Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 vs MediaTek Dimensity 7300
Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2
► remove from comparison
The Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 (SM7435-AB) is an ARMv9-A-based SoC for tablets and smartphones in the upper mid-range segment.
The Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 integrates a total of 8 cores divided into two clusters. The ARM Cortex-A78 cluster for high performance offers four cores with up to 2.4 GHz. The remaining 4 cores are based on the more energy-efficient A55 architecture and can be clocked at up to 1.95 GHz. All cores can run simultaneously or just a single cluster.
The SoC is similar to the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 which offers a slightly lower clocked efficiency cluster and a different named GPU. The similar named Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 is clearly faster with newer CPU cores. Although the naming suggest it, there was no Snapdragon 7s Gen 1.
LPDDR5 RAM is supported, with a frequency of up to 6,400 MHz.
The Snapdragon X62 5G modem is used as the modem. It supports a range of SA and NSA 5G mmWave and sub-6 GHz frequencies as well as Dynamic Spectrum Sharing (DSS). The X62 can achieve a maximum downlink speed of up to 2.9 Gbit/s in 5G networks.
The Adreno 710 forms the graphics subsystem. The GPU is capable of driving FHD+ displays at up to 144 Hz.
The Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 is manufactured using the modern 4nm EUV process.
MediaTek Dimensity 7300
► remove from comparison
The MediaTek Dimensity 7300 is an ARM-based mid-range SoC for (mostly Android based) smartphones. The integrated CPU is divided into two clusters with four larger ARM Cortex-A78 cores with up to 2.5 GHz clock speed and an efficiency cluster with four ARM Cortex-A55 cores with up to 2 GHz.
In addition to the integrated ARM Mali-G615 MC2 iGPU, the 7300 also offers a MediaTek APU 655 for AI tasks. Furthermore, a 5G multi-mode modem is installed (2G - 5G) with up to 3.27 Gbps download speed. In addition to Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.4 is also supported.
The chip is manufactured using the modern 4nm process and is advertised to consume 25% less power compared to the older Dimensity 7050.
