Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 vs 888 Comparison with Detailed Review :

well most of the Android users are well aware that The Snapdragon SoCs are best even among the most other SoCs in the Smartphone Industry well Its because the Snapdragon always tries to be one step ahead of other company when coming to the innovatives of the processor development and due to that it became symbol of most of android mobile & users loved it so much. while snapdragon constantly increasing its Functionalities in discreet ways development became more and more rapid, also production series constantly became more amazingly innovative while talking about snapdragon today i am here to discuss about its latest series snp 8 Gen 1 and its best 8 series to the present snp 888. Most of the people already knows more about because of various sources like youtube, google etc. but i am here because i too want to share my fair of knowledge about these two.

Above i only mentioned most of details we are aware of, As we can see the differences between these two there isnt that much of difference in comparision but these small changescan also varies the performance well take nm technology for example 888 is based on 5nm whereas 4nm (nm means nano meter distance) it can significantly varies the performance but not at the highest. well going onwards to Antutu benchmark reviews we can see other differences

Comparison of benchmarks between SDP888 & SDP 8 Gen 1:

By comparing these two Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 (with Adreno 660 graphics) and Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 (Adreno 730). We will find the pros and cons of each chip, technical specs, and comprehensive tests in benchmarks, like AnTuTu and Geekbench.

As with these three Benchmark comparions we now know the differences between SDP 888 & SDP 8 Gen 1 even tough there are small differences with these two there isnt that much of gap. oh and also different mobile varies the performance even tough they have same chip in both so if you want choose mobiles with these chipsets choose wisely. I hope who ever reads this has Clarified some of their doubts.
