Well, which processor or chip is better? Detailed data of speed tests and benchmarks Apple A12Z Bionic vs MediaTek Dimensity 800, comparison of GPUs Apple A12Z Bionic and Mali-G57 MP4.
This performance comparison involves two processors: A12Z Bionic is octa-core (Vortex) and Dimensity 800 is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A76). Both processors went through battery life test and power consumption test. A thorough analysis of all the technical characteristics of the chips, to make it easier to understand, is summarized in the table.
From the video comparison, you can get the results of parallel benchmarking in software tests such as Octane V2, 3DMark, WebXPRT 3, PCMark, Mozilla Kraken, PassMark, Geekbench, GFXBench, Neocore, AnTuTu, Vellamo, Quadrant, even the gaming performance of CPUs in PUBG, Call of Duty: Mobile, Real Racing 3, Sniper 3D, Garena Free Fire - The Cobra, Minecraft Bedrock, Mortal Kombat, Fortnite etc.
After looking at the data these benchmarks and videos, you can already make an briefed decision about which SoCs is better to buy A12Z Bionic or Dimensity 800 and which chip is better for gaming: Need for Speed No Limits, Madout2, Asphalt 9, CSR Racing 2.
