Operations
The company developing the software is based in Chaoyang District, Beijing,[3] and was cofounded by Chinese entrepreneurs Shào Yīng (邵英)[4] and Liáng Bīn (梁斌).[5]
Circumvention
The AnTuTu benchmark is so common that some hardware manufacturers have cheated on the benchmark which makes the benchmark unreliable.[6][7] In response to this, AnTuTu has created a new benchmark, called AnTuTu X, which makes it more difficult for manufacturers to cheat on the benchmark. [7][8][9]
