The Nord 3 did very well with the Dimensity 9000, and it had better camera.
A Dimensity 9200+ would have been better, that's competitive to Snapdragon 8 gen 2.
So unless the Nord 4 is cheaper than Nord 3, I'm not impressed with how they balanced it.

I bought Nord 3 at launch and I'm not impressed with the battery life and how hot it gets, and I'm not even gaming

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

OK, but it's tested "above average"
https://www.gsmarena.com/oneplus_nord_3-review-2584p3.php

So for sure it isn't exactly bad.

But, this has better power efficiency compared to dimensity 9200+. Using dimensity would've meant lower battery life.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

OK, then you may prefer the Dimensity 8200 Ultra, this is still faster then Snapdragon 7+ gen3, and more power efficient than Dimensity 9200+, but uses Mali graphics instead of Immortalis, still good for gaming, but not as good as the 9200+, and it's cheaper too, which could make room for better camera. ;)

7+ gen 3 is superior to both. Dimensity 8300 ultra is superior to 8200 ultra and Dimensity 9200+ is superior to dimensity 8300 and lower.

You were probably thinking about 7+gen 2.

You can check the power curve here: https://www.socpk.com/cpucurve/

Rankings for gpu, CPU can be checked on the main site by here: https://www.socpk.com/

If we are talking about cheap. Dimensity 8300 ultra would've been cheaper. But, I guess oneplus wanted the snapdragon name to woo consumers.

The Dimensity 8200 ultra was slightly faster and more power efficient than Dimensity 9200+ in tests of the Xiaomi 13T against the 13T Pro. (except graphics)
They are comparable to Snapdragon 8 gen 2, except the 8200 Ultra doesn't have as strong GPU as the 9200+.
AFAIK Both are faster than Snapdragon 7+ gen 3.

The Dimensity 8300 Ultra is another league: https://beebom.com/snapdragon-7-gen-3-vs-dimensity-8300-benchmark/

You are confused. That article is talking about snapdragon 7 gen 3 on Nord CE 4. I'm talking about Nord 4 which runs on 7+gen3. Which is nearly twice as fast as regular 7 gen 3 which is a midrange Soc.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

OK, I looked at the link you provided, and the Dimensity 9200+ is rated faster than the Snapdragon 7+ gen 3 with a score of:

  1. box (Cyan) 199,1 vs 178,9 Mobile phone/tablet chip comprehensive performance ranking
  2. box (blue) 146,8 vs 146,2 (even) Mobile phone/tablet chip CPU performance ranking
  3. box (yellow) 321,8 vs 255 Mobile phone/tablet chip GPU performance ranking
  4. box (red) 120,8 vs 114,5 Mobile phone/tablet chip GPU performance ranking

So the Dimensity 9200+ is similar in CPU speed, and the 8200 Ultra is similar in CPU speed to 9200+ (slightly faster), according to tests between Xiaomi 13T (Dimensity 8200 Ultra) and Xiaomi 13T Pro (Dimensity 9200+).

PS it's a very cool page, so I made the effort to translate what the numbers actually were. Thanks for good info. ;)

Damned! I was sure it said 7+, I've been looking quite a lot for it, and even put the "Snapdrogon 7+ gen 3" in quotes searching for it.

Then I have to apologize, that I can't even find a comparative speedtest!? And I couldn't read the Chinese one you linked.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Happens. The chinese one is based on geekerwan results. Unfortunately, they do not have English translations. You can try pasting the website with google translate or taking a screenshot and doing a translate with google lens or a translate app from google or Microsoft.
