General info
Supports 64-bit
✔MediaTek Dimensity 8020
✔Samsung Exynos 1480
A 32-bit operating system can only support up to 4GB of RAM. 64-bit allows more than 4GB, giving increased performance. It also allows you to run 64-bit apps.
Has integrated graphics
✔MediaTek Dimensity 8020
✔Samsung Exynos 1480
With integrated graphics you don’t need to buy a separate graphics card.
semiconductor size
6 nm
4 nm
Small semiconductors provide better performance and reduced power consumption. Chipsets with a higher number of transistors, semiconductor components of electronic devices, offer more computational power. A small form factor allows more transistors to fit on a chip, therefore increasing its performance.
GPU clock speed
850 MHz
950 MHz
The clock speed of the graphics processing unit (GPU).
has 5G support
✔MediaTek Dimensity 8020
✔Samsung Exynos 1480
The fifth-generation wireless technology delivers higher speeds and lower latency than the previous, fourth-generation tech.
GPU turbo
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (MediaTek Dimensity 8020)
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Samsung Exynos 1480)
When the GPU is running below its limitations, it can boost to a higher clock speed in order to give increased performance.
DirectX version
DirectX 12
DirectX 12
DirectX is used in video games, with newer versions supporting better graphics and features. The latest version is DirectX 12 Ultimate, which includes support for ray tracing, mesh shaders, and variable rate shading (VRS).
OpenGL ES version
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (MediaTek Dimensity 8020)
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Samsung Exynos 1480)
OpenGL ES is used for games on mobile devices such as smartphones. Newer versions support better graphics.
OpenCL version
2
2
Some apps use OpenCL to apply the power of the graphics processing unit (GPU) for non-graphical computing. Newer versions introduce more functionality and better performance.
Performance
CPU speed
4 x 2.6 GHz & 4 x 2 GHz
4 x 2.75 GHz & 4 x 2.05 GHz
The CPU speed indicates how many processing cycles per second can be executed by a CPU, considering all of its cores (processing units). It is calculated by adding the clock rates of each core or, in the case of multi-core processors employing different microarchitectures, of each group of cores.
CPU threads
8 threads
8 threads
More threads result in faster performance and better multitasking.
Uses big.LITTLE technology
✔MediaTek Dimensity 8020
✔Samsung Exynos 1480
Using big.LITTLE technology, a chip can switch between two sets of processor cores to maximize performance and battery life. For example, when playing a game the more powerful cores will be used to increase performance, whereas checking email will use the less powerful cores to maximize battery life.
Uses HMP
✔MediaTek Dimensity 8020
✔Samsung Exynos 1480
Heterogeneous Multi-Processing (HMP) is a more advanced version of big.LITTLE technology. In this setup, a processor can utilize all cores at the same time, or just a single core for low-intensity tasks. This can provide powerful performance or increased battery life respectively.
