Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 720G

Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G

► remove from comparison Qualcomm SD 730G

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G (SD730G Mobile Platform) is a fast mid-range ARM-based SoC largely found on Android tablets and smartphones. It integrates eight cores (octa-core) divided into two clusters. A fast performance cluster contains two ARM Cortex-A76 cores clocked at up to 2.2 GHz and a power efficiency cluster with six small ARM Cortex-A55 cores at up to 1.8 GHz. Depending on the workload only single clusters or all cores can run at different clock speeds.

Compared to the normal Snapdragon 730, the 730G is optimized for gaming. This means the graphics card is higher clocked and the chip also offers optimized WiFi. The GPU also supports higher resolutions. Furthermore, the SoC is able to record videos in 720p with up to 960 fps.

The chip includes a range of other features like a fast X15 LTE radio (800 Mbits Cat 15 download, 150 Mbps Cat 13 upload), one of the first Wi-Fi 6 wireless radios (802.11ax), satellite positioning (GPS, QZSS, GLONASS, SBAS, Beidou, Galileo), USB-C 3.1, Spectra 350 ISP, Hexagon 688 DSP, H.265 4K30 video en- and decode, an LPDDR4X-3733 dual-channel memory controller and a Adreno 618 graphics card.

The Snapdragon 730G is manufactured in the modern 8 nm process at Samsung.

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 720G (SD730G Mobile Platform) is a fast mid-range ARM-based SoC largely found on Android tablets and smartphones. It integrates eight cores (octa-core) divided into two clusters. A fast performance cluster contains two ARM Cortex-A76 cores clocked at up to 2.3 GHz (Kryo 465 Gold) and a power efficiency cluster with six small ARM Cortex-A55 cores at up to 1.8 GHz (Kryo 465 Silver). Depending on the workload only single clusters or all cores can run at different clock speeds.

The differences to the Snapdragon 730(G) Kryo 470 are not known, although the performance is comparable.

The chip includes a range of other features like a fast X15 LTE radio (800 Mbits Cat 15 download), Wi-Fi 6 wireless radios (802.11ax), satellite positioning, USB-C 3.1, Spectra 350L ISP, Hexagon 692 DSP, H.265 video en- and decode, an LPDDR4X-3733 dual-channel memory controller and a Adreno 618 graphics card.

The Snapdragon 720G is manufactured in the modern 8 nm process at Samsung (8LLP).
