Mediatek Helio A20 MT6761D vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 APQ8016

Mediatek Helio A20 MT6761D

The Mediatek Helio A20 MT6761D is an entry-level ARM SoC for smartphones and tablets (mainly Android-based) that was introduced in 2020. It integrates four ARM Cortex-A53 cores clocked at up to 1.8 GHz. It integrates a PowerVR GE6300 GPU clocked at up to 550 MHz. The integrated memory controller supports LPDDR4x (max. 4 GB at 1200 MHz). Furthermore, a LTE radio with Cat-4 DL (150 Mbps download) and Cat-6 UL (50 Mbps upload) and a 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi 5 modem is integrated.

Compared to the similar named A22 MT6761, the MT6761D offers lower clocked CPU and GPU cores and a slower LTE modem, but is produced in the modern 12 versus 16nm process.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 APQ8016

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 (APQ8016) 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. Compared to the MSM8916, the APQ8016 lacks the integrated cellular radio (3G, 4G, LTE) and is usually clocked lower (1.2 vs 1.4 GHz).
