1.Chipset

Be it the Snapdragon 765G or the MediaTek Dimensity 1000L both perform almost similarly. While SD765G has a better picture processing capability and high powered single core processor, MediaTek Dimensity 1000L performs better in the GPU department. Even though MediaTek Dimensity 1000L does have a higher AnTuTu score than SD765G but this score can vary from device to device. Both processor have 5G connectivity.

2.Camera Setup

The smartphone is expected to have a camera for selfies in the center. Which is unlike previous models which sported either a notch design or had a popup camera. According to the leaked pictures it is also set to have a 3 camera setup at the back.
