Which one is better, the third generation Snapdragon 8s or the third generation Snapdragon 8?

As a world-renowned mobile phone chip manufacturer, Qualcomm's Snapdragon series has always been the main chip for most domestic mobile phones. The most powerful one currently is the third-generation Snapdragon 8 chip launched in October last year.However, Qualcomm recently launched the new third-generation Snapdragon 8s, so which one is better, the third-generation Snapdragon 8s or the third-generation Snapdragon 8?

Which one is better, the third generation Snapdragon 8s or the third generation Snapdragon 8?

The third generation Snapdragon 8s uses the same architecture as the third generation Snapdragon 8, but the core frequency is lower, so the third generation Snapdragon 8s is not as good as the third generation Snapdragon 8.

The code name of Qualcomm Snapdragon 8S Gen3 is SM8635. This CPU is not an upgraded version of Snapdragon 8 Gen3, but a "downclocked version" of Snapdragon 8 Gen3.Specifically, Snapdragon 8 S Gen3 is built on TSMC’s 4nm process. The CPU part includes 1*3.01GHz X4+4*2.61GHz A720+3*1.84GHz A520, and the GPU uses Adreno 735.For comparison, Snapdragon 8 Gen3 consists of 1*3.3GHz X4+3*3.15GHz A720+2*2.96GHz A720+2*2.27GHz A520.

By comparing the specifications of the two CPUs, it can be seen that the CPU frequency of Snapdragon 8S gen3 has been reduced, with one less A720 performance core and one more A520 energy efficiency core.The performance of this new Snapdragon 8S Gen3 is between Snapdragon 8 Gne2 and Snapdragon 8 Gen3, and its power consumption control will be better than Snapdragon 8 Gen3.

Although the name of the third-generation Snapdragon 8s seems to be stronger, after all, it has an S, but in fact the third-generation Snapdragon 8s is a down-clocked version of the third-generation Snapdragon 8, and its performance is much worse, butIt is stronger than the second generation Snapdragon 8, the previous generation flagship chip.
