kolabad: Agreed. And I really respect mediatek, especially the helio x10. They are really pushing snapdragon hard right now which is a good thing for us consumers. Snapdragon is still more powerful and efficient on paper, but not by many miles like 1 or 2 yrs ago. This can only lead to one thing in the future..... Price of smartphones will reduce and good for us consumers. Remember when apple use to sell their iPhone for $1,000 plus for an 8gb model and 3.5 inch screen? Android made the competition fairer and I can also see same thing happening with snapdragon the way mediatek are going. |

Marvell23:NO it comes with power pump rather and its not real benchmark its your unrealistic observations cos quick charge is still the fastest... |

greenhulk: But this would only affect android phones and android companies that makes premium phones. |

greenhulk:Thank you bro...please tell them. |

PhonePlanet: It will also affect apple, but not by much. Look at it this way, when mediatek gets to its peak, and xiaomi, meizu and co start making premium phones that can match the samsung, HTC and LG at 40% reduction in price, breaking into the US and European market, it will force the big guns to reduce their price. Now when Samsung start reducing the price of the galaxy s and galaxy note series, it will affect apple somehow and they will also reduce the price of the iphonee even if its by just 20%. Remember iPhone 3g was sold for $1,000 for 8gb model, now iPhone 6s with 16gb sells for like $700. |

greenhulk:Trust me, I won't affect apple...... One reason....cos iphone uses ios No chill $1000 was ridiculous, and not reasonable at all. But as far as people see iphone price as reasonable, if android phones like, let it be free. Iphone would never come down and would still sell |
Re: The Secret Behind "Cheap Mediatek Chips" by Nobody: 11:50pm On Dec 06, 2015 |
PhonePlanet: Do u know iPhone cameras never had flash until iPhone 4? And even iPhone 3g doesn't shoot videos? And I'm sure iphones screen wouldn't have been bigger if not for android pushing out bigger screen phones and iPhone users started getting jealous. I remembered Steve Jobs saying 3.5 inch is the perfect screen. But look at them today making 5.5 inch screen phones... Thanks to android. So bro android will affect ios somehow. If Samsung starts selling their galaxy s phones for $300 off contract, then apple would probably reduce their price to like $450. |

greenhulk: Ok then. We shall see when thatday comes |
Re: The Secret Behind "Cheap Mediatek Chips" by kolabad: 7:16am On Dec 07, 2015 |
greenhulk:well I bliv d htc one m9+ which is Qhd nd mediatek can compete |
Re: The Secret Behind "Cheap Mediatek Chips" by Nobody: 7:39am On Dec 07, 2015 |
kolabad: What happens when u take a flagship phone with qhd display and then add a mediatek processor? The picture below says it all. HTC one m9 is a great fast and smooth phone, but the m9+ with mediatek struggles during multitasking and gaming. Also like I said earlier, its not all about putting bigger batteries on phones, its about the software. HTC one m9 has a BIGGER battery than Samsung Galaxy s6 and s6 edge, but this Samsung has a better battery life. It is not also about megapixels. Htc one m9 has a BIGGER camera megapixel (20 vs 16 for Samsung) but Samsung takes much much better pictures.

Re: The Secret Behind "Cheap Mediatek Chips" by PhonePlanet(m): 4:16pm On Dec 07, 2015 |
kolabad:And I am telling you there is non! ANTUTU (higher is better) In descending order Galaxy S6 active = 71865 (Exynos) Galaxy S6 Edge+ = 69306 (Exynos) Galaxy S6 Edge = 69042 (Exynos) Galaxy Note 5 = 67207 (Exynos) Nexus 6P = 60007 (Snapdragon 810) Galaxy S6 = 58382 (Exynos) Mi Note Pro = 53798 (Snapdragon 810) ZTE Axon Pro = 53535 (Snapdragon 810) Droid Turbo 2 = 52201 (Snapdragon 810) Xperia Z5 Premium = 52189 (Snapdragon 810) Moto X Pure = 51822 (Snapdragon 808) LG G4 = 50330 (Snapdragon 808) Blackberry Priv = 48212 (Snapdragon 808) HTC M9+ = 47862 (Mediatek) LG V10 = 46905 (Snapdragon 808) Note: that these are only QHD phones are many other phones (even more than this list) falls in before the HTC m9+ Also Note: Snapdragon 808 was Qualcomm previous flagship before Snapdragon 810. http://www.phonearena.com/phones/benchmarks |

PhonePlanet:now dah iz a long list. Wondering why dey used it in deir flagship device wen dey knew it wud put dem out of d race |
Re: The Secret Behind "Cheap Mediatek Chips" by Nobody: 7:03pm On Dec 07, 2015 |
kolabad: I guess they just decided to try it out. The phone runs smoothly but just the stuttering while multitasking and it practically struggles playing heavy games. |
Re: The Secret Behind "Cheap Mediatek Chips" by kolabad: 7:51pm On Dec 07, 2015 |
greenhulk:so am hearing nd dey keep using it.. Me now I use htc desire 816 wanted 2 port to desire 828 den I c dah dey released dah 1 wif mediatek too.. Wud prolly settle for desire 826 |
Re: The Secret Behind "Cheap Mediatek Chips" by PhonePlanet(m): 9:23pm On Dec 07, 2015 |
kolabad:Original M9 uses Snapdragon 810 is is somewhere btw those Snapdragon 810 phones. But it does not come with QHD. |
