Snapdragon 845 benchmarks show an incredible GPU, faster CPU

12 February 2018
The processor performance gains are incremental, but on the GPU side the only current competition is Apple.

john, 12 Feb 2018wow thats impressive great job but am pretty sure sammy's e... moreYeah so much better than an S8 cant reach 60 fps in a game like world of tank blitz ( with all graphic detail options turn to max ) where a SD835 can..

to make matter worst a lg g5 run the same game at 55 to 60 fps where Samsung s7 have a hard time reaching 30 fps in same game.

Sorry but exynos is really good at battery optimisation and sometime a tad better on cpu but always beaten on gpu and more often its throttle more ( except the sd 810 lol )

      Nick, 12 Feb 2018Slightly behind Apple's A11 in GPU, on the CPU end the gap ... moreon 50% 0f test its beat apple A11 gpu on others test its get beaten so no A11 gpu is not ahead.

        AI, 12 Feb 2018Still games and apps are better optimised for iOS. No matte... moreAndroid has access to low level graphic api similar to metal so no when its come to graphic its can be as good.

        This is why current SD 835 soc run game like world of tank blitz at max detail with every graphic setting turned to max at a steady 60 fps just like iphone 8 do.

        So tired of apple lover lies..

          Tech-9, 12 Feb 2018Really no sense for that much horsepower when android apps ... moreMan 845 wont cost much if MI7 with this CPU could cost 350 eur for a whole phone.
          Thats maybe up to 70 per CPU.

                      2800 MHz * 0.97 ≈ 2700 for GB

                      That's pretty good

                              Who knows.

                                dladz, 12 Feb 2018Exynos hasn't been anywhere near qualcomm in some time mate... moreNo its actually good we in the UK get Exynos, its sad for America who get snapdragon on their Samsung devices.

                                We get the lag free more battery efficient CPU.

                                  There is no any chance to arrival nvidia SoC in smartphone's world apart from pixel c and LG Maximus Decimus Meridius Paulinus etc.. We've no chances anymore unfortunately

                                    like saying (not sure it was 6s or 7) is able to produce graphics for game like PS4 which is bullshit in term of actual engineering!(every one who ever watched for PS4 hardware knows it can stream almost 200+ GB/s of data which is impossible for a phone like 6s or 7)

                                      There seems to be a slowdown in Snapdragon's process improvements in every generation. The improvements are getting less noticeable.
                                      On the other hand Apple claims to be making smartphones with supercomputer comparable SoCs, which doesn't translate into a smartphone that takes DSLR quality photos or RED Camera quality video.So while those numbers seem great on benchnark tests, they don't really seem to do much for actual quality.
                                      I still remember that the iPhone was the last to the 4k video race, and still produces low resolution screens for the majority of its phones.
                                      I am actually looking forward to the Exynos version of the S9. And, hoping that Samsung hasn't allowed Snapdragon to slow down their device or reduce its video and photo capabilities because the Snapdragon 845 can't keep up.
