Dimensity 8100 vs Snapdragon 855
Performance score
By our estimate, Dimensity 8100 beats Snapdragon 855 by 21%.
The score is our own estimate from the specs (cores, threads, clocks, architecture generation), not a benchmark run. 100 = the fastest CPU in our database. A phone without a fan drops its clocks under long load, so in long tasks (hours of gaming, video) it will be slower than the number shows.
