Dimensity for the win. GSMArena, don't be sad. LOL

Seriously speaking, I hope MediaTek will not follow Snapdragon's pricing structure.

    finally dimensity is where qualcomm has to put more effort. i have faith when they started with helio series, they will pave a better path. now with them lower in price, i can see more options coming from a lot of brands.

    hopefully they can take the next step, making the instruction developer friendly. thats how qualcomm wins a lot of modders in their early days

      This is the equation of your bias :

      "No Mediatek is exactly the same percentage behind as every year.. about 10%"

            If Mediatek price is cheaper, of course D9400 is the winner. Running super ultra speed like D9400 for smartphone is already ultra super fast :D

              just comes down to power usage and temps also pricing then you see OP13 coming in cheaper then Oppo x8

                the performance is soo good now i don't think anyone would be "unhappy" or have FOMO about the other chip. One has better CPU the other has better GPU.

                  Both are good. I'd have either of these in my phone.

                    Pheelzy, 8 hours agoWow Dimensity really tried this time Yep.
                    I am really impressed with their design. The 1+3+4 is how I would've also approached this. I actually expected MediaTek to get the win here for the total / multithread performance by maybe +10%, get roughly equal -5% on single-core, but then lose noticeably in the graphical performance by -25%.

                    So my expectations have really been flipped. That iGPU from Norway ARM Holdings is mighty impressive, beating the latest from Qualcomm, Apple, PowerVR, Intel, AMD, and Nvidia. Meanwhile, it looks like the folks from Nuvia were not bluffing about their processor. They have really high single-core performance, and a very high multithread performance from such few cores. It's a shame we couldn't get this technology back when ARM was floundering with X1/X2 architectures.

                    As always, let us wait for more data and testing. We need to evaluate their efficiency curves. And we need to see how well they are optimised on the driver level for the heavy-duty Apps, x86 translation, and high-level emulation. It doesn't make sense to pay so much for this technology and only use it for easy tasks like social media.

                      I am interested in battery life and thermal efficiency

                          rizki1, 8 hours agountil Unisoc T999 will beat both of them.Nah man, Kirin will beat the sh*t out of them both

                            Wow

                            Dimensity really tried this time

                              until Unisoc T999 will beat both of them.
