Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 vs MediaTek Helio P22

Comparisons   11-03-2021
   Well, which chip or processor is better? Comprehensive data of benchmarks and speed tests Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 vs MediaTek Helio P22, comparison of GPUs PowerVR GE8320 and Adreno 420.
   This performance comparison includes two processors: Snapdragon 805 is gexa-core (Krait 450) and Helio P22 is octa-core (Cortex-A53). Both processors went through battery life test and power consumption test. A careful review of all the specifications, 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, Geekbench, AnTuTu 8, PCMark, Mozilla Kraken, Octane V2, Neocore, WebXPRT 3, 3DMark, GFXBench, PassMark, Quadrant, and how good the chipsets are in games Garena Free Fire - The Cobra, Sniper 3D, Call of Duty: Mobile, Mortal Kombat, Minecraft Bedrock, Real Racing 3, Fortnite, PUBG etc.
   After looking at the data of joint benchmarks and videos, you can already make an informed decision about which CPU is better to buy Snapdragon 805 or Helio P22 and which chip is better for gaming: CSR Racing 2, Need for Speed No Limits, Madout2, Asphalt 9.
