MediaTek Dimensity 820 vs Unisoc SC9832E

VS
The Unisoc SC9832E and MediaTek Dimensity 820 are two processors that differ in terms of their specifications.

Starting with the Unisoc SC9832E, it features a 4x 1.4 GHz Cortex-A53 architecture, with four CPU cores. It operates on the ARMv8-A instruction set and has a lithography of 28 nm. The TDP (Thermal Design Power) of this processor is 7 Watts.

In contrast, the MediaTek Dimensity 820 boasts a more advanced architecture. It consists of 4x 2.6 GHz Cortex-A76 cores and 4x 2.0 GHz Cortex-A55 cores, resulting in a total of eight CPU cores. It follows the ARMv8.2-A instruction set and has a smaller lithography of 7 nm. The TDP of this processor is slightly higher at 10 Watts. Additionally, the Dimensity 820 also includes a Neural Processing Unit (NPU), which provides AI processing capabilities.

In terms of performance, the MediaTek Dimensity 820 is likely to deliver better results due to its higher clock speed and more advanced architecture. The use of Cortex-A76 cores, known for their high performance, gives it an edge over the Unisoc SC9832E. The inclusion of the NPU also enhances its AI processing capabilities.

However, it is essential to consider power consumption as well. The Unisoc SC9832E is designed to operate at a lower TDP of 7 Watts, which can be more energy-efficient compared to the Dimensity 820, which operates at a TDP of 10 Watts.

Ultimately, the choice between these two processors would depend on the specific requirements of the device they are being used in. If performance and AI capabilities are crucial, the MediaTek Dimensity 820 would be the better option. On the other hand, if power efficiency is a priority, the Unisoc SC9832E may be the more suitable choice.
