MediaTek Helio P35 vs HiSilicon Kirin 710

Comparisons   11-03-2021
   So, which chip or processor is better? Detailed comparison data of benchmarks MediaTek Helio P35 vs HiSilicon Kirin 710, speed examination of GPUs PowerVR GE8320 and Mali-G71 MP4.
   This performance comparison involves two processors: Helio P35 is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A53) and Kirin 710 is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A73). Both processors went throughpower consumption test and battery life test. A step-by-step analysis of all the technical characteristics of the processors, to make it easier to read, is presented in the form of the table.
   From the video comparison, you can get the results of joint benchmarking in software tests like Geekbench, Mozilla Kraken, Vellamo, Quadrant, Octane V2, PCMark, PassMark, GFXBench, Neocore, WebXPRT 3, AnTuTu 8, 3DMark, even the gaming performance of processors in PUBG, Sniper 3D, Call of Duty: Mobile, Mortal Kombat, Real Racing 3, Garena Free Fire - The Cobra, Minecraft Bedrock, Fortnite etc.
   After looking at the data these benchmarks and videos, you can already make an briefed decision about which chipset is better to buy Helio P35 or Kirin 710 and which chip is better for gaming: Asphalt 9, CSR Racing 2, Madout2, Need for Speed No Limits.
