I wasn't disputing the fact. I was only stating the obvious..

donbenie:
Doesn't still mean that Exynos are as good as Snapdragons..

Except the Flagship Exynos SoC lines,

The midrange Exynos series are in no way comparable to Snapdragons..

xjiggy:
How Xiaomi found it's way into your list still baffles me. By the way, if you want to get mental problem, use Blackview. That phone frustrated my cousin to the extent he started talking to himself while walking on the streets. Since he started using Huawei, he's back to his normal self

him suppose know say the phone go the behave like the name now ie the view go black.

Thanks op for initiating this thread.
I am looking to buy a new phone but, am confused which one to buy with two phones topping my list, they include; umidigi s3pro and xiaomi note 7pro which run on media tek and snapdragon chipsets respectively.
From my scale of preference below, I list the main features that I so much desire my new phone will be equipped with;
1. Camera. I need a very good camera for taking pictures and videos of my products to display them online.
2. Battery. l really don't like charging or am always lazy when it comes to charging. I manage to charge just once a day.
3. RAM and ROM. I need a 6gb or more RAM that processes at a lightning speed cos, hate it when phone hangs and a huge ROM to save files, videos, and movies.
4. Finger print sensor. Like my phone to be more secure.
Having listed this, could you please help by telling me which one has the best performance and would wonderfully suit my desire.
Many thanks again as i look forward for your reply.

This is how i make my comparison.

1. Camera- They have the same rear camera sensor. The difference of MP in front camera is insignificant. I almost never snap a picture at anything more than 5mp. Its the sensor size and aperture i care more of.

2. Battery - At 5150mah and 4000mah respectively, I prefer the latter because of the Snapdragon soc which is more power efficient and has quick charge technology reducing charging time drastically. The power efficiency may match the battery capacity of the former.

3. Both have the same RAM and ROM

4. Fingerprint sensors are available on both

My preference is the Xiaomi for this reasons

1.Antutu benchmark is higher

2.187g of Xiaomi is much much better to the 217 on the Umidigi

3. Even though a little larger in length and width its much slimmer at 8.1 vs 8.5mm

That doesn't mean its not money. Naira is a currency made for a people. While dollar is a currency made for other people. They both have value and they target different people, which is very important in business or production. You MUST have your target audience, which is based on factors like, income level, occupation, location, purchasing power, etc.

One is of higher quality than the other, no matter how will try to justify the other it will always be outperform...

Go for the Xiaomi product and have peace of mind. However, you can state your budget and let me help you find better phones in that price range.

Hello. Have you decided on the phone to buy? If you haven't, research on the pocophone f1 or wait for the f2. Watch YouTube videos on it too. It is the best phone I have ever used. No regrets.

Poco f1? I am considering it since note 7pro's price went from $200 to $300+ now on about same price with the flagship device (poco f1).
I really need a good camera display but poco offers less with dual rear 12 + 5mp while 20mp in front.
However, a friend pushed me into mi 9 and after checking the phone out, am now in serious dilemma.
Mi9 is too fucking smart with; NFC, on display finger print, glass case, fast wireless charge, 48+mp and 20mp rear and selfie cameras, sd855 among others
My problems here goes to the battery but, with quick n wireless charge abilities I don't have mush worries accept the price which is above what am willing to spend.
I might go for poco f1, for poco f2, I don't really need to add to my dilemma unless it has good features and affordable too

Ok. I understand your dilemma. The Poco's camera is ok but far better when gcam is installed on it. I will advice you go for poco because it is far cheaper than the MI9.

OK. But I just wish the mi9's price will reduce

MediaTek devices are more affordable and possesses a good camera. Most Tecno phones use MediaTek Processor.

You guys are making a mistake.
Mediatek also makes high-end processors comparable to and sometimes better than snapdragon processors. The issue is that they just don't feature in phones as often as their lower end processors do.
FYI the infinix hot 6, hot 6 pro, hot 7 and hot 7 pro all use the snapdragon 425 Soc.
Mediatek's high end processors are just not very common

Apples Soc are always faster and better than all andriod SoCs put together..the only ones coming close are the snapdragon and exynos..don't dare bring huawei kirin in here...the Snapdragon 855 on galaxy s10 vs p30 shows that it totally blows it away...if its not exynos or snapdragon am not using the device...i dont even consider MTKs..

Presently, Mediatek do not produce flagship grade SoCs, they are concentrating on the midrange and budget end of the market. This is a direct consequence of the plethora of problems Mediatek encountered with their Helio X series, hence their decision to suspend production of the Helio X series of SoCs.
Mediatek have concentrated their efforts on their midrange Helio P series of SoCs; notable of which are the Helio P60, Helio P70, and the Helio P90. These SoCs are quite good and are comparable to Snapdragon's 6xx/7xx SoCs.
Mediatek also have some good budget SoCs; Helio P22, and Helio A22 (from the newly introduced budget oriented Helio A series). They also have the MT67xx SoCs, which are not as good as the Helio series.

tecno camera is a wow factor

nice post,i have learned something new and you have answered a lot of questions with this post.

Techvenge:
If you are one of those guys planning to buy a new phone and you are really confused about whether to buy a phone running on Snapdragon or MediaTek chipset this post is for you.

As against what many of you think, Snapdragon and MediaTek are not just processors, they are called system on a chip or SoC in technical term. So what exactly is an SoC? It is a single chip which contains your CPU, GPU, cellular modem, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth modules etc.

https://i2.wp.com/www.techvenge.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/snap.jpg?zoom=2&resize=300%2C168&ssl=1

Now if you are wondering why your old phone doesn’t support 4G that’s probably because it doesn’t have the necessary radio sensors built within its SoC. So it is important to know what SoC is used in the smartphone you are planning to buy. The two leading SoC makers at the moment are Qualcomm with its Snapdragon range and MediaTek with its MT chipsets. That leads us to a question.


Which SoC is better?-MediaTek Or Snapdragon.

To answer this question, we need to compare the chipsets and find out what’s the difference between them. Considering the CPU, both Snapdragon and MediaTek processes are based on architecture. It is an architecture that is designed primarily for low energy consumption, for example, a typical quad-core processor has two high power cores for high performance and two low power cores for low energy consumption.

Now you may be wondering if both chipsets use the same architecture what’s the difference? The main difference is that MediaTek doesn’t tinker with the architecture whereas Qualcomm modifies architecture to optimize its chipset for better performance and low power consumption.

Considering the GPU, Qualcomm uses its own Adreno GPU in its chipset while MediaTek uses Arms Mali GPU. Both the GPUs are great but developers usually prefer Adreno to develop and test their games, so some apps and games will not be compatible with phones running on MediaTek Mali GPU.


PERFORMANCE.

When it comes to performance. There is no comparison since MediaTek concentrates mostly in the budget segment whereas Snapdragon, on the other hand, is the standard chipset for all high-end phones. So how does Snapdragon chipset achieve high performance? The secret is heterogeneous computing.

Let me explain with an example, if we use the camera app on a Snapdragon chipset there is a separate camera module that processes the images and this utilizes less battery whereas in MediaTek processor both CPUs and GPUs are involved in image processing, this leads to more heat dissipation and faster battery drainage.

MediaTek believes in profit from volumes rather than bigger profits from selling lesser units. This is what has made the company the go-to chipset manufacturer for low-cost handsets, on the other hand, Qualcomm Snapdragon is all about cutting-edge technology and is a bit pricier.

Due to this reason, phones using Qualcomm chipsets are usually much pricier than the MediaTek counterparts.

So, finally which chipset is better? There is no simple answer for this, it really depends upon your usage and the price you are willing to spend. Go for MediaTek based devices if you are looking for budget smartphones. On the other hand, when your budget is higher going for a Qualcomm port smartphone is a better idea.

Oga forget English Pocophone F1 is da bomb........forget 12mp camara n other things, by the time u start using the phone u will understand

Tecno really have great spec and nice product

Lol there's no argument here I have a Nokia 2 and infinix smart.. The Nokia2 uses snap dragon while infinix mtk... I can't even play pubg lite on d infinix without lag.. But on my Nokia 2 it plays flawlessly no lag nothing

Itzneowizy:
Huawei and Gionee made use of mtks ...even Xiaomi...the current huawei Y6 is mtk....why did the OP say snapdragon phones are better optimized and do not heat up...some snapdragon phones are cookers...dey need internal fan self.... The current helio p60 transcends some of this sd chips, optimization and all round

I read in so many places that redmi note 8 pro with MTK helio is better in gaming then it's sister redmi 8 with snapdragon.
