MediaTek Helio P40 vs Samsung Exynos 880 benchmark which processor is better

Helio P40 vs Exynos 880

Comparisons   11-03-2021
   So, which processor or chip is better? Detailed data of benchmarks and speed tests MediaTek Helio P40 vs Samsung Exynos 880, compare of GPUs Mali-G72 MP3 and Mali-G76 MP5.
   This performance comparison involves two processors: Helio P40 is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A73) and Exynos 880 is octa-core (Cortex-A77). Both processors went throughpower consumption test and battery life test. A careful analysis of all the specifications, so that it can be easier to read, is made by the table.
   From the video comparison, you can get the results of parallel benchmarking in software tests like AnTuTu 8, PassMark, GFXBench, Quadrant, Mozilla Kraken, WebXPRT 3, GeekBench 6, 5, Octane V2, 3DMark, PCMark, Vellamo, Neocore, even the gaming performance of SoCs in Real Racing 3, Mortal Kombat, Call of Duty: Mobile, Sniper 3D, PUBG, Minecraft Bedrock, Fortnite, Garena Free Fire - The Cobra etc.
   After reading the results these benchmarks and videos, you already be able to figure out which processors is better to buy Helio P40 or Exynos 880 and which chip is better for gaming: Need for Speed No Limits, Madout2, Asphalt 9, CSR Racing 2.
