And in that same post, we highlighted the fact that the 720G has a slightly higher clock speed when compared to the 730G. When the Snapdragon 720G was announced, we did a spec-based comparison where we concluded that the SD 720G would be providing equivalent performance to the SD 730G at a lower price. Snapdragon 720G vs Snapdragon 730GĪs much as the ‘+10’ in the nomenclature may suggest, the Snapdragon 720G achieves equivalent, or even better performance in some cases when compared to the Snapdragon 730G which was as surprising to us as it is to you. Also, the Snapdragon 720G is more power efficient when compared to the Helio G90T which means you’ll get better battery life along with better thermals. What does this imply? In real-world usage, the Snapdragon 720G will perform slightly better than the G90T, although the difference isn’t enough to see an actual variation in terms of speed. Snapdragon 720G vs Helio G90T (Geekbench) This explains the fact that the G90T touting Redmi Note 8 Pro and Realme 6 can play PUBG on the highest setting whereas the 720G, or for that matter, even the 730G cannot. Also, if you observe the split-up on AnTuTu, you can see that the G90T actually scores higher in terms of the GPU score whereas the 720G is ahead in terms of CPU points. When we benchmarked the two phones on Geekbench 5 as well as AnTuTu, the scores are clearly higher on the Snapdragon 720G, albeit not by a very high margin. This, however, is true only to a small extent. The frame rate is capped at 40fps which naturally makes the general consumer believe that the G90T is more powerful than the 720G. However, the elder sibling, the Realme 6 Pro has the new Snapdragon 720G chipset which CANNOT play PUBG on the highest setting. The newly launched Realme 6 also has the same capability. The biggest highlight of the SoC was the fact that it could run PUBG on the smoothest graphics setting resulting in a 60fps frame rate. The Redmi Note 8 Pro from just a few months ago came with the Helio G90T chipset which was indeed mighty powerful. Let’s first address the slightly more controversial comparison between Helio G90T vs Snapdragon 720G. Let’s delve in a little deeper and see how we arrived at this conclusion. The Snapdragon 730G is relatively old now and the 720G also has a slightly faster CPU which gives us this surprising result. Recently, Qualcomm announced the Snapdragon 720G specifically catered towards the Indian market and while we initially considered this chip to slot right between the Snapdragon 730G and Snapdragon 712, going by the moniker, it turns out, the Snapdragon 720G actually performs even better than the 730G in some scenarios. The MediaTek Helio G90T on the Redmi Note 8 Pro ( review) and now on the Realme 6 ( review) is also popular for the same reason – supreme gaming performance on a budget. This is due to the fact that apart from being a solid performer, the suffix “G” emphasizes the gaming capabilities which is a huge attraction to the youth given the rise of games like PUBG in the country. With the mid-range smartphone segment being competitive as ever, brands are fighting to provide the best possible chipsets for the price and the Snapdragon 730G was a favorite in this segment. Especially, in a spec-driven market like India, the SoC plays a major role in influencing one’s decision of buying a certain phone. While buying a new smartphone, the performance it provides is an important factor for a lot of consumers.
