Old guy Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Mali gpu has different versions.deto said GPU's not particular model..
rkt.india Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 S6 has MaliT760MP8, honor 7 Malit628MP4 which is an older version.
rkt.india Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Heating is mainly a chipset issue. Qualcomm snapdragon 615 and 810 are heaters that's why MS employed liquid cooling in their new phones and Samsung didn't use in their S6 phones.
Detonator Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) samsung phones have that gpu no ? and its less hot than iphone during game play ..Iphone's has an even worser one, powervr. I remember posting here, iphone 6 gets hot even while using whatsapp/facebook All phones gets hot, but phones like s6 and note 4 quickly gets hot on prolonged usage. Esp, when a lot of apps are installed. The case is not the same in korean note 4. It's takes much longer to get hot even while playing games like MKX or real racing.

Detonator Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Heating is mainly a chipset issue. Qualcomm snapdragon 615 and 810 are heaters that's why MS employed liquid cooling in their new phones and Samsung didn't use in their S6 phones. Have to agree qualcomm messed up things with 810, which was exposed by nexus 6. But S6 also has way more heating issues from what I have seen. Samsung decided to go with exynos becoz, it's developed by them. Also the battery just drains like speedometer while playing games. In s6 I opened the MKX game, the battery drained from 76% to 68% before I start an actual match.
rkt.india Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Samsung used both Exynos and Snapdragon in previous flagships. Aaccording to GSM arena "Exynos in S6 is the first mobile chipset to be built on a 14nm fabrication process (Snapdragon 810 is on 20nm), which should reduce power usage. That in turn reduces the dreaded thermal throttling that was a major issue in the Exynos vs. Snapdragon debate recently."
Detonator Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 heats up mainly in gaming.btw, most phones heat up during heavy usage. Their Kirin chipset isn't bad, only issue is that Mali gpu isn't made for gamingHmmm.. I don't know about Kirin, so googled and found that it's based on ARM Cortex chipsets. Lets see

rkt.india Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Companies say all honey and sugar while selling their phones. I dont think heating can be resolved completely and when using a QHD display, it is bound to heat up and with a small battery pack in S6, it is not surprising that it drains quickly during gaming. My Lumia 920 heats up like anything. Lets see how liquid cooling works in new Lumias. That might be the trend for coming generations of phones to limit heating issues. Lenovo has packed 5000 MAH battery in their new phone Vibe P1. Other companies must look to do the same too. Note is as big as P1 but only has 3200 MAH battery. Detonator 1
Detonator Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) Korean NOte 4 also uses Mali 420No they use Adreno 420 for common variants. They used mali for the expensive cat 9 LTE or s lte. Mali is only for Asia and south america I guess. Also they have this cool leather case in the rear and aluminium edges. Edited October 8, 2015 by Detonator rkt.india 1
rkt.india Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 most midrange phones like Galaxy A series have been using Snapdragon 615 which has heating issues. Vibe P1 is also housed with the same chipset. Detonator 1
Detonator Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 most midrange phones like Galaxy A series have been using Snapdragon 615 which has heating issues. Vibe P1 is also housed with the same chipset.the A series is basically meant for selling unsold old chipsets they have ordered.
rkt.india Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 the A series is basically meant for selling unsold old chipsets they have ordered. but the A series is their new design language, differs from their old plastic S series with metal build. They certainly have not treated them like after thoughts.
Detonator Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) but the A series is their new design language, differs from their old plastic S series with metal build. They certainly have not treated them like after thoughts.the metal trims are their biggest selling point. imo, they should have adopted metal design for s series long back. I would rather buy an outdated z1 which is available for 16k, rather than buying a8 with nerfed chipsets Edited October 8, 2015 by Detonator rkt.india 1

rkt.india Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Honor 7 finger print sensor can be used for more than just unlocking.
Old guy Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 i have used s6 of cousin and yes battery is mediocre and it did heat but only while charging and updating otherwise did not feel much heat at all.feeling heat is non issue as it means phone is getting cooler and unlike g3 from lg which had to shut down some features and many sony phones who shut down cameras its non issue in samsung phones and iphones .btw i prefer design language of s series now as it looks different from metal and on top of that you get amazing wireless charging which currently is not possible on metal phones. rkt.india 1
Detonator Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) Sony releases Z5 compact with a 720p display, with sd810 and adreno 430. That's like a mini cooper with ferrari engine. Edited October 8, 2015 by Detonator
