Comparison of MediaTek Dimensity 1100 Vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 – A little history of cell phones, the origin of the cell phone was discovered in 1973 by Martin Cooper. At that time, he and his team wanted to carry out the idea of making a small-sized communication device that was easy to carry so that a device called a cellphone was created. In its journey, mobile phones have slowly evolved to the present day. The development of smart phones is currently very fast, there are many brands competing to make smart phones with the latest technology and the features it brings.
Currently smart phones are not only for communication needs, therefore smart phones are equipped with high specifications to support it. This time we will discuss the brain of the cellphone itself which is embedded in it.
We have often heard the names Mediatek and Qualcomm Snapdragon. These two big companies have made a lot of chipsets that are embedded in cellphones. They are competing to make chipsets with many interesting features to pamper their users.
We will compare the Mediatek Dimensity 1100 chipset and Qualcomm Snapdragon 865. Mediatek Dimensity 1100 has Octa-Core specifications which are divided into 2 parts, namely Quad-Core Arm Cortex – A78 2.6 GHz and Quad-Core Arm Cortex – A55 2.0 GHz with 6nm fabrication that already supports 5G networks. The Mediatek Dimensity 1100 is paired with the Arm Mali GPU – G77 MC9.
Not wanting to be left behind with Mediatek, Qualcomm Snapdragon also released their chipset which is no less sophisticated, namely Qualcomm Snapdragon 865. With Octa-core specifications which are divided into two parts, Mono-Core Kryo 585 2.84 GHz and Tri-Core Kryo 585 2.42 GHz with 7nm fabrication, then equipped with an Adreno 650 GPU and also supports 5G networks.
Comparison of MediaTek Dimensity 1100 Vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 865
Game Features
For gaming problems, Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 is equipped with Snapdragon Elite Gaming and the features in it are Desktop Forward Rendering for a good gaming experience.
Not only that, the Mediatek Dimensity 1100 also provides its chipset with Mediatek HyperEngine 3.0, with several features included, namely: Networking Engine 3.0, Resource Management Engine, and Rapid Response Engine 3.0
Photography and Videography
In terms of photography, Mediatek Dimensity is equipped with an ISP (Image Signal Processor) 5-core which enables multi-camera support up to 108MP. Do not miss the features offered, namely being able to record videos with Real-time AI Multi-person Bokehand 20% faster AI when shooting at night.
On the other hand Snapdragon 865 provides Qualcomm Spectra 480 ISP (Image Signal Processor) to support photo and video processing up to 2 Gigapixel per second, also brings video capture Dolby – vision, 8K, and 4K HDR videos. then supports shooting up to 200MP. Not to forget this chipset is equipped with MFNR (Multi-Frame Noise Reduction) and also ZSL (Zero Shutter Lag).
Network
A number of regions in Indonesia have been realized to support 5G network technology, therefore both of these chipsets already support 5G networks. However, even though they both support 5G networks. of these two chipsets have differences. Mediatek itself can download at speeds up to 4.7 Gbps and upload up to 2.5 Gbps. While Snapdragon 865, equipped with Modem – Qualcomm Snapdragon X55 5G RF System which can download speeds up to 7.5 Gbps and upload speeds up to 3 Gbps.
Screen Resolution
One of the supporters to support the quality of smart phones is the screen resolution. This Mediatek chipset supports a fairly high screen resolution level with HD + quality up to 2520 x 1080 and has refresh rate 144 Hz. As for Snapdragon, it has a resolution of 4K with refresh rate 60 Hz and QHD+ with refresh rate 144 Hz.
Both of these chipsets already support WiFi, USB type-C, FM Radio, UFS 3.1 internal storage. However, the Snapdragon 865 version supports RAM using LPDDR4X and LPDDR5 technology, while the Mediatek Dimensity 1100 chipset only supports LPDDR4X RAM technology.
Comparison of MediaTek Dimensity 1100 Vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 865, AnTuTu 8 Benchmark
AnTuTu 8 benchmarks is a platform to measure and compare the performance of SoC, CPU, GPU, Memory and UX (User Experience). In this case, the comparison of scores produced by AnTuTu for Mediatek Dimensity 1100 is 634,880 (88%) and Qualcomm Snapdrogon 865 which is 598,113 (83%). From this score, it is not 100% accurate depending on the operating system used.
Of the two chipsets, it is certain that they have their advantages and disadvantages and try to provide the best and satisfaction to their users. For more details about chipset specifications, please look carefully at the table below.
