My Review Using a Device with the G70

Ricardo

8 / 10

The performance of the G70 is pretty good. However, if you're into gaming, the G85 is preferable, as there are some games that are not supported like Genshin, etc. But playing Nikke is still okay, it doesn't lag too much, unless the device heats up. For Genshin, it's best to avoid it due to the severe lag.

Pros

  • For a processor that's priced low, this processor's performance is fairly fast
  • Battery life is pretty enduring

Cons

  • Can't play Genshin
  • Heats up quickly if used to play games
  • Initially fast, but performance significantly drops after 2-3 years of use

General info

Supports 64-bit
MediaTek Helio G70
Qualcomm Snapdragon 630
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 Helio G70
Qualcomm Snapdragon 630
With integrated graphics you don’t need to buy a separate graphics card.
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.

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 11

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 is used for games on mobile devices such as smartphones. Newer versions support better graphics.
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

2 x 2 GHz & 6 x 1.7 GHz

4 x 2.2 GHz & 4 x 1.8 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 Helio G70
Qualcomm Snapdragon 630
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 Helio G70
Qualcomm Snapdragon 630
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.
