Apple A11 Bionic vs MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ vs MediaTek Dimensity 6080
Apple A11 Bionic
► remove from comparisonThe Apple A11 Bionic is a System on a Chip (SoC) from Apple that is found in the iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone X. It was announced late 2017 and offers 6 cores divided in 2 performance cores and four power efficiency cores. In comparison to the A10X all 6 cores can be used at once, leading to a much higher theoretical performance. In our benchmarks the SoC however is not only faster in multi threaded tests (+77% versus A10 Fusion in Geekbench), but also in single threaded tests (+19%). Apple states 25% more performance compared to the A10 in the iPhone 7.
With 4.3 Billion transistors, the A11 Bionic is a rather big chip especially compared to the Snapdragon 835 (3 Billion) or a Skylake desktop quad-core Soc (1.75 Billion).
MediaTek Dimensity 6100+
► remove from comparison
The Mediatek Dimensity 6100+ (or 6100 Plus, MT6835V/ZA) is a lower mid-range SoC with an integrated 5G modem. It includes two fast ARM Cortex-A76 cores at up to 2.2 GHz and six power efficient Cortex-A55 cores at up to 2 GHz (Octa-Core with Heterogeneous Multi-Processing). The specifications are similar to the old Dimensity 700 SoC and nearly identical to the Dimensity 6020. Compared to the 6020, the 6100+ offers slightly higher 5 G speeds (3.3 vs 2.7 Gbps), Bluetooth 5.2 (vs 5.1) support, and is manufactured in the slightly improved 6nm process (vs 7nm).
Furthermore, the chip integrates a 2 core ARM Mali-G57 MC2 GPU, a Wi-fi 5 modem, a LPDDR4x-2133 memory controller, a AI processing unit (APU 3.0) and video de- and encoding.
MediaTek Dimensity 6080
► remove from comparison
The MediaTek Dimensity 6080 (MT6833V/MT6833GP) is an ARM-based SoC (system-on-a-chip) manufactured by TSMC using the 6 nm process. It was specially designed for use in Android smartphones and is in the lower mid-range in terms of performance. It supports all current mobile communication standards, including 5G Sub6.
The SoC is identical to the MediaTek Dimensity 810 the only difference is that the Dimensity 6080 can cope with a camera resolution of up to 108 megapixels.
The CPU works with a total of eight cores, which are divided into two clusters. One has two ARM Cortex-A76 power cores with up to 2.4 GHz each, while the other has six ARM Cortex-A55 energy-saving cores with up to 2.0 GHz each. LPDDR4x RAM with 2,133 MHz can be used as RAM and UFS 2.2 is supported as internal memory.
In terms of connectivity, dual 5G (Sub6) with a theoretical peak download speed of up to 2.77 GBit/s is available, as well as Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.1.
The integrated graphics unit ARM Mali-G57 MP2 can power displays with a resolution of up to 2,520 x 1,080 pixels (Full HD+) and a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz.
