Where we tested it
The silence test
TaskThe model had to stay quiet for a moment; the correct reply had zero characters.
It stayed silent in four of six tries, every time in English. In Czech it once sent a zipper-mouth emoji, and to the request for a moment of quiet it replied “OK.”
Dragon
TaskThe model's task was to draw a picture of a dragon as an SVG.
Two dragons worth 31 and 29 points out of 50, a shared 10th and a shared 14th place among 34.
You'll find the size band and figures for other models on the Tested models page.
