AnonD-990158, 20 May 20222.4Ghz 78 would just be another 780G, so of course its 710Isn't the 870 just another 865 by that logic? How can you say they won't do that again?

    Again shame for Qualcomm! No 4k@60fps record! No 6k@30fps!

      Anonymous, 20 May 2022Such a big article and no mention of the CPU cores usedTo be fair, it's more of how Qualcomm rolls trying to hide it. Just pay for it because we say it's good.

        Rkm, 20 May 2022It's not a rebranded 870 "lolz". These use a... moreWhere did it say it was using A710 and A510? I must have missed it.

          Grey Wolf, 20 May 2022So, this will be the direct competitor of the Dimensity 810... moreAnd count on, atleast the Mediatek chips will be more energy effective.

                I know the 870 uses Cortex-A77 for the performance cores, and the frequencies are not even the same as 7 Gen 1, so yeah, calling this rebrand, is just BS.

                  FatShady, 20 May 2022whats the point if they already have the 870? The 870, while a good chip, is obsolete (and based on the 865). They need to release a successor for it, with 888+ performance, but better thermal management and efficiency.

                    Hemedans, 20 May 2022thats old news, D920 phones are more expensive compare to s... moreThat's because somehow dimensity 920 isp have beaten 780g'isp (778g) which have resulted in OEM using 920 a bit on the upper side of 778 ex -realme 9pro+5g vs realme 9 SE .
                    But I would suggest to get 778g if you are getting it for lower price and yes realme 9 pro+5g 's camera is hella lot better than any other realme phone right now .I dunno how though.

                      [deleted post]No! That person saying "lol" is right. This is definitely not a rebrand of SD 870! You could simply say that they are similar and pause it right there.

                      Sometimes, I wonder if some people actually know what "rebranding" of a product means.

                        Hemedans, 20 May 2022You think Xiaomi, Oppo, Samsung and other dont know About S... moreOh, someone already beat me to it.

                        One thing though, buyer perception could also contribute to the reasons why brands use SD. Most phone enthusiasts lean towards Qualcomm. Many as still biased against Mediatek due to its past.

                          Anonymous, 20 May 2022Because brands think snapdragon is better. Also withv8g1 th... moreI do think the brands know better than us.

                          If not for my need to flash xiaomi.eu, though, I'd go for a phone rocking Mediatek. Simply because of the relatively cheaper price, by the way.

                              7 series are almost perfect. No need to spend your kidney for 8 series.

                                Grey Wolf, 20 May 2022So, this will be the direct competitor of the Dimensity 810... morethats old news, D920 phones are more expensive compare to sd 778G phones, even though sd 778G is much better soc, same to sd 695 vs dimensity 700/810. you can get phone with sd 778G for under $300.

                                unless something happen, sd 7 gen 1 will be much cheaper compare to d8100. seems like D8100 has same price point as sd888 2022 phones.

                                  PakHuySun, 20 May 2022i hope Chinese brands will ditch SD 695 and use 7 Gen 1 in ... moreJumping from SD 695 straight to SD 7 Gen 1? 😂

                                    IpsDisplay, 20 May 2022That's not the full story business is not just about &... morecan you provide proof? of what you say?

                                    Samsung as Largest Manufacture they choose soc as they want, in 2015 due to sd 810 problems they even went with full exynos S and note series. The reason Mediatek is No 1 in Marketshare is Because Samsung low end use Mediatek, A12 at some time it was best selling phone.

                                    we saw other Chinese Oem release Flagship with D9000, D8100 etc, lot of midrange with d920, 810 and even D700 is more popular compare to sd 480 even though 480 is better soc.

                                    why doesnt Qualcomm force those oem to Use sd 480?

                                    why same Oem who use lot of dimensity 700 last year upgrade to sd695?

                                      If this gets implemented on the Samsung galaxy a53s or a63 it will make them more demanding I think... the time will tell🤷‍♂️

                                        Dimensity 1300 is still superior in gaming performance than 8 gen 1, so 8100 will definitely smash it.
