Xiaomi applies temperature control strategies to ensure the best product experience, especially with challenging applications commonly used for extended periods. In many of our devices, we offer 3 performance modes, allowing users to adjust the balance of performance and energy efficiency. […] At the system level, all application performance improvements weigh several critical factors such as power consumption, performance, and thermal impact.

Xiaomi has shared similar “improvements” in the past, with the Xiaomi 11T Pro using different performance profiles for specific applications. A profile with faster acceleration is enabled for applications that the system reads as games.

Geekbench regards this mechanism as a form of manipulation. Benchmark founder and president John Paul told Android Police that he intends to remove affected Xiaomi phones with “performance profiles” soon:

It is disappointing to see another hardware manufacturer misleading consumers by reducing application performance but not benchmark performance. We are investigating affected Xiaomi devices and expect to begin removing Xiaomi devices from our Android benchmarking chart later this week.
