Mediatek Helio P20 (LP4) MT6757 vs Mediatek Helio G37

Mediatek Helio P20 (LP4) MT6757

The Mediatek Helio P20 MT6757 is an upper mainstream ARM SoC for smartphones (mainly Android based) that was introduced in 2016. It is manufactured in a 16 nm FinFET process and is equipped with 8 ARM Cortex-A53 CPU cores clocked at 2.3 GHz (max.). The chip also includes an LTE modem (Cat. 6).

The integrated ARM Mali T880 MP2  GPU is clocked at up to 900 MHz and has two cluster (from 16) from the Midgard (4th Gen) architecture.

Mediatek Helio G37

The Mediatek Helio G37 is an entry level ARM SoC for smartphones (mainly Android based) that was introduced in late 2020. It is manufactured in a 12 nm FinFET process and is equipped with 8 ARM Cortex-A53 CPU cores clocked at up to 2.3 GHz. They are divided in two clusters, with the four efficiency cores only clock up to 1.8 GHz. Compared to the similar Helio G35, the G37 offers support for 90 Hz displays and 8 GB RAM.

The performance of the G37 is positioned in the entry level and especially the single core performance is very slow due to the small A53 cores and no big performance cores.

Furthermore, the SoC integrates a LTE Cat.4 modem, a Wi-Fi 5 / Bluetooth 5.0 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).

The G37 is produced in 12nm FinFET.
