15 May, 2016
Sony could have picked a more powerful chipset, but instead went with Qualcomm's mid-range.

Tann Hauser, 16 May 2016I dont see sammy A9 with 652 performing better in benchmark... moreAnd if you dont see snap 652 performing better than benchmarks then go for your eyecheckup, i know phone is better than a9 , but price is more than s7 :v

          AnonD-535358, 16 May 2016This processor doesn't even come close to the sd 810,or 808... moreIn what part of benchmarking is sd 652, say, on Sammy A9 better than sd650 in X?
          You talk nonsense

            AnonD-105859, 16 May 2016It mid-range chipset but you never think the hight quality ... moreYep, the price is OK for high midrange soc bundeled with 23/13 mpx cameras, hi res audio, fingerprint sensor, qnovo battery, etc

              AnonD-535358, 16 May 2016This processor doesn't even come close to the sd 810,or 808... moreAbsolutely wrong

                And 650 is much better than 808 overall.
                A9 not being on this comparisson list is quite questionable though, as it is one to be compared with X in benchmarks and not flags with 820, 810 SoCs....
                As usual here, a deliberately wrong report

                  Anonymous, 16 May 2016This processor is faster than 808 in the CPU part. 100% agree with you.snapdragon 650 soc just like snapdragon 810 soc.I don't why did they do that,but it's really flagship fast soc.

                      This processor doesn't even come close to the sd 810,or 808...the 652 is way better

                        Great phone,
                        sd 650 is a midrange SoC but everything elseon that phone is flag range
                        The price is right, especially considering the rest toptier competition...

                                AnonD-512552, 16 May 2016the gpu is kinda a let-down...gpu is strong for mid range chipset.
                                outdated 28 nm is a letdown because 20nm/14nm is common now. sd 650 become quite warm and only able to reach 1.8GHz. Should able to reach 2.3~2.5GHz if it use 14nm node

                                      It mid-range chipset but you never think the hight quality of camera it not mid
                                      And any thing that other mid-range smartphone doesn't have
