#qualcomm snapdragon 835 benchmarks

The Kirin 970 was flexing its muscle against the Exynos 8895 so we also tested how it fares against Qualcomm's Snapdragon 835. For this test, we used the Huawei Mate 10 Pro running on Kirin 970 and the Xiaomi Mi 6 running on the Snapdragon 835. [table id=370 /] Surprisingly, the Kirin 970 and Snapdragon 835 are statistically tied in a lot of the CPU-crunching tests -- from Antutu, GeekBench and PCMark Work 2.0. The only time where the Snapdragon 835 had a significant lead over the Kirin 970 is in the graphics department as shown by the 3DMark scores. Over-all though, we can say that the Kirin 970 has very similar performance as the Snapdragon 835. Qualcomm flew us to Maui, Hawaii for this year's Snapdragon Summit to take a closer look at their latest mobile and PC chipsets. A Qualcomm Reference Device (QRD) was provided for us to run a whole suite of benchmarks to demonstrate the performance of the chipset. Qualcomm has announced the new Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 and Snapdragon 4 Gen 5 processors.
