HiSilicon Kirin 935 vs HiSilicon Kirin 620 vs MediaTek MT8168

HiSilicon Kirin 935

The HiSilicon Kirin 935 is an ARM-based octa-core SoC (system-on-a-chip) for smartphones and tablets. It was launched in the first half of 2015. It integrates two quad-core clusters of Cortex-A53 cores (big.LITTLE). The performance cluster clocks at up to 2.2 GHz, the power saving cluster at up to 1.5 GHz. Furthermore, the SoC integrates a ARM Mali-T628 MP4 graphics card and LTE Cat. 6 modem. The SoC is manufactured in 28nm and thanks to the small Cortex-A53 cores also suited for smaller smartphones.

HiSilicon Kirin 620

The HiSilicon Kirin 620 is an ARM-based octa core SoC for mid-range smartphones. It was announced at the end of 2014 and features eight ARM Cortex-A53 cores at 1.2 GHz (max.). Furthermore, the processor integrates a ARM Mali-450 MP4 graphics card, an LPDDR3 memory controller, an LTE Cat.4 modem, 802.11n WiFi and Bluetooth 4.0. The chip is manufactured in 28nm and relatively power efficient.

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.
