Mediatek Helio A25 vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 MSM8916 vs Mediatek Helio A20 MT6761D

Mediatek Helio A25

The Mediatek Helio A25 is an entry level ARM SoC for smartphones (mainly Android based) that was introduced in early 2020. It is manufactured in a 12 nm FinFET process and is equipped with 8 ARM Cortex-A53 CPU cores divided in two clusters. A performance cluster with 4 cores clocked at up to 1.8 GHz and a efficiency cluster clocked at up to 1.5 GHz.

Furthermore, the SoC integrates a LTE Cat.4 modem, a LPDDR3-933 / LPDDR4-1200 / LPDDR4x-1600 memory controller, a IMG PowerVR GE8320 graphics card and a 1080p30 video de- and encoder (H.265 decoding, H.264 encoding).

Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 MSM8916

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 (MSM8916) 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.

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.
