The Gen 4, Version 2 is more power-efficient than higher-end processors. However, don't expect it to perform at the same level as higher-end processors, such as the 778G.

I think 778G has a better ISP, since it's able to record up to 4k 30, and 1k 60, on the 4 Gen 2.

Clearly will be the SD778. I don't know how 4Γ—a78+4Γ—55 can be inferior to the 2Γ—a78+6Γ—55 cluster, knowing that 6nm of TSMC is probably comparable to 4nm of Samsung.
