7 + gen 2 are 778G successor, cooler chipset but yet powerful enough, suitable as the price.

The S7 is simply a Samsung scam; the ARM V8 chip has been renamed as if it were a V9. This alleges a huge leap in technology.

I believe that Qualcomm has not yet introduced a suitable successor to the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 processor. Despite my admiration for Snapdragon processors, particularly the top-tier ones such as the SD 7+ Gen 2 SoC, I lean more towards Mediatek processors because they are less expensive yet still powerful – particularly the Dimensity models 9300, 9200+, 9200, 8300 (or 8300 Ultra), and 8200 chips. I am aware that game developers have typically optimized their products for Snapdragon processors. Although, I am optimistic that this bias will shift in the future. For instance, the Dimensity 9300 currently outperforms the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in almost every category, including CPU, GPU, and memory. Yet, most original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) still prefer to use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 to power their flagship smartphones, rather than the Dimensity 9300. Nevertheless, I remain hopeful that these preferences will evolve over time, and that OEMs will begin to choose flagship Mediatek processors for their devices.

Exactly, manufacturers find Snapdragon to deliver more consistent and unparalleled performance than Dimensity. Even though it still beats all other chipsets when it comes to optimization, Dimensity 9300, despite being the best CPU, is on par with the performance level of Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 (Poco F6).

After watching numerous reviews by tech enthusiasts on various cellphones using the SD 7S G2 and the SD 7plus G2, I'm thoroughly convinced that the SD 7plus G2 is the better option. It might be slightly more expensive, but the additional cost is well worth it.

The comparison shows that the 2nd generation of 7s has a higher GPU frequency, around 62%, a significant discrepancy.

It's like a slim version of the powerful 7 Plus Gen 2. The only downside of the 7s Gen 2 is the GPU, it's not much better than the 778G. It's not weak, but it should be upgraded.

Really, the only downside is the GPU? I accept that the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 is not the most powerful chip, but it's not just the GPU that's underwhelming. In fact, its CPU is also considerably less powerful than that of the Snapdragon 7 Plus Gen 2 SoC, which is very clear from a breakdown of their Antutu scores. I strongly believe that Qualcomm needs to produce a worthy successor to the Snapdragon 7 Plus Gen 2 processor.

It’s safe to say that the SD7+ gen2 is not a mid-range chip, it’s a flagship chipset with an SD7 name.
