Introduction

Real-world mobile game power consumption varies significantly across rendering complexity, frame rate, and device workload distribution. Based on collected production data from multiple live games, we analyzed how frame rate and system-level workloads influence overall energy usage.

This article summarizes observed power consumption patterns, provides empirical reference ranges, and outlines key practices for stable and reliable power profiling.

1. Frame Rate Has a Significant Impact on Power Consumption

One of the most consistent findings across multiple games is that frame rate directly affects power consumption.
