It seems the only difference in hardware is the Bluetooth improvement to 5.3 in the 7020 over the 930 which has 5.2

So not only are the cpu's the exact same with just wo different names, but the mediatek 930 somehow manages to beat the mediatek 7020 in GeekBench in both single score and multi score. LOL

The 7020 is just a renamed version of the 930, dude. There isn't a single difference except the name. That minor change in the Geekbench score is due to results obtained from different devices.
