The gap between the Snapdragon 675 and the Snapdragon 855 is all-round. Don’t forget, the Snapdragon 855 is positioned as the flagship. The next flagships are the Snapdragon 730 and 712, and the next one is 675. 675 is two feet lower than 855. Grades.
From the perspective of hardware architecture, the gap between the two chips is more obvious:
-
In terms of CPU, the Snapdragon 855 just sent two large cores to the 675, and lowered the maximum frequency from 2.84GHz to 2.0GHz, with a frequency reduction of more than 40%;
-
In terms of CPU core configuration, all cores of 855 use ARM's latest core A76, and the small core of 675 is still very good A55, which is two grades behind A76;
-
In terms of GPU, 675 is at least three generations behind 855;
-
In terms of memory, although they all support fourth-generation memory, the speed is much worse. 855 supports 2133MHz, which is close to the memory speed of most laptops today. 675 only supports 1866MHz, which is close to the memory speed of ultra-thin notebooks two years ago. ；
-
In terms of baseband, 675's LTE Cat.12 downlink speed is only 600Mbps, and the 855's baseband downlink speed can reach 2Gbps, which is more than three times that of 675;
There is no need to compare the running scores of the two chips. The difference between motorcycles and sports cars: Snapdragon 855 AnTuTu scores over 360,000 points, and 675 scores over 170,000 points.
In terms of price, the after-tax price of the Snapdragon 855 is about 600 yuan/piece, and the Snapdragon 675 is about 300 yuan/piece.
In short, Qualcomm is very accurate about the positioning of these two chips. You want to buy the performance of the 855 at the price of 675, but it won't work.
