Intel Atom Z3735F vs MediaTek MT8783

Comparisons 11-03-2021

Well, which processor or chip is better? Comprehensive data of speed tests and benchmarks Intel Atom Z3735F vs MediaTek MT8783, compare of GPUs Mali-T720 MP3 and Intel HD Graphics (Bay Trail).

This performance comparison includes two processors: Atom Z3735F is quad-core (Bay Trail) and MT8783 is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A53). Both processors went through battery life test and power consumption test. A careful analysis of all the specifications of the chips, so that it can be easier to understand, is made by the table.

From the comparison video, you can get the results of parallel benchmarking in synthetic type tests like PCMark, GFXBench, 3DMark, Quadrant, PassMark, Mozilla Kraken, Neocore, AnTuTu, GeekBench 6, 5, WebXPRT 3, Vellamo, Octane V2, even the gaming performance of CPUs in Call of Duty: Mobile, Real Racing 3, Sniper 3D, Fortnite, Minecraft Bedrock, Mortal Kombat, Garena Free Fire - The Cobra, PUBG etc.

After reading the results these benchmarks and videos, you already be able to know which chipset is better to buy Atom Z3735F or MT8783 and which chip is better for gaming: CSR Racing 2, Asphalt 9, Madout2, Need for Speed No Limits.
