Anonymous, 15 hours agoIt's actually opposite www.socpk.com/cpucurveMmm no, look at the max performance numbers, Dimensity 9300+ 7150 points in Geekbench 5 and about 17.4w power consumption, 410 points per W.

8 Gen 3 6700 points and about 15.3w power consumption, 437 points per W.

As I said in light and medium loads 9300+ is about same or more efficient, but I should tell you Geekbench 6 is a more realistic real life scenario than Geekbench 5, GB5 simulates a perfect scaling software, and we know real life apps dont scale that good, games are very dependent on render thread that cant be multi threaded.

    Anonymous, 05 Oct 2024Where do I say only Qualcomm should be used? Comment ... moreI'm responding to you saying mediatek is glorified

    So I'm suggesting we just get rid of mediatek completely

    Then there will be nothing to glorify

    That way there will be no flagship mediatek fanboys

    I am trying to help you with the mediatek fanboy issue

    I have you articles and YouTube videos already proving qualcomm being penalized for monopolistic behaviours

    Not sure how it was a lie

    You also said mediatek is still considered inferior so I'm just suggesting they just give up then because it's futile

    Gives us the $600 8 gen chipsets

        At light and medium load the Dimensity 9300+ is about the same as efficient or more than the 8 Gen 3, the problem is at high usage load the 8 Gen 3 its more efficient. This SoC will probably have a 20W peak power consumption, no one wants that. Also when the device ages, Android and apps will need more performance and it will age worse because of that worse efficiency at higher loads.

              Despite a 20% higher clock, Snapdragon Elite (8 Gen 4) seems to be around 10% better on single core

              I think Mediatek keep some marging to release a 9400+
              Or maybe to sell some to Samsung for the S25 with higher clock

                Actually just by performance, the processor itself is not enough to make a full comparison, the UI does also contribute to the AnTuTu, some UI takes more ram and some doesn't. It's as simple as that.

It still holds the top scores with snapdragon 8 Gen 3 with Xiaomi 14 Pro with 1TB Titanium version coming close to second position.

Because snapdragon 8 Gen 5 won't be much of leap compared to 8 Gen 4. Right now Dimensity isn't able to clock the speeds at 4.2Ghz. Let's see. I am hoping to see improvement next iteration.



                    Dimensity 8400 powered devices are insanely powerful at the moment.

                      If you prefer to have a flagship phone, you should buy the phone with the best performance AP, which is Snapdragon 8Gen4. For a budget phone, you can try MTK9400.

                            nice but Mediatek ISP sucks and makes watercolored, overprocessed photos.

                            photos taken with Snapdragon retain details and have a soft look.

                            it's a matter of preference I guess, but I prefer Snapdragon here.

                              Mediatek just doesn't have enough supply. And most of it already bought for domestic market.
                              And waiting for another batch of chipset shipment would disrupt release cycle.

                                No, they're comparable options but phones with the MediaTek chip will be more affordable. You should choose the phone rather the chip it comes with.

                                  I'm starting to consider getting a Phone with MediaTek as processor,
                                  But my gut tells me that I should stick with Snapdragon since they're superior in terms of gaming.

Anyway, so lame to currently h... moreI know you've had no choice but to double down on your "Mediatek bad" theory because you were one of those who thought D9300 would have a throttling issue based on a blatantly false internet rumour before its launch, but let me explain it to you - The reason why manufacturers use the SD chips for their highest end offerings is mostly about brand recognition and the band support.

                                      D9300 absolutely crushed SD 8g3 in terms of CPU raw performance and efficiency. Mediatek placed a huge bet and managed to win when Qualcomm was still trying to stick to the older core layouts. The GPU on the Dimensity was no slouch either, trading blows with 8g3, and while there were a few areas Qualcomm had subtle advantages such as in modem and ISP, MediaTek's offering was more competitive than it ever had been overall.

                                      This year, Qualcomm might regain the advantage with the new Oryon core design, but that doesn't make D9400 any less attractive. Their choice to abandon the inefficient "efficiency" cores was absolutely correct, and that's the direction Qualcomm is also choosing to follow this year, after all. Not to mention Mediatek's high-end chip will most likely be significantly cheaper than Qualcomm's comparable product..
