The Helio G70 is one of MediaTek’s newest processors. Since its announcement in January 2020, the processor has appeared in one device so far, and that is the Realme C3. As part of the marketing for the chipset, MediaTek has released a video comparing it against Qualcomm‘s Snapdragon 665 processor.
Since the Realme C3 is the only commercially-available phone with an Helio G70 processor, it is no surprise that it is the device MediaTek has chosen for its test. The Snapdragon 665 phone used for comparison is the OPPO A9 2020. The comparison covers areas such as Benchmark Scores, App Launch Time, and Game Launch Time.
The first test has both phones running AnTuTu and the result shows the Helio G70 wins the round with 193,790 points as against the Snapdragon 665’s 166,126 points. It is important to state that both phones are not running the same version of AnTuTu. Actually, the Realme C3 is running a more recent version of the benchmark app. There is also a Geekbench test, a 3DMark test, and a GFXBench test. And the Helio G70 comes out on top in all scenarios.
For App Launch Time, the time to launch apps such as YouTube and Flipkart are compared. While the Realme C3 was faster in loading YouTube, both devices tied with respect to Flipkart.
The last stage of the test compares launch time for games such as PUBG, Asphalt 9, and Call of Duty. The image below shows the result of the tests.
While the Helio G70 does win all three rounds, the Snapdragon 665 is definitely not lagging behind. Nevertheless, MediaTek does deserve to be praised as its latest chipsets have tremendously improved and even beat the competition.
The Helio G70 is a 12nm chipset with 4x Cortex-A75 cores clocked at 2GHz and 4x Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 1.7GHz. It has a Mali-G52 GPU clocked at 820MHz. The Snapdragon 665 is an 11nm processor with 8x Kryo 260 cores (semi-custom Cortex-A73 cores + semi-custom Cortex-A53 cores) clocked at 2.0GHz. It has an Adreno 610 GPU.
