MediaTek Dimensity 1100 vs MediaTek Helio G90

Comparisons 11-03-2021

So, which processor or chip is better? Full data of benchmarks and speed tests MediaTek Dimensity 1100 vs MediaTek Helio G90, comparison of GPUs Mali-G76 3EEMC4 and Mali-G77 MC9.

This performance comparison includes two processors: Dimensity 1100 is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A78) and Helio G90 is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A76). Both processors went throughpower consumption test and battery life test. A step-by-step analysis of all the technical characteristics of the CPUs, to make it easier to understand, is made by the table.

From the comparison video, you can get the results of parallel benchmarking in synthetic type tests such as PCMark, Octane V2, AnTuTu 8, 3DMark, PassMark, WebXPRT 3, GeekBench 6, 5, Neocore, Quadrant, Vellamo, GFXBench, Mozilla Kraken, and how good the CPUs are in games Fortnite, Minecraft Bedrock, Real Racing 3, Call of Duty: Mobile, PUBG, Mortal Kombat, Sniper 3D, Garena Free Fire - The Cobra etc.

After reading the results these benchmarks and videos, you already be able to figure out which chip is better to buy Dimensity 1100 or Helio G90 and which chip is better for gaming: Madout2, Asphalt 9, CSR Racing 2, Need for Speed No Limits.
