pixel 7 user, 12 Jul 2023That's because Apple uses custom cores.That is true. But it’s also visible with Arm. Cortex A78 is more efficient than A710. And A55 hasn’t been beat by any of its successors.

          Instead of repeating the BS spewed by the company about this being a "new" chip, can't GSMArena at least be a bit objective and say that it is just a rebranded version of an old chip?

Midrang... moreEh I wouldn't really call it "ultra budget segment", since it's predecessor Dimensity 6080 a.k.a rebranded Dimensity 810 is still on par with Helio G99, which can't be called as an "ultra budget segment".

                        Hopefully this will bring 5G with 6GB/128GB w/ HD to US$ 110 segment
                        Or 8GB/256GB w/ FHD to $130 segment

                            I don't think mmWave is important
                            Even all 3 Korean carrier didn't continue investing mmWave and returning the license back to the government (otherwise they need to pay rent the frequency) because of mmWave not really good.

                              7+ Gen 2 is a 8+ Gen 1 downclocked, it has nothing to do in 7 serie...expensive to produce, probably sold under its costs to bother D8xxx serie.

                                The only Real Kryo is the one used on Snapdragon 820...all others are rebranded Cortex.
                                2xx is Cortex A73...
                                3xx is A75
                                4xx is A76...
                                Second digit is often linked to Ram bandwidth...260 is A73 with dual Channel, 280 is quad Channel.

                                Qualcomm has tons of rebranded/overclocked for years.
                                8+ gen 1 and 7+ Gen 2 (I think 7+ gen 2 is an anticompetitive move against D8x00, it's probably too expensive to produce and sold under its price)
                                865/865+/870
                                855/860
                                662/665
                                615/616/617
                                410/412/415
                                ...

                                I think Mediatek build some chip for some special OEM's demands.
                                Xiaomi said : "we want to build entry 5G but with 108MP camera"
                                Mediatek answered : "we will modify 6020 with a better ISP able to support 108MP, do you need 4k recording on it?"
                                Xiaomi : "we don't"
                                Mediatek : "ok"
                                And you've got a 6100+

                                Naming becomes a little complicated as the first digit is the level (9 for flagship, 8 for upper mid, 7 for mid, 6 for entry), the second is the generation (9200, 8200, 7200 are third gen...)
                                The 2 last digits allows some variants.
                                Rebranded soc used often x020, x050 or x080

                                6100+ is definitively not considered as a new soc in Mediatek's mind...if it was the case, the name would be 6200

                                  its crime for a 2024 phone still using cpu arm v8

                                  it should be arm v9 just like how sd 7+ gen 2 cpu...it kills all arm v8 cpu flagship with low price

                                    For the SD695 as i understand the 4 gen 1 just have same gpu so for gaming the Antutu v9 benchmark score is similar.
                                    4 gen 1 - (2x2.0 GHz Cortex-A78 & 6x1.8 GHz Cortex-A55)
                                    SD695 - (2x2.2 GHz Kryo 660 Gold & 6x1.7 GHz Kryo 660 Silver)

                                      All these dimensity chips are now so confusing.
                                      Also the autor of this title should eat less mushrooms or something to think that be for future mid range. i would say it is future mid budget range
