Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G
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.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G
► remove from comparison
The Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G (SD695) is a fast mid-range ARM-based SoC largely found on Android tablets and smartphones. It features 8 Kryo 660 called cores (64-Bit capable) that are divided in two clusters. A fast cluster of two cores with up to 2.2 GHz based on the ARM Cortex-A78 design. And a power saving efficiency cluster with up to 1.7 GHz based on much smaller ARM Cortex-A55 cores. Both clusters can also used together. The successor of the SD695 is the Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 with slightly higher clocked cores.
In addition to the 8 CPU cores, the SoC integrates a lower mid range Adreno 619 GPU, a X51 5G radio (up to 2.5 Gbits download, no mmWave), a 802.11ac (Wi-Fi 5, 8x8 sounding, Dual Band, 2x2), a Bluetooth 5.2 radio, satellite positioning (GPS, QZSS, GLONASS, SBAS, Beidou and Galileo) and a video engine (support for H.265, H.264, VP8 and VP9).
Compared to the previous SD690, the SD695 is now manufactured in 6nm (instead of 8nm) and offers a higher clocked performance cluster. However, the SD695 only supports Wi-Fi 5 instead of Wi-Fi 6 of the SD690.
