CPU model

The most popular nowadays are chips from Qualcomm and MediaTek, CPUs from Unisoc are slightly less common. Qualcomm has several processors of each series, namely Snapdragon 778G, Snapdragon 7 Gen 1, Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2, Snapdragon 7s Gen 2, Snapdragon 7 Gen 3, Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3, Snapdragon 865, Snapdragon 870, Snapdragon 888, Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, Snapdragon 8s Gen 3. And Mediatek has a low cost series MediaTek Helio P and a line of advanced chipsets MediaTek Dimensity (Dimensity 1000, Dimensity 7000, Dimensity 8000, Dimensity 9000).

Knowing the name of the CPU model installed in the smartphone, you can find detailed data on a particula...r CPU and evaluate its level and general capabilities. This is especially true in light of the fact that these capabilities depend not only on the number of cores and clock speed, but also on the specific nuances of the design.

CPU frequency

The clock frequency of the CPU that the device is equipped with. For multi-core processors, which are standard in modern smartphones, the frequency of each individual core is implied; and if the processor has cores with different frequencies (see "Number of cores") — usually, the maximum indicator is given.

In general, high performance smartphones have high frequency of the processor. However, note that this parameter itself is not directly related to the capabilities of the CPU: many other features of the chip affect the actual performance, and often a low cost solution with a higher clock speed turns out to be less performant than an expensive one, and at the same time, presumably, more "slow" processor. In addition, the overall performance of the system directly depends on a whole set of other factors — primarily the amount of RAM. Therefore, when evaluating a smartphone, it is worth focus not so much on the frequency of the processor, but on the general specs of the system and visual indicators like the results in tests (see below).

Processor rating AnTuTu

End-to-end processor rating (regardless of chipset manufacturer) for Android smartphones. It is based on a set of maximum performance indicators of the processor itself, the memory bus, the graphics core, etc. Processor ratings can be useful to enable comparison and easy selection of similar models.

Liquid cooling

The water cooling system of the smartphone is designed to increase the efficiency of heat dissipation. Good cooling allows the smartphone to perform properly at peak loads, without freezes or lags. The use of a liquid radiator makes it possible to improve cooling by an average of 4-6 °C compared to passive coolers. Water cooling is used in high-performance smartphones equipped with a performant CPU and GPU and multiple artificial intelligence co-processors.

Water cooling of a smartphone can have various design implementations. The concept of a radiator filled with refrigerant has gained the greatest popularity. In such a cooler, the liquid evaporates as it heats up and condenses in a separate heat exchanger, after which the liquid again enters the cooling radiator. Of course, if you want to increase cooling efficiency, that will increase the dimensions of the smartphone.

Test results

The test results are specified either by a younger model in a line or a particular model, made for a better understanding performance of phone models if you compare phones against these parameters. For example, the 128 GB model has test results, and the 256 GB model has no information on the network, and in both models you will see the same value that will give an understanding of the overall performance of the device. But if the editorial office has information for each model individually, then each model will have its test results filled out, and the model with bigger RAM will have bigger values.

AnTuTu Benchmark

The result shown by a device when undergoing a performance test (benchmark) in AnTuTu Benchmark.

AnTuTu Benchmark is a comprehensive test designed specifically for mobile devices, primarily smartphones and tablets. It evaluates the efficiency of the processor, memory, graphics, and input/output systems, providing a clear impression of the system's capabilities. The higher the performance, the more points are awarded. Smartphones that score over 900K points are considered high-performance according to the AnTuTu ranking.

Like any benchmark, this test does not provide absolute precision: the same device can show different results, usually with deviations within 5-7%. These deviations depend on various factors unrelated to the system itself, such as the device's load from third-party programs and the ambient temperature during testing. Therefore, significant differences between two models can only be noted when the gap in their scores exceeds this margin of error.

Geekbench

The result shown by a device when undergoing a performance test (benchmark) in Geekbench.

Geekbench is a specialized benchmark designed for processors. Since version 4.0, it also includes tests for graphics processors, and by the end of 2019, version 5 of the benchmark was released. Typically, the specifications for portable gadgets include data specifically for the CPU. During testing, Geekbench simulates workloads that occur during real-world tasks, evaluating both single-core performance and the efficiency of multi-core operations. This provides a solid overview of the processor's capabilities in everyday use. Additionally, Geekbench is cross-platform, allowing for comparisons between the CPUs of different devices (smartphones, tablets, laptops, PCs). In reference materials, only the multi-core test results for the processor are usually provided.

2K video recording

The resolution and maximum frame rate that the device's main camera can record video in Quad HD(also known as 2K or 1440p). Note that these settings are for normal-speed video, without slow motion (if any).

The standard includes several resolution options, but 2560x1440 is the usual one for this format. This can be either the maximum shooting resolution in general or one of the recording options in addition to more advanced standards (for example, UltraHD 4K). The frame rate, in turn, determines how smooth the video will look, how clearly fast-moving objects will be visible in it. For normal (not slow) shooting, this standard often uses a frame rate of 30 fps.

Main selfie lens

Resolution of the main lens of the front camera installed in the phone. For models with several lenses (see "Front camera" — "Number of lenses"), the main one is the one responsible for the main part of the shooting and does not have a pronounced specialization (auxiliary, ultra-wide-angle, etc.).

Initially, the front cameras were intended for video communication, but nowadays, for many users their only function is still taking a selfie. Therefore, although the resolution of such cameras is generally lower than that of the rear ones, however, among them there are also very solid indicators — 8 MP, 13 MP, and in specialized "selfie smartphones" — 16 MP, 20 MP, 24 MP, 32 MP and higher. Lower values — 5 MP, as well as 2 MP — are typical mainly for low cost and frankly outdated devices.

Keep in mind that the resolution of the sensor itself determines only the detail of the images and does not affect the overall quality of photos and videos; on the other hand, a higher number of megapixels often means a more advanced camera, with a number of technical features designed to provide high quality images. Therefore, on the one hand, it makes sense for lovers of high-quality selfies to look for...front modules with a higher resolution; on the other hand, cameras with the same resolution can differ significantly in the final quality of the photos and videos. So if the ability to take a selfie is crucial for you, you should look not only at the number of megapixels, but also at the actual examples of pictures from a particular camera (for example, in reviews).
