Snapdragon 820 chipset: Benchmark comparison!
To be more specific, in this article, we will compare Snapdragon 820 chipset with Exynos 7420, MTK Helio X25 and Hisilicon Kirin 955, which are among the best processors nowadays. Let’s consider their scores on Antutu, GeekBench 3 and GFXBench. First of all, according to Antutu, Snapdragon 820 quad-core processor gets 128.376 points, far higher than 99.648 points Helio X25 chipset and 81.473 points Exynos 7420 chipset gets.
On GeekBench 3, there are two kinds of test: single-core and multi-core test. According to the single-core test, Snapdragon 820 chipset, again, has the highest points. The second one is Helio X25 chipset and Hisilicon Kirin 955. The Exynos chipset from Samsung is only ranked no.4 on the chart! However, for multi-core test, Helio X25 chipset reaches the top thanks to its 10-core processor! Snapdragon 820 only lands at no.3 on the chart!
On GFXBench, which is about graphics, Snapdragon 820 chipset wins again with 85 fps. Meanwhile, Samsung Exynos 7420 (which ranks no.2) gets much lower score: 41 fps and Helio X25 gets only 39.5 fps. So it’s clear that Snapdragon 820 quad-core processor offers the best graphics among the 4 chipsets and even the best one in the smartphone market (if GPU is not considered)
Snapdragon 820 chipset: A desirable feature!
Many users buy their phones only based on the amount of RAM, the battery, the internal storage and the camera resolution. They don’t know that the chipset is the heart of every phone!
