In fact, we cannot say which one is better or worse between Qualcomm Snapdragon processor and MediaTek processor.
At present, MediaTek does a better job in terms of energy consumption and saves power; Qualcomm Snapdragon does a good job in terms of performance. Each has its own advantages. It depends on which aspect you pay more attention to in daily use. Don't be too extreme and think that this is good and this is bad.
And the quality of the processor also depends on horizontal comparison. For example, the latest MediaTek processor is definitely better than the previous Qualcomm Snapdragon processor.
Take MediaTek’s latest P60 as an example. This processor is similar to Qualcomm Snapdragon 660.
MediaTek Helio P60 processor has an 8-core architecture. Its single-core running score is 1524 and its multi-core running score is 5871. It is not much different from the single-core running score and multi-core running score of the popular processor Snapdragon 660. It is even closer. In addition, considering that this score is only for engineering machines, there will be room for improvement in models officially launched in the future. From this point of view, this MediaTek P60 processor has the strength to compete directly with the Snapdragon 660. In addition, the P60 will use a 12nm process technology, so it will have better performance in terms of power consumption.
In addition to the improvement of hardware configuration, MediaTek Helio P60 processor also makes a difference in AI. After last year's P23 and P30 supported the popularization of dual cameras and full screens, this time on the P60, the AI ????artificial intelligence function can be opened to mobile phone manufacturers as a standard feature, accelerating the popularization of AI technology.
The MediaTek P60 processor will be MediaTek’s main mainstream product in 2018. I believe that many domestic manufacturers will adopt this chip. In addition to the previously rumored OPPO and vivo, Xiaomi has also recently been rumored to use it. Get the P60 chip. For users who are pursuing cost-effectiveness, there is another good choice. With this combination of MediaTek, the competition in the mainstream mobile phone market will be a good show this year.
