Snapdragon 636 vs Helio P60

Comparisons 11-03-2021

Well, which chip or processor is better? Full data of benchmarks and speed tests Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 vs MediaTek Helio P60, comparison of GPUs Adreno 509 and Mali-G72 MP3.

This performance comparison involves two processors: Snapdragon 636 is octa-core (Kryo 260) and Helio P60 is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A73). Both processors went throughpower consumption test and battery life test. A careful review of all the technical characteristics of the SoCs, to make it easier to read, is presented in the form of the table.

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

After looking at the data of joint benchmarks and videos, you can already make an informed decision about which SoCs is better to buy Snapdragon 636 or Helio P60 and which chip is better for gaming: Asphalt 9, Need for Speed No Limits, Madout2, CSR Racing 2.
