CPU-Z – Review

CPU-Z is a free system profiling application for Windows that has finally been released as a beta for Android. Many of you may have used the PC version at some stage, so will have a good idea what to expect. The app is only 193k, and follows the Holo guidelines. Information is neatly displayed in 4 tabs for easy viewing, SOC, System, Battery, and Sensors with a final “About” tab giving you the option to send debug info and change the temperature units to either Celsius or Fahrenheit. That’s pretty much all there is to it.

There are plenty of apps out there that will give you much the same information, but I think CPU-Z has the edge when it comes to presentation.

It’s not something everyone will be interested in, but it’s great to see it available for Android, and will be interesting to see how it evolves.
