Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 MSM8916 vs JLQ JR510 vs MediaTek MT8163 V/B 1.3 GHz

Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 MSM8916

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 (MSM8916) is a ARM based mid-range SoC for tablets and smartphones (mostly Android based). It was announced in Dec. 2013 and was the first 64-Bit SoC by Qualcomm. It integrates four ARM Cortex-A53 (quad-core) processor cores, a Adreno 306 graphics card, a 64 Bit LPDDR2/3 memory controller and WLAN, Bluetooth, and UMTS/LTE radio.

JLQ JR510

The JLQ JR510 is a lower mainstream SoC for (Android-based) smartphones and tablets by JLQ, a joint venture with Qualcomm and several Chinese companies.

The JLQ JR510 integrates eight ARM Cortex-A55 cores (similar to the Snapdragon 439) in two Clusters. 4 higher-clocked cores with up to 2 GHz and four power saving cores with up to 1.5 GHz.

The integrated graphics card is not an Adreno, but a ARM Mali G52MP1 (single cluster). Displays can be with resolutions up to 1080p/60Hz, for 720p 90 Hz is possible.

The JR510 also includes an AI accelerator with a theoretical performance of up to 1.23 TOPS. For connectivity, the SoC supports 4G (Cat4 / 7), Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac), Bluetooth 5.0, FM and GNSS.

MediaTek MT8163 V/B 1.3 GHz

The MediaTek MT8163 V/B is an ARM based entry-level to mid-range SoC for (Android based) tablets. It offers four ARM Cortex-A53 processor cores (quad-core) that are clocked with up to 1.3 GHz. Furthermore, an ARM Mali-T720 MP2 graphics card clocked at 520 MHz, a DDR3x32 1600Mbps memory controller, Bluetooth 4.0, 802.11 b/g/n, GPS and FM are integrated in the SoC.

The similar named MediaTek MT8163 V/A is the faster version, with a CPU clock o up to 1.5 GHz and GPU of up to 600 MHz.

The performance is situated in the entry level of 2015 and often similar to the Kirin 910T (see benchmark below).
