Samsung Exynos 1480 vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 435
Samsung Exynos 1480
► remove from comparison
The Samsung Exynos 1480 is a system on a chip (SoC) for mid-range smartphones and tablets based on Android. The CPU is made up of two clusters, each consisting of four cores. Four Cortex-A78 power cores (up to 2.75 GHz) and four Cortex-A55 power cores (up to 2.05 GHz) are used. The integrated graphics unit (GPU) is a Samsung Xclipse 530. The chipset supports Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3. Both LPDDR4x and LPDDR5 can be connected as RAM. UFS 3.1 is possible as internal memory.
The performance of the new AI engine with 6K MAC NPU is said to be around four times higher than its predecessor. In addition, displays with up to 144 Hz and Full HD+ can be used and cameras with up to 200 MPix are supported. The improved ISP now also enables videos in Ultra HD with up to 60 frames per second and is also capable of HDR and zero-shutter lag (ZSL).
The integrated modem has again received a significant speed boost for downloads and is considerably faster for both 5G-Sub6 (download: up to 5.1 GBit/s, upload: up to 1.28 GBit/s) and 5G-mmWave (download: up to 4.84 GBit/s, upload: up to 0.92 GBit/s), but remains unchanged for uploads since the Exynos 1280. There are no changes for LTE (Cat. 18, download: up to 1.2 GBit/s, upload up to 0.211 GBit/s).
The Exynos 1480 is manufactured by Samsung using the 4 nm process (Samsung 4LPP).
Qualcomm Snapdragon 435
► remove from comparison
The Qualcomm Snapdragon 435 (SD435) is a lower mainstream SoC for (Android based) smartphones and tablets. Contrary to the Snapdragon 630, it is still manufactured in a 28-nm process and also consists of an octa-core CPU part with ARM Cortex-A53 cores. However, they are only clocked at up to 1.4 GHz. The integrated X9 LTE modem supports Cat. 4 with maximum transfer rates of 300 Mbps (downstream) and 100 Mbps (upstream). The SoC also includes an Adreno 505 GPU with support for Vulkan and OpenGL ES 3.1. WiFi 802.11ac and Bluetooth 4.1 are supported as well. The memory controller supports LPDDR3 clocked at 800 MHz (so probably dual-channel DDRL-1600). The main difference to the Snapdragon 430 is the faster LTE modem.
