Comparisons 11-03-2021

So, which chip or processor is better? Detailed data of speed tests and benchmarks MediaTek MT6582M vs MediaTek MT6580, comparison of GPUs Mali-400 MP2 and Mali-T720 MP2.

This performance comparison includes two processors: MT6582M is dual-core (ARM Cortex-A7) and MT6580 is quad-core (ARM Cortex-A7). Both processors went throughpower consumption test and battery life test. A step-by-step analysis of all the technical characteristics, to make it easier to understand, is made by the table.

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

After looking at the data of joint benchmarks and videos, you already be able to understand which CPU is better to buy MT6582M or MT6580 and which chip is better for gaming: CSR Racing 2, Need for Speed No Limits, Asphalt 9, Madout2.
