Mediatek Helio P25 vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 1

Mediatek Helio P25

► remove from comparison Mediatek Helio P25

The Mediatek Helio P25 is an upper mainstream ARM SoC for smartphones (mainly Android based) that was introduced in 2017. It is manufactured in a 16 nm FinFET+ process and is equipped with 8 ARM Cortex-A53 CPU cores. The cores are divided in two clusters, a performance cluster clocked at up to 2.6 GHz and a power efficiency cluster clocked at up to 1.6 GHz. The chip also includes an LTE modem (Cat. 6).

The integrated ARM Mali T880 MP2  GPU is clocked at up to 1000 MHz and has two cluster (from 16) from the Midgard (4th Gen) architecture.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 1

► remove from comparison Qualcomm SD 6s 4G Gen 1

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 1 is a renamed Snapdragon 662 SoC of the lower mid-range for (Android based) smartphones and tablets. The processor unit contains 8 Kryo-260 CPU cores (4x ARM Cortex-A73 with up to 2.1 GHz and 4x ARM Cortex-A53 with up to 1.8 GHz). The Qualcomm Adreno 610 is used as the graphics unit

The SoC comes with the third generation of Qualcomm's AI Engine and also includes Bluetooth 5.1. It is interesting to note that Qualcomm describes the Wi-Fi capability as "WiFi-6-ready", meaning you can connect to a WiFi 6 network, but not all parts of the standard are supported. The new WPS3 security protocol can be used. Support for the HEIF image file format and the Indian satellite network NavIC are also new.

The performance should be very similar to the old Snapdragon 662 (see for benchmarks).

The Snapdragon X11 is integrated as an LTE modem, which supports LTE Cat.13 in the uplink and downlink, as well as 2x2 MIMO in the downlink. The maximum transmission speed is 390 MBit/s (download) and 150 MBit/s (upload).

In terms of mass storage, a maximum of UFS 2.1 is supported, the memory limits are 32 GB and LP4x.

The SoC is manufactured using the 11 nm process.
