Samsung Exynos W920 vs MediaTek Dimensity 8100 vs MediaTek Dimensity 7050

Samsung Exynos W920

The Samsung Exynos W920 is a dual-core ARM based SoC for IoT (Internet of Things) devices like smartwatches. It was announced in 2021 and integrates two ARM Cortex A55 cores clocked at 1.18 GHz. It is manufactured in the modern 5nm process. In addition to the CPU cores, the chip also integrates a ARM Mali-G68 MP2 GPU, Cat.4 (DL) / Cat.5 (UL) LTE modem, 1080p HEVC/H.264/VP8 video engine and a LPDDR4 memory controller.

MediaTek Dimensity 8100

The Mediatek Dimensity 8100 is a upper mid-range smartphone SoC. The CPU integrates four fast ARM Cortex-A78 cores with up to 2.85 GHz and four efficient Cortex-A55 cores with up to 2 GHz. The integrated 5G modem supports all modern standards including 5G SA and a maximum download speed of 4.7 Gbps.

The integrated ARM Mali-G610 MC6 GPU integrates 6 cores and supports displays with up to 2,960 x 1,440 pixels (WQHD+).

The chip is produced at TSMC in 5nm.

MediaTek Dimensity 7050

The Mediatek Dimensity 7050 (Mediatek MT8791N/TN)  is a mid-range ARM SoC (system-on-a-chip) that can be used in both smartphones and tablets (mainly Android). The SoC integrates two ARM Cortex-A78 cores with up to 2.6 GHz for demanding tasks and six power-saving ARM Cortex-A55 cores with clock rates of up to 2 GHz. The specifications are identical to the old Dimensity 1080.

The chip has an integrated sub-6 GHz 5G modem including dual-SIM support that can reach a maximum download speed of up to 2.77 Gbit/s. Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) is supported as well as Bluetooth 5.2.

The memory controller copes with LPDDR4x or LPDDR5 working memory as well as UFS 3.1 mass storage. As an integrated graphics card, the SoC uses the ARM Mali-G68 MC4, which supports displays with 120 Hz as well as HDR10+ at a maximum resolution of 2,520 x 1,440 pixels.

The MediaTek Dimensity 7050 is still manufactured in 6 nm.
