Most of the low end Mediatek devices make use of inferior quad core Cortex A53 which takes time to open an app, takes time to play games, and so on. If you want a fast phone, I would suggest getting a phone with a Mediatek Helio P60 and above. That phone has 4x Cortex A73 cores which give a power boost, and makes loading apps a breeze.

          Surprisingly, Mediatek supports newer Android literations in lower end devices. I gave the chance to the Redmi 6A and with global Pie rom, it will be the cheapest device which supports it officially. It's way to go again!

MediaTek don't know what optimization is. That's why MediaTek powered phones will work very very slow after few months. My suggestion is buy decent android phone powered by Snapdragon and it will work good even after three years.

                      I'm genuinely excited about this. The fact that it takes 4K60fps video means that this thing may be comparable if not, better than the Snapdragon 845 and I'm all for that.
