 MHz Intel StrongARM SA-1110 32-bit RISC Processor (source ipaqrepair.co.uk)

-	The “Pocket Word” and “Internet Explorer” tests did do something, I could see stuff pop up on the screen (which came alive during the test), so it is possible that the test just failed to grab the results. IT IS POSSIBLE (PROBABLE?) that the cumulative Spb Benchmark index is incomplete or unreliable, given the few failures?

-	Note: for some values it would look like a low value is good (File system index?), but the hyperlinks on the spb site to explain the benchmarks seem to be broken, so I cannot be sure.
