SD888's Cortex X1 brought massive 30% IPC improvement over A77 so that's why it consumes a lot. Also after single A77 core the next gen brought two big cores: big and BIGGER (big A78 and bigger X1). The X-series is tuned for max performance/IPC at higher transistor cost (higher chip area), kind trying to target Apple's big cores. - Cortex A76 has IPC at Zen 1 level, not bad - Cortex A77 has IPC 20% above A76 at Zen 2 / Coffelake level - Cortex A78 has 5% more IPC so slightly better than Zen 2 - Cortex X1 has 30% more IPC than A77 so beating Zen 3 by 7% ... 46% above A76 - Cortex X2 has 10% more IPC than X1 so beating Zen 3 by 18% and Zen 4 by 4% ... 60% above A76 - new revealed Cortex X3 should have 10% higher IPC than X2 so 14% above Zen 4 ... 76% above A76 - Apple A15 Avalanche core is monster .... it has IPC higher 55% above Zen 3, 39% above Zen 4, and 22% above X3 .... 111% above A76 (double IPC) It's pretty amazing how ARM micro-architectures evolved from pretty decent A76 from 2018. In just 4 years they almost doubled IPC and left x86 in the dust. My comment to A710 inefficiency: - I think that's the reason why new A715 has no micro-Op cache. ARM focused to increase efficiency to fix A710. - Apple doesn't use micro-Op cache at all (and is super efficient) while x86 ARM Zen 4 has huge 6750 entry, Intel's Golden Cove 4000 entry (power hogs) - x86 needs micro-Op cache to overcome variable length instruction coding issue of CISC ISA (every x86 instr can have 1byte to 15 bytes) which is problem when CPU needs to decode 8 instruction per clock (8th instruction can be anywhere between 8th byte and 127 byte). That's why Zen 4 has huge micro-Op cache and just 4 decoders (half of Apple) even micro-op cache is power hungry. Even worse would be for x86 to deal with geometrical explosion at decode side. ISA does matter for efficiency. - ARM's 32-bit RISC fixed length encoding produce 20% bigger binary code however super easy and efficient to decode any number of instruction for high IPC - ISA does matter. - Modern RISC ISA like ARMv9 from 2020 could be powerful and efficient in the same time. - Old CISC ISA like x86 from 1978 can never be efficient. However performance can be delivered out of x86 - at cost of many transistors for old ISA workarounds and sacrificing efficiency (micro-Op cache, sophisticated predictors for instruction position in decoders etc. all things modern ISA doesn't need at all so saving development time, money and power) - micro-Op cache appeared in the ARM world for the 1st time in Cortex A77 and now slowly abandoning it

[@Chaz2x4]

This is the best performance data breakdown I’ve seen for modern smartphones. It makes it super clear why Apple has switched to efficiency cores, but also shows how they can still dominate on top end performance. Great information, great breakdown of the data. Excited to see the specs for the A16, though I don’t think there will be a huge improvement compared to the A15.

[@iau]

Incredible video! My CPU takeaways: - Benchmark scores are USELESS because they only measure _peak_ performance, which your phone uses less than 1% of the time. Manufacturers will exploit this by drawing more power to look better than last gen. - The better metric is power efficiency, which is delivering better performance even when drawing less power. - Qualcomm: Actually stagnated for YEARS, making WORSE chips, until the 8 Gen 1+ (much better than the 8 Gen 1) - Samsung: Exynos is actually equivalent to Snapdragon - Apple: Smoking the competition, but only since the A14, previous were comparable to Android chips. - Mediatek: Surprising challenger. Their latest mid range chip is as good as the Apple A14 (better than everyone else on Android). - Google: Tensor = TRASH 😂

[@iau]

I'll just add my GPU takeaways: - Peak GPU performance is even less important, even for gaming, since most phones will be bottlenecked by power draw or the CPU. Efficiency at low power matters most since most games run their GPUs on lower power. - The market is much more competitive in this space, but still Apple leads the race, with Qualcomm and Mediatek following, then Exynos and Tensor last

[@johnpalmovis6256]

First off, thank you for this video! It's simply put exceptional! Now that you mostly have all the data, could you guys make another video focusing even more on the single-threaded performance of the cores and their comparisons? The reasoning for that is that outside of games the single-threaded performance is what users mostly notice - the startup times of apps, the speed of most foreground apps in use, the speed of switching apps etc. You communicated well in this video the importance of multi-threaded performance for battery life and (well-optimized) games. Outside of games, however, the user experience of the phones is still, and arguably always will be, largely determined by the single core performance (given that the GPU is at least OK and there are more than ~2 cores). And one thing which is different in that context is that the peak performance does matter, because the full turbo of a single core is not unusual, but it is kept very brief in the sake of thermals and battery-life.

[@OscarRobbing]

Yet another absolutely stellar piece of research and analysis! You guys are actually the best mobile technology channel on KZbin.

[@JoshuaG]

This is like the Linus Tech Tips of mobile phones data , graphs, power analysis, any bit of information you could get your hands on is on this channel ❤️❤️😍

[@AntonioNoack]

The amount of slides and graphs in like Hardware Unboxed :D (so great)

[@Arberorinatit]

I would love to see a video from you on the Snapdragon 8 gen2. Your videos about processors are the best.

[@llobell86]

Great content. magnífico, bravo! we need a 2024 update though :)

[@untemi0]

WoW the amount of effort you put in your videos are crazy

[@vladmihai306]

you deserve 10m+ subs and you will reach that, keep on doing these videos!

[@thenoobyesp]

This is just amazing, such great amount of data presented in a really clean way. This channel is the greatest for geeks!!

[@mialoron8455]

I really like what you said.. "This is like an Intel Chip ....... in a ........ smartphone!" You really solidified my decision to go to phones with MEDIATEK 8100.. Thank you very much

[@raymartecoto8389]

Aww man! You are the future of smartphone reviews!!! Hella info so clear .. eye opener . Thanks a lot . GODBLESS .

We want more of the mobile phone overclocking!

You'll have it soon😏

@@Dhaval_parmar08 We're definitely looking into iPhone tuning on jailbroken device, more like profile tweaking rather than OC, but it works pretty well, stay tune😉

The amount of effort for this video is exceptional. Thank you for making this GREAT comparison. GOOD JOB GEEKERWAN ❤️

[@vincelongman3264]

Amazing review! We really need Samsung Foundry to catch up to TSMC so Samsung Exynos/Google Tensor don't get left even further behind Qualcomm/MediaTek/Apple

[@h0har7lshw]

I was dreaming for test like this for sooo long. You're the best 👍

[@rabin_john]

I genuinely appreciate your hardwork and intelligence, and highly applaud your data driven tech review. This is what we need. A channel akin to gamer's nexus for smartphones !!!

[@minhhoang6438]

The chart for smartphone were so great I really want to see the same chart for computer processor, especially for laptops, see how Intel and AMD has been doing, and how much more efficiency Apple has been doing

[@Mitorafer]

What a great video! very detailed and informative! I have switched many xiaomi phones all using snapdragons, I have used Redmi K20 Pro (855), Mi 10 Pro (865), Mi 11 Ultra (888) and currently Xiaomi 12s Ultra (8+ gen 1), I can honestly say during the days of 855 the phone was very fast but also got pretty warm at times, it was a great phone but not that efficient, then I got the Mi 10 Pro and boy that phone was so efficient, it was ice cold when picked up after no use, it didn't get too warm when under heavy load and and the battery lasted so long great chipset!, then Mi 11 ultra with 888 was horrible performance wise, the switch to samsung 5nm from tsmc 7+nm was so horrible, phone did felt a bit faster at times, but the phone got so hot so easily, it is very bad, also battery dies super quick, I totally not recommend buying the phone just because of the chipset, then I got the 12s Ultra and that fixed everything, suddenly the phone doesn't heat up as much, suddenly I can use it for longer while keeping all settings turned on, everything is super fast, it feels like a rocket compared to 888, so yeah I had many experienced with phones, for short: if you want the best of both worlds (good performance and best efficiency go for snapdragon 865/865+ or 870 all are great and plenty fast), if you want the best performance while reducing a bit of battery life (due to higher peak performance requirements) go for snapdragon 8+ gen 1 (the plus version) if you really hate yourself and want an oven in your pocket get the 888 (or according to the video the snapdragon 8 gen 1 (non plus version), by my experiene the 888 is horrible and not worth the small performance increase compared to 865. hope this helps anyone considering a snapdragon powered device, and because of this video, I will wait to see if there is a difference in next chipset instead of blindly buying "the next best thing" these companies shove us

[@RizkyBambangWiratmoko]

Agree with that. I have poco f3 and S21 (exynos variant), and to my suprise, both on daily and gaming Poco f3 win by a long shot. I can play ganshin impact on 60 fps for 30 minutes without many hiccups on poco f3 (granted it, I also use custom kernel, but that only squeeze the performance a little bit), but on samsung, even loading the game take my phone to a whopping 43 degC, throttling down my phone to measly 30 fps or even less lmao.

[@bulletpunch9317]

There was probably something wrong with your k20 pro if it wasnt ice cold after no use. Even old 28nm phones are cold.

[@Mitorafer]

@@bulletpunch9317 maybe, it was only hot after long use, but wasn't hot when inactive

[@bulletpunch9317]

@@Mitorafer ah ok

[@RizkyBambangWiratmoko]

@TOM don't care with your allegations. I'm only speak about experience that I have. Just loading 100 mb update and verification takes my s21 to 43 degC. I'm deciding to sell poco f3 initially but after seeing how bad s21 fare in games, I think I should keep it for a while.

[@ORION-hf6fu]

You guys are amazing. Talking some serious technical stuff and doing deep analysis with great explainations. Keep it up 💯

Super video, the strongest nail in the Samsung Foundry's coffin to cement the foundry once and for all

[@YgorCortes]

This video couldn't have been any better. Thank you so much for this!

[@Grimtou]

Solid review - I was surprised that the marketing from qualcomm was so far off from reality in application vs cherry picked test cases. I'd be interested in similar tests for modems/displays as they are the other major contributor to mobile platform power draw, and are even more obscure in details compared to the SOC.

[@spectrum_gg]

Hey, thank you for putting in all the work to make this video. It was actaully eye opening just to see all of this data and hope to see more of these types of analyses later on. The way you guys also laid out the graphs and presented everything made it 10x better too.

[@bjones1794]

Absolutely loved the video. Super insightful and informative. Liked and subscribed! As a big google fan, I would be super interested in seeing some analysis between the last 3 or 4 generations of Google Pixel Processors! Google Tensor, the SD765, and the SD855. I'd also be super interested in breakdowns in modem performance and efficiency between these 3 devices! The pixel 6 series has very bad battery life compared to the competition, while my pixel 5 was actually pretty good. And from what I know, the pixel 4XL was awful. I think there might be a lot to cover and unveil between them!

[@allan_f2203]

This is an amazing video explaining everything. I already knew dimension 8100 was going to perform well since one 8100 powered Xiaomi phone has been under my radar for a while

[@allan_f2203]

I ended up buying the 8100 phone. Love the battery life and performance
