Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 (8998)

► remove from comparison Qualcomm SD 835

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 Mobile Platform (MSM8998) is a high-end SoC for smartphones (mostly Android based) that was released early 2017. Its one of the first processors that is manufactured in 10 nm (LPE FinFET at Samsung). The SD835 is the successor to the Snapdragon 821.

It integrates 4x Kryo 280 at 2.45 GHz (max) for performance and 4x Kryo 280 at 1.9 GHz (max) for efficiency. Furthermore offers an X16 LTE modem, 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ad WiFi, a dual-channel 32-Bit 1866 MHz LPDDR4x memory controller, an UFS 2.1 controller, Hexagon 682 DSP, Spectra 180 Image Seonsor Prozessor, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, GLONASS, Baeidou, Galileo Satellite Support.

Mediatek Helio G80

► remove from comparison Mediatek Helio G80

The Mediatek Helio G80 is a mainstream ARM SoC for smartphones (mainly Android based) that was introduced in 2020. It is manufactured in a 12 nm FinFET process and integrates 8 CPU cores. Two fast ARM Cortex-A75 cores with up to 2 GHz for performance tasks and six small ARM Cortex-A55 with up to 1.8 GHz for efficiency. All eight cores can be used together thanks to Heterogeneous Multi-Processing support. The integrated GPU is a ARM Mali-G52 MC2 (MP2) with two clusters at up to 950 MHz. The SoC also integrates the HyperEngine that handles a dynamic management of CPU, GPU and memory.

The SoC integrates furthermore a LTE radio with Cat-7 (download) / Cat-13 (upload) support, Wifi 5 (ac), Bluetooth 5.0, LPDDR4x 1800 MHz and eMMC 5.1 storage.
