my iphone 4s is faster than this

    Lovelandmark, 11 Oct 20221000C, not 1050. 1050 is, at least from CPU/GPU subsystem, ... moreI checked the GSMArena article and, sure enough, I stand corrected. My bad.

    Not sure why this chipset had to happen...maybe the 1050 will be limited to the US and this 1080 globally?

        Glenico353, 11 Oct 2022Watch this video on how the Cortex-A710 loses to Cortex-A78... moreSo we just have to wait for A715 and look forward that it will be a true successor to A78. And the way these SOC makers name their products is really confusing, from 920 to 1080, skipped 930 and the next.

          Anonymous, 11 Oct 2022The 660 is graphically more powerful than both the 662 and 665Indeed. 662 and 665 both pursue power efficiency as their position is gradually shifting into lower-mid range territory, hence the pick of newer, less-powerful-but-more-efficient Adreno 610. Still it's based on the same A73 cores as the ancient SD660. I do notice a comment regarding Helio G99, but at least with G99 it based on a technically more advanced Helio G96 (and sadly less graphical strength than its predecessor the G90/90+/95).

            Jimmy Potter, 11 Oct 2022Why aren't there many midrangers based on Cortex A710??Because ARM new design are bad, A78 is more efficient than A710. Lets wait for A715 maybe it will surpass A78 and became mainstream midrange core

              Bluewave, 11 Oct 2022Good Cpu from Mediatek, hope Redmi Note 12 will be equipped... moreThe Chinese note 12 series will most likely have this chip in at least some of the series which will be released within the next month. However, the global note series has been different than the Chinese one for the last few iterations so who knows about the global note 12 series

                Glenico353, 11 Oct 2022Watch this video on how the Cortex-A710 loses to Cortex-A78... moreI'd take more power and torque over bogus efficiency, with a bigger 700mah battery

                  Anonymous, 11 Oct 2022Feels to me that this is somewhat a wasted product. Still A... moreWatch this video on how the Cortex-A710 loses to Cortex-A78 in power efficiency while having the same performance. The A710 is just a more power-hungry version of the A78.

                  Plus the MediaTek Dimensity 8100 still uses A78 and has similar power efficiency to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865.

                    What is up with these numbers Mediatek is using to name there chips. 1080 is like Nvidia Geforce graphics card. 920 is like Nokia Lumia.

                    All of there numbers are like from something before. But well never mind it's not like other chip brands are better. Snapdragon with there new naming is even worse 8 gen 1, 8+ gen 1, 8 gen 2 and so on. Just cause they run out of numbers with there old series now get more confusing

                      No GPU bump, the same g68mc4. It's worse than G710mc3 inside the 1050, but not too much. The 8000/8100 got a G710MC6, so basically, 1050 has half of the performance of 8XXX series. But the cores inside the 1050 could be running on the higher speed, than the 8100. I was hoping for someting like G710MC4 inside the successor of dimensity 920/1050. But hey, what's the point of all of this, when manufacturers will use the very same dimensity 700, and the only phone with 1050 is a Motorola Edge for the US market

It's like saying the Dimensity 1300 is more powerful than the Dimensity 1200 (yes by 2%).The 1050 is barely faster than a Dimensity 800 series and was just called 1000 Serie to attract attention. The 1080 may finally he worth of a 1000 class soc

                          Anonymous, 11 Oct 2022Again Mediatek selling same crap as new. I'm wonderin... moreJust like Qualcomm they only release monster chipsets in middle class every few years. The Dimensity 1000+ was a monster but the 1300 is being crushed by the competition. The Dimensity 820 was very powerful but then the 800U and 820 are practically useless (and actually slower than the previous 800)

                              The fact it still cannot do 4K at 60fps speaks volumes

                                Exactly. SD660 (from 2017, 14nm, based on A73) = SD680 (2022, 6nm, same A73)

                                This same thing is done by mediatek with Helio G99
                                Helio G96 ( 12nm ) = Helio G99 ( 6nm ) {rest r same}

                                  Vikass17, 11 Oct 2022A78 and A55 are best till date .Don't be stupid, Mediatek 1080 is a good Chipset 👍

                                      The same 1050
