Snapdragon 630 vs Kirin 710

Comparisons   11-03-2021
   Well, which chip or processor is better? Detailed comparison data of benchmarks Qualcomm Snapdragon 630 vs HiSilicon Kirin 710, speed examination of GPUs Mali-G71 MP4 and Adreno 508.
   This performance comparison involves two processors: Snapdragon 630 is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A72) and Kirin 710 is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A73). Both processors went throughpower consumption test and battery life test. A careful analysis of all the technical characteristics, to make it easier to understand, is made by the table.
   From the video comparison, you can get the results of parallel benchmarking in special test applications like GeekBench 6, 5, PassMark, Octane V2, 3DMark, Vellamo, Mozilla Kraken, WebXPRT 3, AnTuTu, GFXBench, Neocore, Quadrant, PCMark, even the gaming performance of SoCs in Call of Duty: Mobile, Real Racing 3, PUBG, Fortnite, Garena Free Fire - The Cobra, Minecraft Bedrock, Sniper 3D, Mortal Kombat etc.
   After looking at the data these benchmarks and videos, you can already make an informed decision about which CPU is better to buy Snapdragon 630 or Kirin 710 and which chip is better for gaming: Madout2, Need for Speed No Limits, Asphalt 9, CSR Racing 2.
