It's actually like Samsung vs Samsung here as both are manufactured by Samsung lol (Samsung manufacturing is known to be inefficent) The GPU score here is actually ridiculous as the budget chips that get 250K from 2020's has roughly the same GPU scores. I am not expecting a budget SoC to have midrange gaming performance but any GPU score thats below 60K is inexcusable. 1330 here also has poor GPU score but its understandable on a budget chip.

It's sad to see how processor manufacturers don't optimize powerful SoCs like 4 gen 2 to be able to record 4k.

The CPU is powerful indeed, but the GPU is subpar. It's merely a renamed Adreno 610 from the SD680 and SD665 models.
