Snapdragon 636 vs Helio G35

Comparisons 11-03-2021

Well, which chip or processor is better? Detailed comparison data of benchmarks Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 vs MediaTek Helio G35, speed examination of GPUs PowerVR GE8320 and Adreno 509.

This performance comparison involves two processors: Snapdragon 636 is octa-core (Kryo 260) and Helio G35 is octa-core (Cortex-A53). Both processors went throughpower consumption test and battery life test. A careful analysis of all the technical characteristics, so that it can be easier to read, is presented in the form of the table.

From the comparison video, you can get the results of parallel benchmarking in synthetic type tests such as PassMark, PCMark, AnTuTu 8, 3DMark, GeekBench 6, 5, Octane V2, WebXPRT 3, Mozilla Kraken, Quadrant, Vellamo, Neocore, GFXBench, and how good the CPUs are in games Garena Free Fire - The Cobra, Sniper 3D, Real Racing 3, Fortnite, Call of Duty: Mobile, PUBG, Minecraft Bedrock, Mortal Kombat etc.

After looking at the data of all benchmarks and videos, you already be able to figure out which processors is better to buy Snapdragon 636 or Helio G35 and which chip is better for gaming: Madout2, Need for Speed No Limits, CSR Racing 2, Asphalt 9.
