MediaTek MT6735T vs HiSilicon Kirin 620

Comparisons 11-03-2021

So, which chip or processor is better? Full comparison data of benchmarks MediaTek MT6735T vs HiSilicon Kirin 620, speed testing of GPUs Mali-450 MP4 and Mali-T720 MP2.

This performance comparison includes two processors: MT6735T is quad-core (ARM Cortex-A53) and Kirin 620 is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A53). Both processors went throughpower consumption test and battery life test. A careful analysis of all the technical characteristics, to make it easier to read, is presented in the form of the table.

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

After looking at the data of joint benchmarks and videos, you already be able to know which processors is better to buy MT6735T or Kirin 620 and which chip is better for gaming: Need for Speed No Limits, Asphalt 9, CSR Racing 2, Madout2.
