MediaTek MT8167D vs Spreadtrum SC7731E

Comparisons   11-03-2021
   Well, which processor or chip is better? Detailed compare data of benchmarks MediaTek MT8167D vs Spreadtrum SC7731E, speed examination of GPUs Mali-T820 and PowerVR GE8300.
   This performance comparison involves two processors: MT8167D is quad-core (ARM Cortex-A35) and Spreadtrum SC7731E is quad-core (ARM Cortex-A7). 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 made by the table.
   From the comparison video, you can get the results of parallel benchmarking in special test applications such as AnTuTu 8, PCMark, Neocore, PassMark, Quadrant, Vellamo, Octane V2, GFXBench, 3DMark, GeekBench 6, 5, Mozilla Kraken, WebXPRT 3, and how good the processors are in games Minecraft Bedrock, Garena Free Fire - The Cobra, Real Racing 3, Sniper 3D, Mortal Kombat, Fortnite, PUBG, Call of Duty: Mobile etc.
   After looking at the data these benchmarks and videos, you can already make an informed decision about which chipset is better to buy MT8167D or Spreadtrum SC7731E and which chip is better for gaming: Need for Speed No Limits, CSR Racing 2, Madout2, Asphalt 9.
