HiSilicon Kirin 710A vs MediaTek Helio P70

Comparisons 11-03-2021

So, which processor or chip is better? Detailed data of speed tests and benchmarks HiSilicon Kirin 710A vs MediaTek Helio P70, comparison of GPUs Mali-G71 MP4 and Mali-G71 MP2.

This performance comparison involves two processors: Kirin 710A is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A73) and Helio P70 is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A73). Both processors went throughpower consumption test and battery life test. A step-by-step analysis of all the specifications, to make it easier to understand, is presented in the form of the table.

From the video comparison, you can get the results of parallel benchmarking in software tests like PassMark, Quadrant, AnTuTu, GFXBench, Neocore, 3DMark, Vellamo, Geekbench, Octane V2, PCMark, Mozilla Kraken, WebXPRT 3, and how good the processors are in games Minecraft Bedrock, Real Racing 3, Garena Free Fire - The Cobra, Call of Duty: Mobile, Fortnite, Mortal Kombat, PUBG, Sniper 3D etc.

After reading the results of parallel benchmarks and videos, you already be able to know which SoCs is better to buy Kirin 710A or Helio P70 and which chip is better for gaming: Need for Speed No Limits, CSR Racing 2, Madout2, Asphalt 9.
