HiSilicon Kirin 658 vs MediaTek MT8168

HiSilicon Kirin 658

► remove from comparison Kirin 658

The HiSilicon Kirin 658 is an ARM-based octa-core SoC for mid-range smartphones and tablets. It was announced early 2017 and features eight ARM Cortex-A53 cores. Four cores can be clocked with up to 1.7 GHz (power saving cores) and four with up to 2.35 GHz (performance cores). The difference to the older Kirin 650 and Kirin 655 SoCs is the higher clock speed of the performance cores (2.35 versus 2.1 and 2.0 GHz).

Furthermore, a ARM Mali-T830 MP2 graphics card (at 900 MHz with 40.8 GFLOPS), a 64-Bit LPDDR3 memory controller and a dual-sim capable LTE Cat. 6 (max. 300 MBit/s and GSM, WCDMA, UMTS, HSPA+) radio are integrated in the SoC. The processor performance can be compared with the older Kirin 930 and therefore sufficient for daily usage as browsing and non demanding apps. High-end SoCs with Cortex-A57 or A72 cores however should be noticeably faster. The SoC is produced in a modern 16nm FinFET process and is therefore very power efficient.

MediaTek MT8168

► remove from comparison Mediatek MT8168

The MediaTek MT8168 is an ARM based entry-level to mid-range SoC for (Android based) tablets. It offers four ARM Cortex-A53 processor cores (quad-core) that are clocked with up to 2 GHz. Furthermore, an ARM Mali-G52 MC1 (or MP1) graphics card, a LPDDR4x memory controller, Bluetooth and dual-band Wifi-5 802.11 b/g/n/ac are integrated in the SoC. The integrated camera ISP supports sensors with up to 13 MPix an Full HD videos at 60 fps.

The performance is situated in the entry level of 2020 and between a Snapdragon 429 and Snapdragon 632.
