CPU-Z for Android is a powerful tool that provides comprehensive information about your device's hardware. This free application, modeled after the well-known PC version, offers detailed insights that can be crucial for tech enthusiasts and professionals alike.
With CPU-Z, you can explore various aspects of your device:
- SoC (System On Chip): Get the name, architecture, and clock speed for each core, helping you understand your device's processing capabilities.
- System Information: Learn about your device's brand and model, screen resolution, RAM, and storage, which are essential for assessing your device's overall performance.
- Battery Information: Check the battery level, status, temperature, and capacity to keep an eye on your device's power management.
- Sensors: Identify the sensors equipped in your device, which can be useful for understanding its capabilities and limitations.
To use CPU-Z, your device must run on Android 2.2 or a higher version (applicable for version 1.03 and above). The application requires specific permissions:
- INTERNET: This permission is necessary for the online validation feature, which is available from version 1.04 onwards. The validation process stores your device's hardware specifications in a database and provides a validation URL that can be accessed through your internet browser. Optionally, you can enter your email address to receive a reminder link.
- ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: This permission is used for gathering statistics, enhancing the application's functionality.
If CPU-Z encounters a bug and closes unexpectedly, the settings screen will appear during the next launch (version 1.03 and above). This screen allows you to disable main detection features, ensuring the application runs smoothly. In case of any issues, you can send a debug report by selecting "Send Debug Infos" from the application menu.
