Qualcomm Snapdragon 439 vs MediaTek Helio P22

Comparisons 11-03-2021

So, which processor or chip is better? Detailed compare data of benchmarks Qualcomm Snapdragon 439 vs MediaTek Helio P22, speed testing of GPUs Adreno 505 and PowerVR GE8320.

This performance comparison includes two processors: Snapdragon 439 is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A53) and Helio P22 is octa-core (Cortex-A53). Both processors went through battery life test and power consumption test. A thorough analysis of all the specifications of the SoCs, so that it can be easier to read, is presented in the form of the table.

From the video comparison, you can get the results of joint benchmarking in software tests such as Mozilla Kraken, PCMark, PassMark, Neocore, Geekbench, Octane V2, Quadrant, WebXPRT 3, 3DMark, AnTuTu 8, GFXBench, Vellamo, even the gaming performance of processors in Sniper 3D, Mortal Kombat, Garena Free Fire - The Cobra, Real Racing 3, Minecraft Bedrock, PUBG, Fortnite, Call of Duty: Mobile etc.

After reading the results of joint benchmarks and videos, you can already make an informed decision about which processors is better to buy Snapdragon 439 or Helio P22 and which chip is better for gaming: CSR Racing 2, Madout2, Need for Speed No Limits, Asphalt 9.
