Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 vs MediaTek Dimensity 1300
Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s Gen 3
► remove from comparison
The Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 (SM6375) is an ARM-based SoC for smartphones and tablets in the upper mid-range segment. Launched in mid-2024, the chip offers two fast ARM Cortex-A78-based cores with up to 2.3 GHz and 6 ARM Cortex-A55-based power cores with up to 2 GHz.
The design of the chip and the technical data are similar to the older Snapdragon 695. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 is manufactured using the older 6 nm technology and has a higher maximum clock rate as well as some new features compared to the 695. As a result, the performance in our tests with the Motorola Moto G85 is also slightly higher than the older Snapdragon 695.
The integrated graphics card is the Adreno 619. The 5G modem called Snapdragon X51 achieves a maximum of 2.5 GBit / 0.8 GBit (download/upload) and supports mmWave. The FastConnect 6200 subsystem offers Bluetooth 5.2 and Wi-Fi 5 (8x8 sounding, dual band, 2x2). All important satellite positioning systems such as GPS, QZSS, GLONASS, SBAS, Beidou and Galileo are supported.
The image signal processor for the cameras supports 3 cameras. Up to 108 megapixels are possible with the main camera and the recording of images in HEIC format is also possible.
MediaTek Dimensity 1300
► remove from comparison
The Mediatek Dimensity 1300 is a high-end SoC with an integrated 5G modem. It includes three CPU clusters. One fast ARM Cortex-A78 at up to 3 GHz with 2x L2 cache, 3 additional A78 with up to 2.6 GHz and for power efficiency four ARM Cortex-A55 cores at up to 2 GHz. The SoC looks to be identical to the older Dimensity 1200.
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.
