Qualcomm 205 vs MediaTek MT6592

Comparisons   11-03-2021
   Well, which processor or chip is better? Comprehensive data of benchmarks and speed tests Qualcomm 205 vs MediaTek MT6592, compare of GPUs Mali-450 MP4 and Adreno 304.
   This performance comparison includes two processors: Qualcomm 205 is quad-core (ARM Cortex-A7) and MT6592 is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A7). Both processors went throughpower consumption test and battery life test. A step-by-step analysis of all the specifications of the processors, to make it easier to read, is made by the table.
   From the video comparison, you can get the results of joint benchmarking in special test applications like Vellamo, Quadrant, Neocore, PCMark, AnTuTu 8, 3DMark, Geekbench, GFXBench, Mozilla Kraken, Octane V2, WebXPRT 3, PassMark, and how good the CPUs are in games Garena Free Fire - The Cobra, Mortal Kombat, Fortnite, Real Racing 3, PUBG, Minecraft Bedrock, Call of Duty: Mobile, Sniper 3D etc.
   After looking at the data of parallel benchmarks and videos, you can already make an informed decision about which CPU is better to buy Qualcomm 205 or MT6592 and which chip is better for gaming: Need for Speed No Limits, Asphalt 9, Madout2, CSR Racing 2.
