Exynos 7872 showdown Xiaolong 630 | thousands of king battle

If it is not 999 Charm Blue S6, Samsung's latest mid-range SoC - Exynos 7872, there is no possibility to enter the domestic mobile phone player's field of vision. Some time ago we evaluate the overall performance of Charm blue S6, the aircraft in the "king glory" Excellent performance can not help but let us Exynos 7872 interested in the specific performance.

The so-called SoC is also a wonderful work, in the 8-core CPU in power today, it is equipped with a 6-core CPU; when everyone's public version of Mali GPUs use 8 or 12 cores, it only has a single-core 1.2GHz Mali -G71 GPU. Right now the cheapest Qualcomm Snapdragon 630 terminals have also been sold for 999 yuan, in the face of a powerful Snapdragon platform, the performance of the Samsung Exynos 7872 how much lethality? Xiaolong 630 'thousands of performance Wang' The throne can not sit firm? This is our evaluation of this issue of concern.

Familiar with our SoC evaluation methods of small partners know that our test is divided into benchmarks and 30-minute performance test machine kiosk test two parts, of which the first part by GeekBench 4 run points out the winner, the second part is a large game (GameBench full record of the game performance.) Thousands of machines due to the general weak performance, the 30-minute copy machine selected full-medium quality "NBA 2K17" rather than full-height picture quality; our two protagonists were respectively Is equipped with Samsung Exynos 7872 Charm Blue S6, and equipped with Qualcomm Xiaolong 630 Nokia 7.

Benchmark performance test

The so-called SoC benchmark performance is the performance of a SoC running in an unobstructed environment; in other words, the benchmark performance is the theoretical performance. "When a chip maker publishes a SoC, it often mentions' Improved by XX% ', where the word' performance 'refers to the reference performance.As the ideal environment does not exist in reality, we will be two parameters measuring cell phone into the refrigerator freezer, as much as possible to control the temperature of this variable.

GeekBench 4 is a very valuable testing tool that can be used to quantify the CPU and GPU benchmark performance of a SoC. To ensure that both phones can maximize SoC performance, run the sub-process, Charm Blue S6 is in High-performance mode, but did not have high-performance mode Nokia 7 also did not open the power-saving mode.

CPU part of the test results is very beautiful, the perfect embodiment of the two SoC in the CPU hardware specifications differences Exynos 7872 is the only thousand-level SoC equipped with A73 big core, the single-core score of up to 1319 points, almost equal to Qualcomm Snapdragon 660; however multi-core, 6-core Exynos 7872 CPU can not compete with the 8-core Snapdragon 630. Overall, Exynos 7872's CPU benchmark performance similar to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 650 three years ago, in the single Thread task-based daily application, the existence of two A73 core will be more popular.

However, GPU baseline performance score is still exposed the weakness of the Exynos 7872. What is the concept of 1820 points? Even the Xiaolong 450 GPU are stronger than it. The campaign Xiaolong 630 is hit 3673 points 'crit damage' Exynos 7872 is twice as many, a clean spike.It looks like Charm Blue S6 "King glory" excellent performance may only Flyme game mode for this popular online games 'focus on' due to the entire game Full performance will cause huge heat and power loss.In order to verify this conjecture, we conducted the next kapok test.

Actual scene test

Every time before the actual scene test, we must be friends to remind one: benchmark performance is something you never experience in everyday life, not only the ambient temperature and battery status will affect the performance of the phone experience, the number of processes, resource consumption, etc. So you have to include other variables, therefore, the purchase of mobile phones must not only look at the hardware specifications, we must personally restore to the actual experience to know whether this phone is easy to use.

The actual scene test in the winter room temperature environment (17 ℃) under the actual performance of the phone will be closer to its baseline performance than in summer, Here we release two test cell phone test results.

First of all, the Samsung Exynos 7872 (Charm Blue S6), in the picture quality "NBA 2K17", its full frame rate median 28fps, frame rate stability (median plus or minus 20% range of the frame rate distribution ratio) 77.08%. Taking into account the charm blue S6 screen resolution of only 720P, this result is not good; In addition, we can see from the frame rate distribution chart, the charm blue S6 frame rate greater floating, some frame rate The distribution even appears below 20fps; Game Caton from time to time the phenomenon also caused considerable loss of the entire gaming experience.

In contrast, the performance of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 630 (Nokia 7) is very stable and efficient. 37fps frame rate median and 81.49% frame rate stability makes it all the way to maintain smooth; Although the Nokia 7 frame rate fluctuations are not Small, but the entire game process does not appear below 20fps frame rate distribution, called "no catching." The point is, Nokia 7 screen resolution up to 1080P, two SoC rendering screen is completely not in a volume Level, but the Snapdragon 630 is still easy to kill the Exynos 7872.

In the actual scene test of the first 10 minutes and 30 minutes these two time points, respectively, Charm Blue S6 and Nokia 7 fuselage surface temperature of the highest point for infrared temperature measurement.

First look at Charm Blue S6. Even if the room temperature is only 17 ℃, the performance of the Exynos 7872 platform full heat still can not be underestimated. 10 minutes after the start of the game, the mobile phone surface temperature is near the extreme temperature of 36 ℃; , Its temperature is as high as 39 ℃ (3.3 ℃), you can feel obviously hot.It seems that the two angry A73 with single core high frequency (1.2GHz) Mali-G71 combination, completely called the stove; If the test took place in the summer at room temperature (25 ℃) environment, Charm Blue S6 fuselage temperature must be above 40 ℃, which is a high-performance snapdragon 835 terminal equipment can not reach the temperature.

Although Qualcomm Snapdragon 630 performance not really good, but still beat the Exynos 7872, and demonstrated the perfect ability to continue temperature control (twice the temperature change of only 1.5 ℃) .To know, at 1080P resolution running copy The Snapdragon 630 machine test needs to handle a larger workload, its performance is clearly more satisfactory.

to sum up

In the face of the powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 630, the hardware specifications are 'seesaw' like the Samsung Exynos 7872 in the final defeat.These two SoCs are using Samsung 14nm LPP process technology, however, regardless of performance or temperature performance, they Are not in the same order.

For now, the best performance Thousand Yuan machine is still selected Xiao-630 platform, which is equipped with a balanced 8-core A53 architecture CPU and powerful Adreno 508 GPU - especially the latter's low temperature and high performance, is the public Version of Mali GPU simply can not bring the experience.

If it is not 999 Charm Blue S6, Samsung's latest mid-range SoC - Exynos 7872, there is no possibility to enter the domestic mobile phone player's field of vision.
