3DMarkMobile06 is the first benchmark designed specifically to benchmark next generation OpenGL ES 1.0 and OpenGL ES 1.1 hardware accelerated mobile handsets and is developed in cooperation with Khronos members; including ARM, ATI, Bitboys, DMP, Falanx, Imagination Technologies, Intel, NVIDIA and Symbian. The benchmark delivers a variety of performance tests that measure mobile 3D hardware using OpenGL ES and will assist the industry to deliver 3D-enabled handhelds that are fast, powerful, and efficient. An end-user friendly of 3DMarkMobile06 is expected to be launched later next year to enable consumers to conduct their own benchmarking of handsets with hardware accelerated 3D graphics.
