What does all these Proccessor types mean when buying a cell phone

Well dear readers,


    Its the battle of the smartphone processors. Today i am gona spill the beans and the maybe spread them around a bit further. Maybe even plant some. Well that besides the point. In todays market there is a lot of mambo jumbo about different type of processors for cell phones. I am gona explain it today like i would explain to a 12 years old.


First off we have our Qualcomm Snapdragon



Well this processor is snappy. If you know what i mean. Its like a dragon that is snappy. Fast dragon. Snapdragons are the Rolls Royce of this worlds. Powerful, Elegant, Resourceful and luxurious. They are the best in terms of Battery consumption, Qualcomm is the top most brand as in innovation and gets there before anyone else does.Performance wise they perform really well. In multi-tasking,gaming,handling heavy and intensive tasks they are very good. Snapdragon Processors generally deliver less heat compared to Mediatek and Intel Atom(Except the Snapdragon 810 Chipset-that faced many heating issues.) Coming to graphics, they manufacture their own graphics called Adreno Graphics and incorporate into their chips. So here the performance of cpu and gpu are matched.

Rating = *****


Secondly we have Mediatek Processors



Well mediatek is like the corolla of the automotive industry. Dime a dozen. It is a Taiwanese company. It uses more cores in it's processors(like octa core,hexa core,deca core).The mediatek chipsets are known to be more power draining and results in less battery life.Now they are optimizing their processors to be more power efficient but still lags behind their competetion in terms of battery life.

Performance wise their processors are very good.Due the availability of extra cores,mediatek processors can handle intensive and heavy tasks and they are very good at multi-tasking.But we can see all this practically if we have sufficient Ram.Yes more cores demand more Ram to give best performance.

Now coming to the heating problem. All the processors deliver heat while performing tasks. Mediatek processors deliver more heat(more cores=more heat) than the others.

Mediateck uses Mali as the GPU which is a third party vendor and therefore not optimized in an ideal fashion. Personally playing games on mediatek is not a very good experience

Thirdly we have Intel Atom Processors


Every one is familiar with Intel processors because they are dominant in the PC market. Intel Atom processors are the initiative taken by the company to enter into mobile segment.Intel processors are best in PC's but when it comes to mobile they have faced one problem.

Battery Life:

Yes, the problem they faced is Battery life. Intel company has experience in manufacturing processors for PC's which consume power in watts(say 40 watts and above) but when it comes to mobile platform where the processors should run on power less than 5 watts, they had a problem in optimizing their processors to work on low power.Performance wise, i think i don't need to tell you how Intel Processors do. They are very good both at PC's and on Mobile.

Intel Atom Processors also deliver more heat when running heavy and CPU intensive tasks or while using for long duration.Let us see how their core M-Processors perform.
Intel, till now used third party graphic vendors like Power VGR and Mali graphics  in their CPU's. Intel also have their own graphics called Intel Iris Graphics which they introduced in their 4th generation core i-series processors for PC's. I am not sure but i have read somewhere that core M-Processors have Intel Graphics built in. Let us see them in 2016.

Warning: A More Deadly Mutant strain of Corona virus is spreading

According to scientists a new strain of mutated corona virus is in the air. It allows the virus to become more deadly and infect more cells.  The mutation, named D614G, increased the number of “spikes” on the coronavirus - which is the part that gives it its distinctive shape. Those spikes are what allow the virus to bind to and infect cells These are some precautions to take:                       STAY HOME. SAVE LIVES. Help stop coronavirus 1 STAY home as much as you can 2 KEEP a safe distance 3 WASH hands o

Exploring Simulation Theory: Are We Living in a Computer-Generated Reality?

Reality has always been a subject of philosophical and scientific inquiry, with countless questions arising about its nature and existence. One intriguing and somewhat controversial concept that has gained popularity in recent years is Simulation Theory. This theory proposes that our reality is not what it seems, suggesting that we might actually be living in a computer-generated simulation. In this blog post, we'll dive into the fascinating world of Simulation Theory, examining its origins, key proponents, and the arguments both for and against it. The Origins of Simulation Theory Simulation Theory, while a contemporary idea, has roots in ancient philosophical ponderings about the nature of reality. Plato, for instance, mused about the existence of a "shadow world" where the true reality of objects could be found, beyond the realm of our senses. However, the modern concept of Simulation Theory owes much of its popularity to philosopher Nick Bostrom. In 2003, Bostrom publ

5 Best Portable Speakers to Buy

Dear Readers,      Well you know that one cool little gadget that all of us want? Yeah im talkin about the Protable Speaker system. We have reviewed some of them and they are mind blowing. No. 5 - Philips BR-1X Philips has a come out with this fun to play speaker link system and its rocking two drivers and one woofer. Total system wattage 10watts. No. 4 - BOSE SOUND LINK Mini II Bose is the m ost famous sound system with the best low ends and a compact form factor. They lack some loudness but thats alright. No. 3 - JBL CHARGE JBL Charge 2 gives us a lot of features like charging the your gatdgets with the battery that is with in this bohemoth and converting all that juice in to loud and elegent sound. No. 2 - UE BOOM No.1 - UE MEGABOOM
