Mediatek MT8766B vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 630

Mediatek MT8766B

The Mediatek MT8766B is an entry-level ARM SoC for smartphones and tablets (mainly Android-based) that was introduced in 2020. It integrates four ARM Cortex-A53 cores clocked at up to 2 GHz. and a PowerVR GE6300 GPU. It looks very similar to the older Helio A20 (-200 MHz CPU core clock).

The integrated memory controller supports LPDDR4x. Furthermore, a LTE radio with Cat-4 DL (150 Mbps download) and Cat-5 UL (75 Mbps upload) and a 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi 5 modem is integrated.

The SoC should be produced in the same 12nm process as the Helio A20 (most likely the same chip).

Qualcomm Snapdragon 630

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 630 (SDM630) is a mid-range octa-core SoC with eight ARM Cortex-A53 CPU cores at up to 2.2 GHz, an Adreno 508 GPU, a LPDDR4-2666 memory controller (1333 MHz) and a X12 LTE (Cat 12/13, 300 Mbps down, 150 Mbps up) modem. Furthermore, the chip supports 802.11ac WiFi and Bluetooth 5.0. It is manufactured in 14nm FinFet. The processor performance should similar to the older Snapdragon 626 which offers similar clock speeds. Compared to the 626, the 630 however supports faster memory and offers faster LTE, Wifi and Bluetooth standards.
