    Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 v/s 855: What has improved?
  • Recently, Qualcomm has launched its latest flagship Snapdragon 865 chipset as a successor to the last year's Snapdragon 855 mobile platform.

    The new processor has achieved promising scores on the benchmarking platform Geekbench, recording a 23% increase over the single-core and multi-core scores of the Snapdragon 855.

    Here, we take a look at the improvements the 865 SoC brings over its predecessor.

  • Parameter #1

    Snapdragon 865 v/s 855: Performance

  • The Snapdragon 865 is based on the same octa-core, tri-cluster 7nm architecture we saw on Snapdragon 855.

    The eight cores on the new chip include a primary 2.84GHz Kryo 585 core (Cortex A77-based), three performance-oriented 2.42GHz Kryo 585 cores, and four 1.8GHz efficiency cores based on Cortex A55 architecture.

    As per Qualcomm, the Snapdragon 865 will offer 25% faster CPU performance than the 855.

  • Parameter #2

    GPU and memory

    GPU and memory
  • The Snapdragon 865 comes with an Adreno 650 GPU which is touted to offer a 20% performance boost over the Adreno 640 which powered the Snapdragon 855.

    The new GPU will support 10-bit HDR gaming, 8K video playback, and is the first-ever mobile GPU that'll receive driver updates via the Play Store.

    As for memory, the Snapdragon 865 will support upto 16GB of RAM.

  • Information

    AI performance

  • While both the Snapdragon 865 and 855 are AI-powered, the former is said to be twice more powerful, thanks to a new 5th-generation AI engine. It supports 15 trillion operations per second to speed up AI-related tasks such as on-device, real-time translation and image processing.

  • Parameter #4

    Camera and imaging performance

  • The Snapdragon 865 SoC comes with Spectra 480 Image Signal Processor (ISP) that can process 2 Gigapixels per second i.e. 200MP still photos. The ISP also supports 8K video recording with Dolby Vision support as well as 4K video recording at a higher 120fps.

    In comparison, the Snapdragon 855 packs a Spectra 380 ISP which supports upto 192MP still images.

  • Parameter #5

    Connectivity features

    Connectivity features
  • The Snapdragon 865 SoC doesn't come with an integrated 5G modem but it is compatible only with the Snapdragon X55 5G modem. This means you won't get an 865-powered phone with a 4G modem. The X55 5G modem supports both sub-6 and mmWave standards and Dynamic Spectrum Sharing (DSS).

    The new chip also supports Wi-Fi 6 (802.11a/x) and Bluetooth 5.1 standards.

  • Information

    Biometric security

  • The Snapdragon 865 supports 3D Sonic Max biometric technology that can simultaneously recognize two fingers. The sensor is 17% bigger with a recognition area of 600 square millimeters. The Snapdragon 855 also supports an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner but for a single finger.
