Bangalore: All said and done, iOS won. IOS devices can handle games on HTML5 three times faster than Google’s android.

A study by Spaceport.io the cross-platform mobile game development tool maker to determine the HTML5 performance across mobile browsers gave some not so surprising results where iOS was declared the undisputed winner for its high speed, reliability and quality and Google’s android was left limping far behind along with other native browsers.

PerfMarks is Spaceport.io’s own open-source benchmark tool which was used in testing the iOS and android range devices and the acid test was simple. How many images can be moved around a screen at one time, while maintaining 30 frames per second (FPS) frame rate? (The 30FPS is the minimum required frame rate for maintaining visual smoothness)

The iPad 2’s worst result was still better than the Android tablet’s best result. Even the best of all Android results was only 50% better than the iPad’s worst score reported Cult of Mac.

“HTML 5 is getting faster over time, as seen in the latest OS updates across Android and iOS. Although this is a welcome trend, there is still a long way to go,” said Spaceport.io founder, Ben Savage. “We hope the spaceport.io PerfMarks report will act as a bellwether for mobile browser and operating system creators who hope to better serve the HTML5 game development community.”
