Mình vừa mượn được OPPO R11 - chiếc máy mà khả năng cao là sẽ không được bán tại Việt Nam nhưng lại là chiếc máy đầu tiên trang bị con chip Snapdragon 660. Đây là con chip kế thừa Snapdragon 653 mà OPPO dùng trên model F3 Plus đã bán tại Việt Nam trước đó. Tuy nhiên nó lại mạnh hơn khá nhiều với hiệu năng xử lý tăng khoảng 20% và sức mạnh đồ họa tăng khoảng 30%.
Trong các bài test trước đây, bản thân con chip Snapdragon 653 vốn đã cho hiệu năng rất ấn tượng, 660 lại mạnh hơn nữa? Liệu sức mạnh thực tế của con chip này sẽ như thế nào?
Mình đã thực hiện trước một số phép benchmark bằng Geekbench, Antutu, 3D Mark, PC Mark để tham khảo trước và sẽ sớm gởi đến các bạn một bài speedtest cụ thể hơn về hiệu năng giữa hai con chip này.
Điểm Antutu của R1 dùng Snapdragon 660 là khá ẩn tượng, nó thậm chí cao hơn gần 30k điểm so với Snapdragon 653, điểm 3D cũng nhỉn hơn hẳn.
Ngoài ra, trên SnapDragon 660 thì hiệu năng CPU và GPU chỉ là một phần, quan trọng là Qualcomm đã mang hàng loạt những tính năng chỉ xuất hiện trên thế hệ chip series 8 cao cấp xuống series 6, hỗ trợ đầy đủ camera kép, trí tuệ nhân tạo hay moderm LTE X12...

A 32-bit operating system can only support up to 4GB of RAM. 64-bit allows more than 4GB, giving increased performance. It also allows you to run 64-bit apps.
With integrated graphics you don’t need to buy a separate graphics card.
Small semiconductors provide better performance and reduced power consumption. Chipsets with a higher number of transistors, semiconductor components of electronic devices, offer more computational power. A small form factor allows more transistors to fit on a chip, therefore increasing its performance.
The graphics processing unit [GPU] has a higher clock speed.
DirectX is used in games, with newer versions supporting better graphics.
The fifth-generation wireless technology delivers higher speeds and lower latency than the previous, fourth-generation tech.

When the GPU is running below its limitations, it can boost to a higher clock speed in order to give increased performance.
OpenGL ES is used for games on mobile devices such as smartphones. Newer versions support better graphics.
Some apps use OpenCL to apply the power of the graphics processing unit [GPU] for non-graphical computing. Newer versions introduce more functionality and better performance.
Performance
The CPU speed indicates how many processing cycles per second can be executed by a CPU, considering all of its cores [processing units]. It is calculated by adding the clock rates of each core or, in the case of multi-core processors employing different microarchitectures, of each group of cores.
More threads result in faster performance and better multitasking.
Using big.LITTLE technology, a chip can switch between two sets of processor cores to maximize performance and battery life. For example, when playing a game the more powerful cores will be used to increase performance, whereas checking email will use the less powerful cores to maximize battery life.
Heterogeneous Multi-Processing [HMP] is a more advanced version of big.LITTLE technology. In this setup, a processor can utilize all cores at the same time, or just a single core for low-intensity tasks. This can provide powerful performance or increased battery life respectively.
