MediaTek MT8389 is a widely popular recent call tablet solution , equipped with 7 china tablet pc.9 inch Narrow this platform has several models . Born earlier Allwinner A31s already widely used products in the same size is easily visible. The reason why today do want to take these two CPU Fan contrast , mainly because both have a lot of similarities. Remove MediaTek platform native support communication functions ( full blog quad-core communication module can also be achieved with a phone function ) , the two processors in some of the key parameters of relatively close , are not high clocked quad-core Cortex A7 architecture , GPU PowerVR SGX544 graphics core are series of related products often are 1GB memory configuration . So in terms of performance , emerging MT8389 popular for a long time with the full blog A31s actually stack up , it is worth to explore .
The products are used for comparison 7.9 -inch 1024 * 768 pixel screen , the memory to 1GB. In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding , the specific model is not listed. First look at the next two CPU parameter comparison:
Simple comparison of view , MT8389 's some more advanced process technology , frequency is also higher than 0.2GHz, memory configuration is similar to choose different types of memory will be some impact on power consumption . Worthy of note is that although the two are SGX544 GPU series , but the former is a single nuclear power plant pipeline , which is a dual- core eight pipes. Existing data show that the former is perhaps slightly higher GPU frequency , as well as the actual results to be compared.
Run sub comparison:
First, look at the difference between running points , which is the difference between the performance of different platforms directly reflects the easiest way , but only a prel! iminary reference , because it is not absolute objectivity run points , many chip makers are divided to run specifically for the corresponding optimization, practical experience and ran Moreover, there is no direct relationship between high and low points .
The first is the security Bunny score contrast , the left is MT8389 product test results , the right is A31s 's ( hereinafter the same ) . If the RAM performance can reference it, behind the CPU integer floating point scores with significant differences , this should not be the CPU's real strength, but the selected product under the new firmware to run sub- optimized results , which makes security Rabbit rabbit contrast thus lose their reference value. A31s other reference solution results in 11,000 to 12,000 out of the general level , it should be closer to the true performance .
Another CPU test software CF-Bench results clearly more tricky some higher frequency MT8389 in native score , Java scores and comp! osite score to be more dominant aspect .
Look GPU graphics performance , the same Nenamark 2.4 test , A31s scored significantly much higher , reflecting the dual-core GPU with a single -core differences.
In the latest version of the famous GLBenchmark tests, the scores are also A31s more dominant , graphics performance, dual-core GPU, using MP2 full blog quad-core advantage.
Previously used Allwinner A31 tablet has a feature that is stored inside comes to write something quickly , often to achieve close to 20MB / s speeds. The A31s may shrink due to memory configurations , the corresponding write speed was significantly slowed down, basically stable at 10MB / s the following ( read about 15MB / s). MediaTek MT8389 speed is commendable , write sustainable maintained at 20MB / s or more levels ( read close to 30MB / s). There are many fine even copy the folder , MT8389 also significantly faster than the A31s . Although many tablet will come with TF card use, but comes with the memory read and write speed actually makes sense , ! in addition to copies of the game faster than data packets , it is clear that to some extent will affect the speed of the software is running , because such a large Games like the program will frequently read and write its own storage space.
Fluency and speed :
Used in comparing the two products are all relatively new running Android 4.2.2 system , a simple comparison of the desktop slide frame rate, almost no significant difference between the two , as related to around 60Hz screen refresh rate is very close . But the actual characteristics of the two are not the same fluency , A31s interface switching response has been very fast, but the smoothness of the transition animation without MT8389 done better , I think people feel more comfortable latter . Overall, the two programs do not deal with how much pressure XGA resolution , fluency is basically quite satisfactory. Incidentally , both of which , though often both with 1GB of memory, but the MT8389 to be more ! generous space available some can exceed 600MB, and A31s products are often only about 500MB .
To tell you the speed of loading software and software running speed, the two products are installed on the same batch of relatively large software ( mostly casual games , tens of megabytes to hundreds of megabytes of APK installation file ) . Careful comparison of findings , MT8389 product installation and load most programs are slightly faster ( some slower ) , the uninstaller is A31s slightly faster, but the difference is relatively minor overall . Software running on the effect, the same procedure , both controlled reaction rate is basically the same , there will be no significant difference. Multi- task switching , MT8389 slightly faster switching speed a little bit.
Stability:
Stability requires prolonged use can feel it, the two down for three days , both personal feeling relatively stable, but slightly better than , but still MT8389 . Although this is a new program soon after , but compared to the long- Allwinner optimized q! uad-core , does not strive . Instead A31s contrast with the opportunity to once the phenomenon of death , and once connected to a computer to transfer files themselves suddenly disconnected .
Switch time :
Both programs support the Quick Start function , MT8389 products in this mode, the boot just five seconds , A31s model is 7 seconds . Non- quick start mode, the former boot 31 seconds , the latter 26 seconds . Shutdown latency , MT8389 slightly slower second. Considering switch time in the same program there will be differences in the different models . Therefore, this comparison will look to give up, not much difference between the two .
Video decoding performance:
Started in the field of mobile phone MediaTek video decoding is not high degree of attention early , before the MT8389 supports a variety of programs are only to 720P HD , and can be hard decoding format is very limited. MT8389 program has improved in this regard , they can already hard! solution 1080P Full HD , but still not very widely supported format , such as WMV, RMVB formats are not hard solutions , in addition to not support DTS, FLAC tracks, but also for the lack of development video player software . In this regard, the MediaTek MT8389 can be said that defeat to Allwinner A31s, the latter 4K decoding, floating playback, dynamic preview and players more options are MediaTek unmatched , which is originated in MP4 era tablet solution providers the obvious advantage. Incidentally , A31s video decoding specifications than the A31 weakened, mainly H.264 High Profile 1080 60fps down to 30fps, but still a lot stronger than MediaTek . Of course , MT8389 video performance is not really bad, just like with impunity download videos to watch, well less than the full blog program .
Browser performance:
Specifically speaking , MT8389 product browsing the web a lot better than the A31s . First, open the web speed is faster , followed by smooth drag and zoom smoothing effect should be stronger than the A31s . Order to me! asure the frame rate , then , MT8389 models web browsing can still reach 60 results, Allwinner in 50 or so, drag the page will feel a slight jitter. Both browsers have no problem with the basic stability are never encountered before exiting or stuck situation, but A31s models in the open multiple web pages, prone to the phenomenon of load can not be completed , you need to refresh to open.
Online video side , MT8389 does not have a browser mode option , and A31s is to provide optional, default is HTML5 mode. It does not modify any settings in fluency A31s fared better. Also watch Youku video , A31s models optional clarity , MT8389 is not the option, the default resolution is full blog more. Also watch Tencent video , both clarity and fluency is no different. Watch Tudou fluency are also good, but still A31s models optional clarity, and MT8389 not. Overall , I feel full blog online video programs more effective than MediaTek better but repeatedly encountered delays loa! ded situation , MT8389 models are not aware of this problem, using up more than another.
Software compatibility and operating results :
The same framework of the two programs in compatibility hardly find any difference , operating results are also nearly tied . About speed, has been mentioned earlier , there are subtle differences, but the machine is not put together two contrasting words , basically difficult to find.
Game Performance:
As already mentioned , these two platforms GPU models, but the difference between GPU auditors . From the running points can already be seen in the difference in performance between the two do have , A31s more robust performance than MT8389 few . Let's look at the effect of running the actual game to the most directly reflect the performance of the game screen frame rate (FPS) do weigh basis .
Can be seen , except for some very large 3D casual game play performance close to both , the large-scale 3D games are A31s higher frame rate models , the corresponding fluency better. Of cour! se, from the results, generally in the performance of more than 30 are already known fluent. As for the game compatibility, almost no difference between the two , and tested many games , only one "Al Long Jianying " appeared not be installed on A31s models issue. In addition, the loading large game , MT8389 waiting delay is shorter. In effect performance, the performance of both is almost the same , but the above test, the "real racing 3" in A31s not above rearview mirror effects , MT8389 products but can be displayed, but the fluency of the game relatively large difference .
The products are used for comparison 7.9 -inch 1024 * 768 pixel screen , the memory to 1GB. In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding , the specific model is not listed. First look at the next two CPU parameter comparison:
