Samsung Exynos 1480 vs UNISOC SC9863A

Samsung Exynos 1480

► remove from comparison Samsung Exynos 1480

The Samsung Exynos 1480 is a system on a chip (SoC) for mid-range smartphones and tablets based on Android. The CPU is made up of two clusters, each consisting of four cores. Four Cortex-A78 power cores (up to 2.75 GHz) and four Cortex-A55 power cores (up to 2.05 GHz) are used. The integrated graphics unit (GPU) is a Samsung Xclipse 530. The chipset supports Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3. Both LPDDR4x and LPDDR5 can be connected as RAM. UFS 3.1 is possible as internal memory.

The performance of the new AI engine with 6K MAC NPU is said to be around four times higher than its predecessor. In addition, displays with up to 144 Hz and Full HD+ can be used and cameras with up to 200 MPix are supported. The improved ISP now also enables videos in Ultra HD with up to 60 frames per second and is also capable of HDR and zero-shutter lag (ZSL).

The integrated modem has again received a significant speed boost for downloads and is considerably faster for both 5G-Sub6 (download: up to 5.1 GBit/s, upload: up to 1.28 GBit/s) and 5G-mmWave (download: up to 4.84 GBit/s, upload: up to 0.92 GBit/s), but remains unchanged for uploads since the Exynos 1280. There are no changes for LTE (Cat. 18, download: up to 1.2 GBit/s, upload up to 0.211 GBit/s).

The Exynos 1480 is manufactured by Samsung using the 4 nm process (Samsung 4LPP).

UNISOC SC9863A

► remove from comparison

The Unisoc SC9863A (formerly Spreadtrum) is an entry level octa core SoC with 8 ARM Cortex-A55 cores in two clusters. One performance cluster with up to 1.6 GHz and a efficiency cluster with up to 1.2 GHz. The SoC also integrates an LTE modem (TDD-LTE/FDD-LTE/TD-SCDMA/WCDMA/GGE), a PowerVR IMG8322 /GE8322 graphics card and 1080p video support.
