MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 845

MediaTek Dimensity 6100+

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.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 845

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 Mobile Platform (or SD845) is a high-end SoC for smartphones that was introduced in early 2018 and manufactured in 10 nm LPP FinFET at TSMC. Integrates 4x Kryo 385 cores (Cortex-A75) at up to 2.8 GHz (max) for performance and 4x Kryo 385 at 1.8 GHz (max) for efficiency. Furthermore offers an X20 LTE modem (Cat. 18 1.2 Gbps downlink, Cat 13 150 Mbps uplink), ac-WiFi and a dual-channel 32-Bit 1866 MHz LPDDR4x memory controller.
