Snapdragon 480 vs MediaTek Dimensity 800U, the Dimensity 800U is built for mid-range smartphones while the Snapdragon 480 is built for entry-level 5G devices. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 480 launched recently while MTK Dimensity 800U was revealed back in August last year. Let’s see how the newly launched Qualcomm 5G chipset will compete against MediaTek’s Dimensity 800U chipset.
Key Differences
- MediaTek Dimensity 800U has higher clock speeds compared to Qualcomm Snapdragon 480
- SD 480 with Adreno 619 has a slightly better GPU than Mali G57 MC3 on MTK Dimensity 800U.
- Snapdragon 480 has Wi-Fi 6 support while Dimensity 800U doesn’t have Wi-Fi 6 support.
- MediaTek Dimensity 800U has video capture support of 4k@30fps while Dimensity 800U can shoot 1080p@60fps at max.
- MediaTek Dimensity 800U has better power efficiency because it is based on 7nm fabrication.
- Qualcomm SD 480 has better downlink and uplink speed compared to MTK Dimensity 800U.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 480 vs MediaTek Dimensity 800U
Conclusion
MediaTek Dimensity 800U with higher clock speeds provides better performance compared to Snapdragon 480. The GPU performance of Adreno 619 is better compared to Mali G57 MC3 GPU on MTK Dimensity 800U. As there is no smartphone in the market powered by snapdragon 480 so we don’t have the benchmark scores to compare with the benchmark scores of MediaTek Dimensity 800U.
