3DMark for iPhone and iPad gets updated with 64-bit version

Futuremark has updated the 3DMark app for iOS to version 1.2.0 that brings a new 64-bit version to test the new iOS devices with a 64-bit processor including the iPhone 5s, iPad Air and the iPad mini with Retina display. Scores from those devices will improve slightly with this update, says the company. Recently Futuremark started delisting Android devices with suspicious scores from the 3DMark charts. The company still continues to delist devices from the chart, which now applies to iOS devices as well, after the new update. Delisted devices appear unranked, and without scores, at the bottom of the 3DMark Device Channel.

Here is the complete changelog of the v1.2.0 update

New
