Samsung Exynos 1380 vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 1
Samsung Exynos 1380
► remove from comparison
The Samsung Exynos 1380 is a system on a chip (SoC) designed for mid-range smartphones and tablets running on the Android operating system. The CPU is made up of two clusters, each consisting of four cores. It features four Cortex-A78 performance cores (up to 2.4 GHz) and four Cortex-A55 power-saving cores (up to 2.0 GHz). The integrated graphics unit is an ARM Mali-G68 MP5 with speeds of up to 950 MHz.
The NPU's performance has been improved by around 14 percent compared to its predecessor, with a capacity of 4.9 TOPS. Displays with up to 144 Hz and Full HD+ resolution can now be used, and the chipset supports cameras with up to 200 MPix. The chipset also includes Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3. Both LPDDR4x and LPDDR5 can be used as RAM, and UFS 3.1 is possible as internal storage.
The integrated modem has significantly increased download speeds, supporting both 5G-Sub6 (download: up to 3.79 Gbps (+32%), upload: up to 1.28 Gbps) and 5G-mmWave (download: up to 3.67 Gbps (+75%), upload: up to 0.92 Gbps). The upload speed for LTE (Cat. 18, download: up to 1.2 Gbps, upload: up to 0.211 Gbps (+5%)) has only been slightly improved.
The Exynos 1380 is manufactured by Samsung using the 5-nm process.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 1
► remove from comparison
The Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 (SM7450-AB Mobile Platform) is a fast mid-range ARM-based SoC largely found on Android tablets and smartphones. It integrates eight cores (octa-core) divided into two clusters. Four fast cores based on the ARM Cortex-A710 architecture with up to 2.4 GHz and four additional A510 based cores with up to 1.8 GHz in a power efficiency cluster.
According to ARM, the performance cores are 10 percent faster and 35 percent more efficient than the old Cortex-A78 cores. The efficiency cores are supposed to be 35 percent more powerful and 20 percent more efficient than the old Cortex-A55 cores. The Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 supports up to 16 GB of LPDDR5-3200 RAM and UFS-3.1 flash memory. The SoC uses the integrated Adreno 644 for graphics card.
The Adreno graphics chip supports HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision as well as HLG and relies on a hardware-accelerated H.265 and VP9 decoder. The 7th generation Qualcomm AI Engine offers features like Camera Deep Learning Face Detect (DLFD) and Video Super Resolution (VSR).
The Qualcomm Spectra Triple ISP (Image Signal Processor) enables three cameras to capture photos and videos simultaneously. The chip supports 200-megapixel cameras as well as 4K HDR video recording.
The Snapdragon X62 5G modem integrated in the SoC allows simultaneous data transfers of 5G-mmWave as well as sub-6 GHz, enabling bandwidths of up to 4.4 GBit/s. Qualcomm's FastConnect 6700 is responsible for local communication, which supports Bluetooth 5.2 and Wi-Fi 6E, among other things. Speeds of up to 2.9 GBit/s are to be achieved via Wi-Fi 6E.
The SoC is manufactured in a modern 4 nm process at Samsung.
