This such a promising result for a MediaTek chip. For a long-time, Snapdragon has always been the go-to for the smartphone manufacturers in affordable market’s top-of-the-line smartphones. And Mediatek’s effort to improve its offerings means cheaper but capable devices in the future to come. That’s Realme leading the way. Realme devices mostly rely on MediaTek SoCs, hence the affordable handsets.
