Mediatek sux, 17 Jun 2020They put that in the note 7 pro, it was very popular and pr... moreI have a Redmi Note 7 Pro. I'm not sure why that SoC never caught on. The only thing I can imagine is that they were able to provide more value in gaming with Snapdragon 700s and mobile gaming is a big deal where these high value mid-range phones are released.

Anonymous, 17 Jun 2020But it is a 7nm chip. So 2.6ghz will be efficient. Learn ... moreHahahahahahaha bro i know very well i think u don't know how to read the full article i know its 7nm chip and u should know that being made on 7nm is not only the single factor even the exynos 990 is on 7nm and u saw it how much heat it produced.And u are saying 7nm is the only factor hahahahaha............its not the only factor.And yes 2.6ghz is efficient even 2.8ghz is efficient its on how many cores that frequency is maintained.And yes a77 can push upto 3.0ghz also so 7nm is not the only reason of efficiency architectural improvements and other things are also their and cpu is also not ur piece of cake

giving the chip to brands like HMD, LG, Sharp and so on dont exactly make any phones more affordable. These just get more profit as they are not the brands that make good phones for bang of the buck.

Anonymous, 17 Jun 2020USA is probably with 5GE and sub 6Ghz coverage.... "The maj... more"Sub 6Ghz 5G is based on 5G network and offers 4G+ speeds in a good day because is not wide available yet . The mmWave is true 5G with GB/s speeds."
Incorrect. Both Sub-6GHz and mmWave are true 5G. The 5G networks based on sub-6GHz can reach multiple Gb/s speed when proper "density" of base stations is reached. As a matter of fact, in some parts of some countries using sub-6Ghz, speed larger than 1Gb/s has already been reached. On paper, it is easier to reach higher speed with mmWave, but this is still a "theoretical" advantage as of today, since mmWave still doesn't have a practical way to deliver that advantage. In terms of actual technological development, mmWave is way way behind sub-6GHz. According to Wilbur Ross (US commerce minister) in his speech delivered in India in February (2020), mmWave is 3 years behind sub-6Ghz. I don't trust Wilbur Ross's judgement. It will take more than 3 years for mmWave to catch up with sub-6Ghz. By that time, the sub-6Ghz deployed in many countries will have reached the proper "density" to deliver 5G speed much higher than 1Gb/s.
5G is not just about speed. It is about many things including:
1) eMBB (enhanced Mobile Broadband);
2) URLLC (Ultra Reliable Low Latency Communications);
3) mMTC (massive Machine Type Communications).
A very basic 5G network, when properly implemented, delivers many advantages a best implemented 4G network can't deliver.

This is thanks to the competition. Just imagine if Mediatek was coming up capable SoCs… QCom would be cruising. Competition is good.

There is no ... moreCpu does determine price of phone.
You can't put SD865 in 200 dollar phone and sell it.
Neither would someone but Sd6xx series at 800 dollar price.
You are just saying this coz your beloved Sony is selling subpar SD665 at 385 euros where other phones in that price range offer SD855.

60% gpu gain... You can tell qualcomm was deliberately making their SOC super weak to milk qualcomm fans of their money
Now qualcomm doesn't have a chance , midranger competition is to heated
I hope the rumor of the Amd C7 flagship soc is true for next year
I'm a fanboy of competition

Viper, 17 Jun 2020Yeah bro all flagship has 4big cores but lets dig deep insi... moreI was in no way comparing the dimensity 800 with the sd865, and it would be stupid to do so, I was just saying that having 4 power cores gives the chip set and advantage compared to only 2, this is an soc we could compare with the sd845, it uses the same architecture but with a newer 7nm process, there is no mid-range soc from Snapdragon to this moment that could be equal to the sd845, and I'm talking speed and performance only. Yes the 7xx series are way more efficient than the sd845, even slightly more than the dimensity 800, but this doesn't change the fact that the mediatek chip set is much more powerful.

Anonymous, 17 Jun 2020You can check all these comparaisons mi 9t lasted longer th... moreLonger, depends on what you put at it. At least on this web, 9Tpro lasted longer. And for normal day to day usage, the difference would be negligible. The higher drain only comes in during heavy game, taxing the extra 2 A76 cores. Other than that you probably won't see a difference since most day to day task are handled with the A55 cores.
End of the day, whether 4+4 or 2+6, it shouldn't be the key criteria when it comes to significant battery efficient or whether it should be a mid-range or flagship chips.
Those depends largely on the manufacturing process and technology involved, and when you use it for comparison. ie would you compare the so call 835/845 to current generation flagship like the 865, or a midrange like the 765? the SD652, 636 was a 4+4 setup, was it considered a flagship previously? Nope, because they are clocked slower and using a more outdated cortex.
