Did you never bother to check the links i provided? So its just you remaining, and you provided zero proof for your claims. Letting it go is on you.

Which world? A world with just you and the other guy? 2 randos with zero proof vs a team who does extensive testing on chipsets, sure it wont get anyone far.

No, it must be the entire world who is wrong. That line of thinking won't get you far.

      newer cpus arent automatically more efficient. Cortex a710 (used in 8g1) is less efficient than a78 (used in 888) in other socs too.

      865 is on tsmc, 888 is on samsung, its just a small difference but it exists. The graph is showing both power use and perf. 865 isnt above in perf.

      8100 vs 8300 is again the same a78 vs a715 thing. A78 is actually really efficient. It took a720 to overtake it. And 8100 isnt more powerful, its just slightly more efficient. Thats what is shown there.

      6g1 above 8g1 again isnt in performance.

      A17 pro being behind 8g3 is because its geekbench 5, where multicore is tested differently to give advantage to higher core count cpus. In gb6 a17 pro is ahead, thats also there, click on geekbench 6 icon to see that. And 9300+ is just that strong.

        It shows:
        SD 888 above SD 8 Gen 1 (Doubt it)
        SD 865 above SD 888 and SD 8 Gen 1 (can't be)
        MTK 8100 above MTK 8300 (lol. 8300 is way more efficient and powerful than 8100 anyday)
        SD 6 Gen 1 above SD 8 Gen 1 (common, seriously bro?)
        Apple A17 Pro behind SD 8Gen 3 and MTK 9300+ (Don't know what to say).

        Sorry to say, but the data on this website doesn't look reliable at all.

          1989 nothinghappened, 25 Aug 2024Yeah but the poco and honor are not 7g3, they are 7sg2 and ... moreExactly my point. You can't notice any difference until you are doing GPU intensive tasks. CPU performance is more or less similar for all these chips.
          In the YouTube comparison video you posted even gaming performance is on similar level.

            Heres is the cpu and gpu efficiency of 865 and 6g1. 870 and 7sg2 are just oc versions of those chips.

            And slightest detail? Did you not read the samsung 4nm part and lower cache?

            Now youre gonna provide sustained results between poco pad/redmi pad and pad 6 right? Where the pad 6 falls hard?

                I dont understand why no 8-8.5 Inch tablet with 5G for calls and gaming on the run, do not need another bulky 12inch there are already tons on big tablets on the market, Poco should have release the smaller 5g as there are no competitions and plenty enough wants an ipad mini equivalent with 5g but for someone everyone manufacturer just skips it and fight over the tiny share....absolute bonkers .

SD 7sGen 2 and SD 6Gen 1 is overall slightly worse than SD870. Overall I don't see real world performance of any of these chips as a deciding factor. There are more or less similar.

                    1989 nothinghappened, 24 Aug 2024Its samsung 4nm with lower cache. Worse than 870 in every way.It's clear you own a device with 870 because there's no way someone this dense will defend a bad chipset to these extremes... the benchmarks are out there, its up to you if you want to live in your own reality by ignoring them and pretending they don't exist (benchmarks are not just raw power btw, sustained performance plays a big role and thats where 870 falls down hard). Not to mention the "its better in every way" statement doesn't even go into the slightest detail as to why it is, perhaps because you can't defend the indefensible.

That processor overheats and is 7 nm, while the 7s gen 2 is 4 nm, meaning you will get more battery efficiency. Not only that but Mi Pad 6 users have also complained that HyperOS update made their tablets slower, it's not optimized for it.

                        Mi Pad 6 is good but if you want to talk about budget the crown goes to the Poco Pad/Redmi Pad Pro, it is what it is.

                          For screen size sure but pad 6 has higher resolution, along with 13mp vs 8mp front cam, faster storage, faster usb. But poco pad has sd slot and jack.

                              1989 nothinghappened, 24 Aug 2024For non 5g mi pad 6 is best option. If just want the best ... moreAgree on the OnePlus Pad 2. I just hate the screen aspect ratio. 16:9 and 16:10 are the ones i use for laptops and tabs. Can't change that. But yes, if one is ok with the screen then its the best for the price.

                              As far as Xiaomi Mi pad 6 is concerned, its not that great.
                              1. SD870 is worse in CPU performance than SD 7s Gen 3 abd SD 6 Gen 1. (But better in GPU Performance so better for gaming but worse for normal tasks)
                              2. I'm already using a 10.6 tab, need 12+ to replace my laptop for normal day to day tasks.
                              3. Keyboard+ 256GB Mi Pad 6 costs over 30k. Not worth the price for me. I would rather get the poco or honor with 7sGen 3 or 6Gen 1 and 12+ screen.

Only the GPU Performance of SD870 is slightly better. If gaming is not priority (not even a bit for me) then SD 7s Gen3 should perform better in most normal cases.
                                + I currently using an 10.6 inch tab so wanted a bigger screen size.
                                + Obviously the price difference. Mi Pad 6 256GB with Keyboard will cost over 30k.

                                I'm still waiting for Poco to launch Non 5G version. Or some other tab to launch in 12+ screen size.

                                  Rhoodin, 23 Aug 2024With Bank offer the 8/128 GB is 20,999. Thats 1K less than ... moreFor non 5g mi pad 6 is best option.
                                  If just want the best price to performance oneplus pad 2 is the best deal.

                                    Mi pad 6 seems to be unbeatable for its flagship specs in a budget

                                      pl2rts, 23 Aug 2024Well that Infinix Xpad is also 11 inch screen while Pad SE ... moreI don't even understand why do we need to compare Tab A9/Pad SE 8.7 and Xpad since one of them is a small tablet and the other one is a big tablet - literally different market.
                                      But if we just compare Tab A9/Pad SE 8.7, we know that Tab A9 is clearly win. Such a shame that 4/64 is the only configuration that existed in my country.
                                      And I don't understand with the 90Hz part. If G85 can handle 90Hz, I don't see any reason why G99 cannot. It's not like G99 is the lowest entry level chipset or smth.

                                        pen should've come included with the pad
