of the world preferred to go for Mediatek chipset and totally dislike
Snapdragon chipset… and by my findings, it’s basically because of the imei
tweaking and nothing more to this.
to release devices based on Mediatek instead of Snapdragon chipset, a perfect
examples of these are all the new devices launched recently like Tecno, Infinix, Gionee,and the injurious InnJoo.
is better among the two chipsets, first of all we need to know how these
chipsets are different from each other.
Now, let me explain them in detail in terms of
gaming, efficiency and performance.
It is a Taiwanese company. It uses more cores
in its processors (like octa core,hexa core,deca core).
Battery Life:
The Mediatek chipsets are known to be more power
draining and results in less battery life. Now they are optimizing their
processors to be more power efficient but still lags behind in terms of battery
life.
Performance:
Performance wise MediaTek processors are very good. Due
to the availability of extra cores, mediatek processors can handle intensive
and heavy tasks and they are very good at multi-tasking. But we can see all
this practically if we have sufficient Ram. Yes more cores demand more Ram to
give best performance.
Heating Problem
Now coming to the heating problem. All the processors
deliver heat while performing tasks. Mediatek processors deliver more heat(more
cores=more heat) than the others. The more the heat, the more the battery
drainage.
Graphics:
Coming to graphics, Mediatek employs Mali graphics
which is a third party graphics vendor(So graphics architecture is different
from cpu and its performance may not match with cpu). It is really important to
match the performances of cpu and gpu(graphics) so that the whole chipset
performs efficiently and effectively.
Snapdragon chipsets are manufactured by Qualcomm
(American) company.
Snapdragon chipsets are not only just CPU’s they
incorporate other many processors in their chipsets. This is the main
difference between Snapdragon and other chipsets.
Snapdragon chipsets are named as SoC’s(System on
chip) which means their chipsets(SoC’s) have a CPU,GPU(Adreno Graphics),Image
processor, Media processor, DSP(Digital Signal Processor),Cellular Modem unit, Wifi
Modue, Radio Module, GPS Module,…etc. All these modules and Processors are
inside of a snapdragon chip. Yes they incorporated all these things inside
their chips.Hence their chips are costly.
Battery Life:
Snapdragon chipsets are best in terms of power
efficiency compared to all other chipsets.
Performance wise they perform really well. In
multi-tasking, gaming, handling heavy and intensive tasks they are very
good.
Heating Problem:
Snapdragon Processors generally deliver less heat
compared to Mediatek and Intel Atom(Except the Snapdragon 810 Chipset-that
faced many heating issues.)
Graphics:
Coming to graphics, they manufacture their own
graphics called Adreno Graphics and incorporate into their chips. So here the
performance of cpu and gpu are matched.
devices in the past and also experimented with two different Xiaomi mobile
phone concurrently, Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 (Mediatek) and Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro
(Snapdragon)
unnecessarily hot, while the Note 3 pro is normal either during usage or no
usage. Despite the facts that Note 4 runs on the latest mediatek Helio X20 architecture,
the heating problem is completely out of this world.
Snapdragon is the best and not mediatek.
Mediatek is more tweakable than snap..
Very educative i must say but how about the pocket budget of phones with such processors
It seems like developers can't develop easy IMEI tweaker for Snapdragon chipset imie.
Imei tweaking is illegal in certain countries.
Not here
MediaTek is easily tweaked, but Snapdragon isn't. But for me i prefer Snapdragon to Mediatek, though Mediatek is also cool, but issues with overheating, battery consumption kills my morale.
Commenting from Preshtech.Com
I love my mtk. I brick n unbrick my device at will. In fact, I do whatever with my mtk.
In terms of good battery in terms of gaming with good graphics mediatek is the best.
New Samsung now use mtk chip set
Mediatek just happens to be cheaper.. bit snapdragon is far more better ..

You call itel mtk? It's spreadtrum!
If you want a chip that delivers on Game and Graphics, Snapdragon is the pathway to follow.
If yours is to tweak(data bypassing) and conform the chip to suite your needs and prescription(ability to modify) with greater multi-tasking, Mediatek is where you should pitch your tent.
Anyway, i prefer Snapdragon when i want to do gaming.

Snapdragon's chipset can be tweaked to optimize performance…and its clearly the best, it's built for high end phones not injoo rubbish and co
Snapdragon devices are always a step above the rest when it comes to performance….well except for Samsung's very own exynos chipset. Mtk remains a kid beside these bad boys
I am team Snapdragon, I can't stand the heat of mediatek, its completely out of this world
Lies. I'd used hot note and presently using canon C8, no heat has been noticed.
Our pooooor internet connection is d main culprit dt is making phones to catch fire or heat????. Put Mtk phones for 2G or EDGE u won't feel any heat
Yomi answer this question because this post is posted by U
Mediatek modem and Snapdragon modem which one is the best????
Answer it
Obviously, you didn't read the post. If you had read the post, you will have seen my own answer.
Also yomi those it mean that all Snapdragon 810 have heating issues??
No vex
I mean which one browses faster unlike 3G speed and also 4G speed?
presently using the new xiaomi 4prime and its on snapdragon.. super awesome phone, i love the phone more than my girlfriend, i must confess.
Be quiet you don't have a gf
Snapdragon looks perfect..I think my next device will be snapdragon
Also prof, I noticed most cheap device are MTK.
