Mediatek Helio G81 Ultra vs Mediatek Dimensity 6300 vs Mediatek Helio G85

Mediatek Helio G81 Ultra

► remove from comparison Mediatek Helio G81 Ultra

The Mediatek Helio G81 Ultra is a mainstream ARM SoC for smartphones (mainly Android based) that was introduced in 2020. It is manufactured in a 12 nm FinFET process and integrates 8 CPU cores. Two fast ARM Cortex-A75 cores with up to 2 GHz for performance tasks and six small ARM Cortex-A55 with up to 2 GHz for efficiency. All eight cores can be used together thanks to Heterogeneous Multi-Processing support. The integrated GPU is a ARM Mali-G52 MC2 (MP2) with two clusters at up to 950 MHz. The SoC also integrates the HyperEngine that handles a dynamic management of CPU, GPU and memory.

Compared to the old Helio G80, the G81 offers support for 120Hz displays.

The SoC integrates furthermore a LTE radio with Cat-7 (download) / Cat-13 (upload) support, Wifi 5 (ac), Bluetooth 5.0, LPDDR4x 1800 MHz and eMMC 5.1 storage.

Mediatek Dimensity 6300

► remove from comparison Mediatek Dimensity 6300

The MediaTek Dimensity 6300 (MT6835T) is an ARM-based SoC (system-on-a-chip), which is manufactured by TSMC using the 6 nm process. It was specially designed for use in Android smartphones and is positioned in the lower mid-range in terms of performance. It supports all current mobile communication standards, including 5G Sub6. The Dimensity 6300 is very similar to the old MediaTek Dimensity 6080.

The CPU works with a total of eight cores, which are divided into two clusters. One has two ARM Cortex-A76 power cores with up to 2.4 GHz each, while the other has six ARM Cortex-A55 energy-saving cores with up to 2.0 GHz each. LPDDR4x RAM with 2,133 MHz can be used as RAM and UFS 2.2 is supported as internal memory.

In terms of connectivity, dual 5G (Sub6) with a theoretical peak download speed of up to 3.3 GBit/s is available, as well as Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.2.

The integrated ARM Mali-G57 MP2 graphics unit can power displays with a resolution of up to 2,520 x 1,080 pixels (Full HD+) and a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz.

Mediatek Helio G85

► remove from comparison Mediatek Helio G85

The Mediatek Helio G85 is a mainstream ARM SoC for smartphones (mainly Android based) that was introduced in 2020. It is manufactured in a 12 nm FinFET process and integrates 8 CPU cores. Two fast ARM Cortex-A75 cores with up to 2 GHz for performance tasks and six small ARM Cortex-A55 with up to 1.8 GHz for efficiency. All eight cores can be used together thanks to Heterogeneous Multi-Processing support. The integrated GPU is a ARM Mali-G52 MC2 (MP2) with two clusters at up to 1000 MHz (up from 950 MHz from the otherwise similar Helio G80). The SoC also integrates the HyperEngine that handles a dynamic management of CPU, GPU and memory.

The SoC integrates furthermore a LTE radio with Cat-7 (download) / Cat-13 (upload) support, Wifi 5 (ac), Bluetooth 5.0, LPDDR4x 1800 MHz and eMMC 5.1 storage.
