HIARCS is the only handheld chess program in the world which has won Grandmaster
tournaments. In August 2009 it won the 2009 Mescosur Cup in Buenos Aires,
Argentina ahead of Grandmasters, while scoring an incredible undefeated 9˝/10
points (9 wins, one draw). This is a performance of 2938 Elo which is the best
chess performance rating for any handheld device in history and higher than
Garry Kasparov's peak Elo rating! HIARCS also has the second and third
best ever chess performances on handhelds as well having won two other
Grandmaster tournaments. It also has many match wins over Grandmasters in the
past 4 years.
In this tournament HIARCS ran on a HTC Touch HD (ARM/528Mhz) mobile device.

16... Qxf6 17. Ne4 Bxe4 18. fxe4 Esta posición es muy parecida a la de la partida Radjabov-Bareev, Odessa 2007, aunque en este caso, mucho más favorable a las blancas, ya que f7 no está defendido por la torre negra.
