MTK MT6588 / MTK6589 vs Qualcomm’s MSM8225Q and MSM8625Q (Quick Post – Part 1)
Just 3 days ago Qualcomm released its new quad-core CPUs – the Snapdragon S4 MSM8225Q and MSM 8625Q.
It’s a bit strange that Qualcomm chose “MSM”, but choose it they did. Both of these CPUs are part of Qualcomm’s budget “Play” line of mobile CPUs.
MTK mt6588 / MTK6588 will be Cortex-A7, while Qualcomm is going with Cortex-A5. Both these decisions are based, in part, towards reducing power consumption.
That they both have chosen a less power hungry architecture, and are using 28nm process, should make strides towards giving us significantly longer battery life.
Keep in mind, many of us are relying on and using our smartphones for more and more tasks, and Android software is becoming more complex, so depending on your use, some of us may not notice a difference in battery life. But given the same usage, GizBeat would guess we’ll see at least a 20% increase.

by the way which is better one cortex a5 or a7……
Hello Ram, Cortex a7 is a poor man’s Cortex a15, having the exact same architecture and feature sets. Cortex a15 is Arm’s top Cortex architecture.
Cortex a7 supports Superscalar. The big tell is that per Mhz, the Cortex a7 is 20% faster than Cortex a5 (and Cortex a9 is 20% faster per Mhz than Cortex a7). Of course, this doesn’t take into account battery usage.
So which is ultimately better?
MTK6589
which better and why ? Snapdragon MSM8625Q or mtk6589
