MediaTek Helio G35 vs HiSilicon Kirin 710

Comparisons 11-03-2021

So, which chip or processor is better? Detailed data of benchmarks and speed tests MediaTek Helio G35 vs HiSilicon Kirin 710, comparison of GPUs Mali-G71 MP4 and PowerVR GE8320.

This performance comparison includes two processors: Helio G35 is octa-core (Cortex-A53) and Kirin 710 is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A73). Both processors went through battery life test and power consumption test. A step-by-step analysis of all the technical characteristics 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 joint benchmarking in synthetic type tests like Vellamo, WebXPRT 3, Neocore, Mozilla Kraken, PassMark, AnTuTu 8, Octane V2, GFXBench, Quadrant, Geekbench, 3DMark, PCMark, even the gaming performance of SoCs in Minecraft Bedrock, Mortal Kombat, PUBG, Call of Duty: Mobile, Real Racing 3, Fortnite, Garena Free Fire - The Cobra, Sniper 3D etc.

After looking at the data of joint benchmarks and videos, you already be able to understand which CPU is better to buy Helio G35 or Kirin 710 and which chip is better for gaming: Need for Speed No Limits, Madout2, Asphalt 9, CSR Racing 2.
