              If this is indeed more efficient that Snapdragon, it will prove the point that ARM chip designs have a noticeable theoritical and real world difference, especially for performance, battery abd heat management, beyond merely node size.

                And it seems that in power efficiencty those D9300 is better than 8Gen3
                Really wow

                  The latest benchmark from a tested phone shows that MediaTek D9300 has a slight edge over the SD8 Gen 3 in terms of efficiency, and a huge improvement from 9200+.

                      But it didn't did properly as they didn't have any rooted mobile yet. Maybe after vivo 100 they will do it properly. Like gen3 review which was also based on benchmark provided by company itself. You can watch it now or wait for better review.
                      What else tech channel do you watch brother?

                          They always speak about 40%+ more performance and power efficiency and eventually my battery needs to be charged everyday. With such improvements every year my battery should be lasting a week by now. And I am not talking specifically about Mediatek, I mean Qualcomm and all others too.
                          I think it's because you get background espionage bloatware in every new phone because the higher performance can handle it, so the power consumption remains the same. 🤷‍♂️

                            It's a shame efficiency still gets totally neglected.

                                Mills, 06 Nov 2023big.LITTLE sounds cool and nerdy (in a good way)I must comment on this insight post again, it's one od those "For Those who know!"

                                for those who don't
                                big.Little is a direct reference to the chip architecture native to Arm based processors - like Apple & IBM G5 cpu (world's first true 64-bit processor for consumers and business - none server based on IBM's Power 5 server course way back. Also Apple+IBM+Motorola consortium G4 and G3 cpu's of the 90's also.

                                Every cellphone after 1994 used RISC based cpus - which used big.Little machine order code. There is a LOT more to it but it's the halo to power efficiency and lately the past several years great performance.

                                Soon consumer performance desktops will all fall in line as well. Note: the most powerful server cpu's are RISC based as well!

                                Take note for the future.

                                  Mills, 06 Nov 2023big.LITTLE sounds cool and nerdy (in a good way)Oh yeah always has since "Yeah, RISC is good!" By Burn - Hackers ;)

                                  Or even before that by Acorn computers which through buyouts and public trading evolution became Arm Holdings Inc. (Engineers change for course but the core foundation traces its roots to Computing from (UK).

                                    Do you research!

                                    Lead and original engineers of Apple Silicon left Apple to create Nuvia which was purchased by Qualcomm and innovated leaps and bounds to surpass performance in 1 yr by 2 generations of Apple Silicon M1 and M2 series (save for the M2 Ultra) and at 30% less power.

                                    Stop speaking verbatim to make yourself sound cool, it's not working.

                                      yes , competition CPU, and win win for consumer

                                        I think the ARM Consortium needs to introduce a new processor.
                                        The Z-line of cores! Built for Servers and Desktops, but can be configured down for laptops and tablets. These should be VERY BIG cores, like challenging the Intel-14th cores and up in size, burst speed, and maybe even energy draw. I mean Apple's M-line has been out for several years, Qualcomm's coming out with Oryon.

                                        Then ARM can pivot their business to make the X-line of BIG cores just a tad bit smaller and more efficient. Then they should rename the Cortex-A7__ line of Medium cores as the Y-line, and turn them into an even more efficient and smaller package. Whilst they keep the Cortex-A5__ line just as it is, as in-order issue, Small Cores. They can go into wearables, embedded appliances, and alongside microcontrollers.

                                        It would be great having something like this:
                                        - 50W-500W Home Server with a 32-Z core setup.
                                        - 4W-24W Laptop with a 8Z + 8X setup.
                                        - 3W-15W Tablet with a 4Z + 4X setup.
                                        - 2W-9W Phablet with a 3X + 5Y setup.
                                        - 1W-4W Phone with 2X + 6Y setup.
                                        - 0W-2W Wearable with 1Y + 7A setup.
                                        - 0W-1W Watch with 8A setup.
                                        - 0W-0W Transistor with 1A setup.

                                        ...but this seems like wishful thinking :(
