Mediatek MT6752 vs Snapdragon 615

In real world testing how does the 64bit Mediatek MT6752 compare vs the 64bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 processor? Find out in this 64bit processor battle.

At the time of writing on of the biggest buzz words for the mobile phone market is “64-bit CPU”. The term has been thrown around like a magic word and is being used by marketing teams to promote new devices. 64bit processors are a big deal but not only for the fact that they are 64bit chips, but also the additional features and functions they bring to hand-held devices.

On the market today there are plenty of 64bit chips, but the hottest and most talked about are the Mediatek MT6752 and Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 615. Both chips are used in many mid to high-end smartphones, but of the two which is the better SoC?

For this article we have taken 2 popular Chinese phones, each of which boast a 64bit chipset. For the Qualcomm side we have the Oppo R5 and for Mediatek the iOcean MT6752 Rock. For this comparison we have subjected both phones to popular benchmark tests to see which processor gives the best performance. Before we get to the comparison and results though, lets take a look at the specifications and features of both processor.

Mediatek MT6752 vs Snapdragon 615 specifications.

The MT6752 deploys 8 x 1.7GHz ARM Cortex-53 CPUs and Mali-T760 GPU – the next level 64-bit mobile computing and global 4G LTE. Camera support is up to 16 mega-pixels with video recording at 1080p @ 60fps.

In comparison the Snapdragon 615 represents the first 64-bit Cortex-A53 Octa-core CPUs in the industry. The chip features 4 x 1.7GHz cores and 4 x 1GHz. An Adreno 405 GPU support max screen resolution of 2560*1600 screen display and up to 21 mega-pixel cameras.

Both chip has it’s own benefits with the Mediatek looking to be a more performance orientated processor and the Snapdragon 615 more about media consumption.

Now we know more about each processor and it’s features let’s get on with the testing and see which of the two processors boasts the more impressive benchmarks.

Mediatek MT6752 vs Snapdragon 615: Vellamo

Vellamo began as a mobile web benchmarking tool and has expanded to include 2 primary chapters. The HTML5 Browser Chapter evaluates mobile web browser performance while the Metal Chapter measures the single core CPU subsystem performance of mobile processors. Vellamo is able to rate scrolling and zooming, 3D graphics, video performance and memory read/write and peak bandwidth performance and even more.

iOcean MT6752 on the left

From this mobile web test, the performance seems to be pretty close. It represents that through zooming, loading, 3D graphics and video stream media they will give customers a similar experience.

Mediatek MT6752 vs Snapdragon 615: Ludashi

The Android version of Ludashi is a performance test app designed for Android phones and tablets. From 8 performance tests, you easily test the performance of your mobile device and compare your phone or tablet with another.

iOcean MT6752 on the left

‌

From the overall result, the iOcean M6752 ‘s scores are way beyond that offered by the OPPO R5. It can be seen that the performance of iocean M6752’s single-core is better than OPPO R5’s with an overall result of the MT6752 powered iOcean reaching almost double that of the Snapdragon powered Oppo.

Mediatek MT6752 vs Snapdragon 615: Game Performance Test Results

Since both of the experimental phones have the 1080p display, their SOC would consume a similar battery power. We will test the differences of the SOC though some mainstream games in the market.

The iOcean M6752 carries a Mali-T760 GPU. The speed before entering the main screen of the game Need for Speed is normal, but during gaming the Mali GPU seems to loose out a little in terms of overall graphic crispness.

In regards of the compatibility, OPPO R5 carries an Adreno 405 GPU that performs better in general. The fluency and quality are both very good, but overall the actual gaming experience is no better on the Snapdragon 615 than it is on the MT6752 chipset.

In terms of other games, iOcean M6752 and OPPO R5 are generally the same. Both of their fluency and compatibility are acceptable. Overall, the 2 phones’ performances are both excellent.

NBA 2015 is a newly-released game and it requires a great hard-ware processor and graphic processor to run. The iOcean M6752 performs fluently with this game, with just the odd lag here and there. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 really disappoints us with this game though. The processor really struggles to keep up and the game often feels sluggish.

Mediatek MT6752 vs Snapdragon 615: Conclusion

Although on paper both processor offers great features and looks like it could handle anything you can throw at it, it is the MT6752 processor in the iOcean MT6752 which wins overall.

In general use for most applications both processors are good, but when the going gets tough the Mediatek 64bit processor really steps up and manages to handle huge loads much more competently and smoothly. In our opinion Oppo really made a huge mistake when going for a Snapdragon 615 over the Mediatek MT6752, not only is the MTK chipset more powerful but it also helps to keep the cost of the phone down, which might explain why iOcean are able to sell their phone for just over $200 internationally while the Oppo is closer to $500.

Do you have any hands on experience with these two chipset? What was your real life experience?

More iOcean MT6752 details can be had on the official iOcean Facebook.

Qualcomm lost the CPU battle against Mediatek since the introduction of the MTK6595. Ever since, Qualcomm has been playing catch up. Sd410 vs Mtk6732? Murder. Mtk6752 vs Sd615? Hmmm. Sd810 won’t stand a chance against mtk6795

  What Crack pipe have you been smoking Qualcomm will dominate mediatek in overall performance and cpu performance because mediatek doesn’t over clock there chips like Qualcomm does but if Qualcomm found a way to make the same chip without overclocking it then mediatek might have a chance

MTK really delivered this time vs Qualcomm… both low and mid-range processors of MTK win in general vs their “opponents” of Qualcomm. What is more interesting though, is that they are better even in graphics, where Qualcomm was always better.
I want to see the results on MT6795 vs SD 810 when they come out, although I’m thinking that this will be another MediaTek “victory”.
- Bruce Wayne
  May 5, 2015
  In high end devices MTK is still way off the mark, Qualcomm reigns in the high-end market. And most probably will continue doing so for the years to come.
  - TheEvilPenguinGamer .
    May 6, 2015
    Yeah, the snapdragon 810 is a real success…NOT. Mediatek wouldn’t dare release such a failure chip but Qualcomm would because they know manufacturers will still use it since many people buy phones simply because it has a Qualcomm chip.
    - Dylan Aarhus
      May 16, 2015
      The only reason that the 810 heats up so much is because Qualcomm over clocked the cpu which caused excessive heating if Qualcomm fixed the problem than mediatek would have a major competition
    - Bruce Wayne
      June 12, 2015
      Thats true but I didn’t point out the CPU NOOB!!! I said that about the GPU. Mali T760MP2 is Faster than Adreno 405.(but thats unfair considering Mali 760 is supposedly meant for the mid range segment whereas Adreno 405 is for the budget segment)
      But as we go up the chain. i.e. Mali T760 vs The older Adreno 330, Here even the older generation Adreno seems to be at par with the Mali GPU. And about the CPU’s, Whoever said S810 is a failure.. You must be dreaming. It has heating problems, which every high end phone with clocks above 1.8GHz has. plus the S810 chipset comes with Adreno 430 clocked between 600-700MHz on a 64-bit Dual Width Chipset which will generate heat n matter what.
      Yes, Qualcomm needs to work on that. If they are able to work Around that, Adreno 430 Will take the Reigns over Adreno330 in no time.
      And please don’t go blabbering about advanced apis offered in the other chips. It does not matter right now whether your chip supports OpenGL ES 3.0, Because devs haven’t started developing apps complying with that API except tools used for benchmarking. Also when comparing two devices, its unfair and literally impractical to compare two devices that run on totally different Hardware.
      Also, Qualcomm CPU’s come paired with the Adreno GPU unlike MTK or Intel, therefore device manufacturers who use the latter CPUs have the option to Choose from Quite a few GPU options.
      Pardon me for going off-topic but a fact is a fact. You can’t change it, but you can decide whether to believe it or not. So Long!! For another month!!! LOL!

When you compare two devices to see how they perform with games it would be helpful to post few videos to see how they handle it otherwise it’s just a subjective impression.
In just trying to understand why the Adreno 405 that on paper delivers about 60 GFlops has been outperformed by the MaliT-760 MP2 that manages to deliver 40 GFlops.That said,I believe Mediatek managed to make better mid-range SoCs than Qualcomm.

        Yes, but still that video doesn’t show the difference between the GPUs.
        The speed in loading depends from the CPU.
        You have to load a play a heavy game.
        BTW, the difference on daily usage seems pretty huge. Like I said mediatek did a better job than Qualcomm

        The Eastern Markets are a lot bigger thanks to China and India but Mediatek has had a lot of issues entering India (especially when it comes to Xiaomi). The Asian markets are pretty much split between Qualcomm and Mediatek, but the west is dominated by Qualcomm.

Games is not everything, what about the more standard geekbench and sunspider javascript?
Anyway, I really prefer a stable and polished ROM from Oppo on weaker SoC, then strong SoC and buggy ROM from all those small and cheap chinese manufacturers like iocean.
And more, GPS still works better on Qualcomm SoCs.
- Airyl
  February 9, 2015
  How about you stop rolling around in 2012? Oppo and iOcean use the same ROM. It’s called Color OS. Neither is more polished or buggy than the other. And GPS on MTK phones work fine these days. Take a look at the MTK6732 phones.

        If both are running KitKat (and Dalvik, not ART) – the article is still misleading as it doesn’t mention its testing which 64bit processor is best at processing 32bit code only.
        The article is a comparison of which processor is best at being backwards compatible?
        It could be very different results when both Qualcom and Mediatek are exposed to having to 64bit workloads, nobody knows – worse we’re not even told its something to consider
  - yalok

    Not all that glitters is gold. Iocean use a ROM that looks like coloros, but it is not ColorOS. I don’t see any iocean device here: http://bbs.coloros.com/forum.php?mod=phones&code=download

The iocean is running Android 5 in 64bit mode.

Comparing 64bit processor processing 64 bit code and a 64bit processor processing in 32bit compatibility mode is so flawed its not even worth the article

    Duh!! Google my dear!! There are a lot of MTK Devices running stock lollipop. either you are outdated. Or you’re simply skipping essential details. And about the two phones running on different roms. Anyhow it doesn’t make much of a difference when running benchmarks because these apps don’t totally support 64-bit on the mobile platform yet they run in 32-bit compatibility mode so the results are not on the basis of different bandwidth.

  It would be interesting to see the same benchmarks ran when processing 64bit workloads as designed for.
  The ZTE blade s6 is a 615 phone running Android L – Andi do you have opportunity to get hold of one and run the benchmarks in 64bit?

  Duh!! Google my dear!! There are a lot of MTK Devices running stock lollipop. either you are outdated. Or you’re simply skipping essential details. And about the two phones running on different roms. Anyhow it doesn’t make much of a difference when running benchmarks because these apps don’t totally support 64-bit on the mobile platform yet they run in 32-bit compatibility mode so the results are not on the basis of different bandwidth.

  Bro, there is a lot of mtk devices, but those are on a newest SoC than the MT6752 SoC…. I have an eMax, and we still waiting for 5.0/5.1 Lollipop. Maybe we will never get.

  It also depends on the manufacturer bro, I have one Lenovo A6000 Plus and one A7000 both got their Lollipop 5.0.2 update long time back

  My brother got one… The update will never be out I think… I will buy the eMax mini ! 😀

Would be better if you ran the Ice Storm Unlimited benchmark for a comparison on graphics.

does qualcomm snapdragon 615 64-bit processor running 32-bit android
kitkat.. heats? is that because of the processor? or because of the
32-bit OS? i have a phone running the same processor and it heatsup
alot.. normal temp is 40c and for small usage 45-50c during lite gaming
its 55c and heavy gaming 65-68c.. benchmarking/stress test = 70-77c
MAX… is it normal ?? will it be fixed if i install 64-bit android L??

All I can say is I trust Qualcomm & never had a problem with them. Mediatech might possibly have the modems for phone & data usage at once like the galaxy 3 I believe did. Another I can say about Qualcomm is this is what happens when you sleep on the job, get lazy *or like Samsung set their soc to cheat on benchmarks* but, who would of thought mediatech? & Qualcomm had to pull out the big gun for this one & still most…. Wow.

  whatever you said in your comment above, dude you’re a noob in the cellular market. There are much more experienced people out there actually working like shit trying to make our experience better. And btw Samsung no longer uses qualcomm, They’ve shifted to Broadcom Chipsets which are worse!! I own 2 Samsung Devices,1 Sony, 1 Motorola, Honor 4x, Lenovo A6000, Lenovo A7000 and a few other devices which are obsolete. and by far my Lenovo A7000 works far better even with custom skins(launchers) on it. So if u really think qualcomm has an edge in the low-mid range market, think again. lol high-end phones yeah I can assume that they are definitely faster but its the GPU that gets beaten badly, the CPU still can compete.

    I was half asleep when I posted that comment, but what I meant to say and that part should’ve been obvious is that I personally never had a problem with Qualcomm. Then I go on & make no sense, but I was basically saying that mediatech SOC’s “might” not have embedded modems like Qualcomm. But mediatech could give a better experience like the galaxy 3 did with voice & data,because of the external modem. I wasn’t saying anything negative. And the ” lazy ” comment was at Qualcomm, Mediatech wasn’t able to hold a candle to any Qualcomm soc’s a couple of gens ago but IMO Qualcomm let this get to their heads & slacked on the job. That’s why I believe mediatech was able to compete on even grounds. That’s my opinion, don’t be offended or get riled up over posts, get a grip Batman.

      LOL!! Get riled up over what? It doesn’t matter to me, You see I don’t represent any of these brands, I’m a critic and criticism is what I do best!! And yes I got your point man! Qualcomm is definitely taking it slow. Even PowerVR is way ahead in terms of developing new Tech.

        OK, that’s nice a critic & probably a reviewer to right? I galaxy 1 threw 4, I like the galaxy S & galaxy ². But the 3rd gen was over kill on the battery & on the gimmicky stuff “imo”. The 6, I’ll assume is better at handling battery & ui because of the excynos. But my opinions are based on previous Qualcomm based galaxies *USA* and those are my experiences, Chinese manufacturers are coming up and fast. With smartphones & smartwatch’s, so if expect the same will go for their chip makers & I think Samsung knows this. But as I said before, I don’t think that anyone will be able to stop this because of their fast cheap production. I’m not a critic, but I comment my experiences & I don’t down anyone else’s or try to look good riding on anyone. Maniacal defenseive “lol! Get riled up over what?” Still riled up…♠,j.k. I have 2 hours to sleep & then get up. Talk to you again, maybe.

I just hope it reaches the states, & that mediatech doesn’t raise prices on anemica, EF it I’m buying a Chinese phone with a flashed android ROM.

For about $200 and change, may I recommend the MT6595m instead? It wipes the floor with both these chips (at least in Android 4.4 — the jury is still out how much 64-bit Lollipop will help the MT6752). In fact, for most everyday tasks it’s even faster than my OnePlus One. Benchmarks:

As users, we should aware of the lack of GPL compatibility of mediatek SoC. That simply means, the chances of getting upcoming android versions officially or unofficially are nearly zero. performance wise i think mediatek is a bit better nowadays.

simple question:with these powerful chipsets, what is the phone autonomy in hours after a few months of use?
- Alexis Paques

  On the UMI eMax : Great ! 5 days of use, or 2/3 days of play. (gigantic battery)

I still prefer Qualcomm over Mediatek. But MediaTek are progressing much faster so I guess the guys at Qualcomm should be nervous.

mediatek have maxed out the specs in this list but i’ve worried about heating and consumption is so high like on this list..

  The UMI eMax got one M6752… It heats a lot…You are almost afraid to play games. -Remember the rule : +10°C means divide by 2 lifetime.-
