MediaTek Kompanio 838 vs MediaTek Kompanio 1300T

MediaTek Kompanio 838

► remove from comparison Mediatek Kompanio 838

The Mediatek Kompanio 838 is a mid-range ARM SoC (system-on-a-chip) for Chromebooks. It has a total of eight CPU cores (octa-core). These are made up of 4 ARM Cortex-A78 cores and 4 Cortex-A55 cores, which work together in a big.LITTLE network.

The A78 cores of the 838 clock at up to 2.6 GHz, the A55 cores up to 2 GHz. The ARM Mali-G57 MP3 is used as the graphics unit. A video decoder with H.264, HEVC, VP-9 and AV1 support (at least partially for 4K) is also integrated.

In addition to the CPU and graphics chip, the chip integrates an LPDDR4x-3733 / DDR4-3200 memory controller. The SoC also has an AI accelerator with a rather low maximum performance of 4 TOPS.

MediaTek Kompanio 1300T

► remove from comparison Mediatek Kompanio 1300T

The Mediatek Kompanio 1300T is a fast mid-range SoC with an integrated 5G modem for Android based Tablets. It includes two CPU clusters. Four ARM Cortex-A78 with up to 2.6 GHz and for power efficiency four ARM Cortex-A55 cores at up to 2 GHz. Compared to the Mediatek Dimensity 1300 and Dimensity 1200, there is no faster clocked prime core (of the four A78) and therefore the single thread performance is a lot lower.

Furthermore, the chip integrates a 9 core ARM Mali-G77 MC9 GPU, a Wi-fi 6 modem (ax), a LPDDR4x memory controller (up to 5266Mbps), a AI processing unit (APU 3.0 with 6 cores) and video de- and encoding (including AV1).

The chip is manufactured in the modern 6nm process and should be very power efficient.
