MobileMark 2007 measures system battery life in minutes. MobileMark 2007 records system battery life at the
start of the Productivity 2007 benchmark. It repeats the benchmark workload until the system battery life is
depleted, or until the system powers down due to low battery life. At the 7 percent battery life setting,
MobileMark 2007 records a timestamp once per minute. At the end of the benchmark, it compares the beginning
timestamp to the final (last recorded) timestamp. MobileMark 2007 derives its system battery life rating as the
number of minutes between the start and end timestamps.
We followed the run rules that BAPCo specifies for MobileMark 2007 here:

BAPCo SYSmark 2007 Preview v1.06
BAPCo’s SYSmark 2007 Preview v1.06 performance metric tests processor performance in the following four
office workload scenarios: e-learning, office productivity, video creation, and 3D modeling. SYSmark 2007
Preview records the time the system takes to complete each individual operation in each scenario. For more
information on this benchmark, see http://www.bapco.com/products/sysmark2007preview/.
FutureMark PCMark Vantage v1.0.2.0
FutureMark’s PCMark Vantage v1.0.2.0 benchmark suite tests system CPU and GPU performance, RAM speeds,
and hard drive read/write speeds. The benchmark runs common tasks such as video playback, audio and video
transcoding, data encryption, Windows mail, game testing, and web page rendering. For more information on this
benchmark, see http://www.futuremark.com/benchmarks/pcmarkvantage/introduction/.
FutureMark 3DMark06 v1.2.0
FutureMark’s 3DMark06 v1.2.0. benchmark suite tests system GPU DirectX
®
9 performance and CPU workload
processing performance, primarily to report a system’s 3D gaming capability. Tests include HDR rendering,
shadow mapping, and pixel shading. For more information on this benchmark, see
http://www.futuremark.com/benchmarks/3dmark06/introduction/.
FutureMark 3DMark Vantage v1.1.0
FutureMark’s 3DMark Vantage v1.1.0 benchmark suite tests system GPU DirectX10 performance, and requires
either Microsoft Windows Vista or Windows 7. 3DMark Vantage v1.1.0 includes testing of GPU-powered physics,
DirectX10-specific features, and procedural volumetric effects. Like 3DMark06 v1.2.0, 3DMark Vantage v1.1.0
provides an indication of a system’s 3D gaming capability. For more information on this benchmark, see
