This feature diversity makes it difficult to speak of the fastest smartphone processor, overall.

The clock rate and the number of cores of the central CPU computing unit do not say anything about how fast the smartphone works in certain tasks.Īn SoC consists of a CPU, graphics processor (GPU), LTE modem, multimedia processor, security, signal processor, an AI accelerator, and often units for Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. This means that several processor types are lasered into one piece of silicon, which significantly influences the working speed of the smartphone. Processors for smartphones always come as a single system on a chip (SoC).
