MediaTek MT6575 vs Qualcomm Snapdragon S1

Comparisons   11-03-2021
   Well, which chip or processor is better? Full data of speed tests and benchmarks MediaTek MT6575 vs Qualcomm Snapdragon S1, compare of GPUs Adreno 200 and PowerVR SGX531.
   This performance comparison includes two processors: MT6575 is single-core (ARM Cortex-A9) and Snapdragon S1 is single-core (ARM Cortex-A9). Both processors went through battery life test and power consumption test. A step-by-step analysis of all the technical characteristics, so that it can be easier to read, is made by the table.
   From the video comparison, you can get the results of parallel benchmarking in synthetic type tests such as WebXPRT 3, Geekbench, Mozilla Kraken, Vellamo, GFXBench, AnTuTu 8, Neocore, PCMark, PassMark, Quadrant, 3DMark, Octane V2, and how good the processors are in games PUBG, Sniper 3D, Real Racing 3, Garena Free Fire - The Cobra, Mortal Kombat, Call of Duty: Mobile, Fortnite, Minecraft Bedrock etc.
   After looking at the data these benchmarks and videos, you already be able to understand which SoCs is better to buy MT6575 or Snapdragon S1 and which chip is better for gaming: CSR Racing 2, Madout2, Need for Speed No Limits, Asphalt 9.
