MediaTek’s Dimensity 1000+ series chipsets is giving tough competition to Qualcomm Snapdragon processors.
MediaTek’s Dimensity 1000+ claims to redifine flagship smartphone.
Let us jump into the comparison of these two powerful processors.
Graphical performance
Looking at the graphical performance, Qualcomm is the best in smartphone Gaming performance unit (GPU). The Adreno 650 GPU of Snapdragon 865 is better than even its own Snapdragon 855+.
MediaTek’s Dimensity 1000+ has Mali-G77 MP11 GPU. This provides good support to high-end gaming but fails to overtake Adreno 650 GPU of Snapdragon 865.
5G support
The 2 processors support 5G. MediaTek’s Dimensity 1000+ comes with an integrated 5G modem which is better compared to Snapdragon 865’s external modem.
Integrated modems work efficiently.
CPU clock speed
Snapdragon 865 has a slight edge over its counter part in clock speed of CPU.
Snapdragon 865 has tri cluster architecture. 1X CORTEX-A77 comes with KRYO 585 CPU with a clock speed of 2.84 GHZ.
