Can't figure out what the point of cheating is. Just have a switch in the settings for "game mode" or "full performance mode" with a warning about battery life and heat, and let the user pick whatever he likes. Casual users don't go into settings so they won't even know about it, while the more serious people will turn it on for games and then turn it off when not needed.

makes sense, but phone makers assume 99% people are casuals so why bother for that 1%.

But I have to wonder how many of the casuals actually look or understand benchmark scores. All they care is there is Candy Crush and Angry Birds on the particular phone.
