MediaTek MT6582M vs MediaTek MT6572A

Comparisons 11-03-2021

Well, which chip or processor is better? Full data of speed tests and benchmarks MediaTek MT6582M vs MediaTek MT6572A, comparison of GPUs PowerVR SGX531 and Mali-T720 MP2.

This performance comparison includes two processors: MT6582M is dual-core (ARM Cortex-A7) and MT6572A is dual-core (ARM Cortex-A7). Both processors went through battery life test and power consumption test. A careful analysis of all the specifications of the chipsets, to make it easier to read, is summarized in the table.

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

After reading the results of parallel benchmarks and videos, you can already make an briefed decision about which processors is better to buy MT6582M or MT6572A and which chip is better for gaming: Madout2, CSR Racing 2, Need for Speed No Limits, Asphalt 9.
