The Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Mobile Platform is a high-end SoC for smartphones that was introduced in late 2022 and manufactured in 4 nm at TSMC (N4P). It integrates four different CPU clusters. A fast and big prime core based on the ARM Cortex-X3 architecture and clocked at up to 3.2 GHz for 64 bit applications. Two more ARM Cortex-A715 based performance cores clocked at up to 2.8 GHz (also only for 64 bit apps). Two more Cortex-A710 performance cores at up to 2.8 GHz that can also be used for older apps and three efficiency cores (ARM Cortex-A510 with up to 2 GHz). All cores can use the shared 8 MB level 3 cache.
Thanks to the new architecture and high clock rates, the SD 8 Gen 2 is the fastest mobile CPU for Android based devices and is only topped by current Apple SoCs like the Apple A16 (see benchmarks below).
The chip also integrates a Hexagon accelerator for AI workloads (tensor, scalar and vector). Qualcomm states that its one of the first chips with INT4 support and up to 4.35x performance compared to the previous generation.
The 18-Bit-Spectra ISP is able to process photos with up to 200 MP and work with videos up to 8k30 (including 10-bit, HDR10+, HLG and Dolby Vision).
A big improvement of the Snapdragon 8 G2 is the integrated Adreno 740 GPU, that now supports Hardware Raytracing and tops even the iGPU in the Apple A16.
The integrated AI Engine can offer up to 4x faster AI performance thanks to the bigger Tensor engine. The 18-Bit-Spectra-ISP also saw some big improvements and is now called Snapdragon Sight.
The integrated Adreno 730 offers a 30% graphics boost compared to the previous Adreno 660.
The integrated Snapdragon X70 5G modem is also new as is the FastConnect 7800 modem with Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.3 support.
UNISOC Tangula T760

The Unisoc T760 Tanggula (former Spreadtrum) is a mid range SoC for Android based smartphones and tablets. It integrates an octa-core CPU with two clusters. Four fast ARM Cortex-A76 cores clocked at up to 2 GHz and four small ARM-Cortex-A55 cores at again up to 2 GHz for efficiency. The faster T770 SoC offers higher clocked A76 cores in comparison (up to 2.5 GHz for a single core).
One fast ARM Cortex-A76 clocked at up to 2.5 GHz, three more A76 performance cores clocked at up to 2.2 GHz and a power efficiency cluster of four ARM-Cortex-A55 cores with up to 2 GHz. The integrated memory controller supports LPDDR4/4X with up to 2133 MHz (2x 16 Bit). The integrated ISP supports two main cameras and two subsidiary cameras (up to 108 MPix). The integrated graphics card is an ARM Mali-G57 MC4 (4 cores) at up to 780 MHz. Unisoc also specifies that the T770 offers hardware AI acceleration.
The chip is manufactured in the modern 6nm process.
MediaTek Dimensity 6080
► remove from comparison![Mediatek Dimensity 6080](fileadmin/_processed_/b/1/csm_mediatek-dimensity-5g-chip-generic_58092ef88a.jpg)
The MediaTek Dimensity 6080 (MT6833V/MT6833GP) is an ARM-based SoC (system-on-a-chip) manufactured by TSMC using the 6 nm process. It was specially designed for use in Android smartphones and is in the lower mid-range in terms of performance. It supports all current mobile communication standards, including 5G Sub6.
The SoC is identical to the MediaTek Dimensity 810 the only difference is that the Dimensity 6080 can cope with a camera resolution of up to 108 megapixels.
The CPU works with a total of eight cores, which are divided into two clusters. One has two ARM Cortex-A76 power cores with up to 2.4 GHz each, while the other has six ARM Cortex-A55 energy-saving cores with up to 2.0 GHz each. LPDDR4x RAM with 2,133 MHz can be used as RAM and UFS 2.2 is supported as internal memory.
In terms of connectivity, dual 5G (Sub6) with a theoretical peak download speed of up to 2.77 GBit/s is available, as well as Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.1.
The integrated graphics unit ARM Mali-G57 MP2 can power displays with a resolution of up to 2,520 x 1,080 pixels (Full HD+) and a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz.
