Greetings MIUIers
Hey guys!! I am back!! Hope you guys had a nice day! Are you guys excited for the Redmi Note 5 Launch? I'm exaggerated by Redmi Note 5 Pro brand new Powerhouse Processor which is Snapdragon 636. So let us talk about the new Powerhouse Snapdragon 636 Specs. Let's get started!
Qulacomm Snapdragon 636 feature brand new 4 Performance + 4 efficiency Kryo 260 Core running at 1.8GHz delivering 40% higher performance compare to A53 cores in Snapdragon 630!
This type of configuration is similar to Snapdragon 835, a flagship chip that used in Xiaomi Mi6 and Xiaomi Mi Mix 2. Expect Snapdragon 636 carries the flagship chip DNA!
Here's the benchmark score of Redmi Note 5 Pro running on 636
It seems Snapdragon 636 score has massively improved from to the score of Snapdragon 625. Benchmark score is just a paper reference, the performance of the phone still relies on our own usage so we can't judge the phone performance by just looking at the benchmark score.
Using 14nm technology will increase performance and lower power consumption. Snapdragon 636 like its predecessor uses 14nm FinFet will offer a smaller chip footprint, giving OEMs more usable space inside upcoming products to support larger batteries or slimmer designs. Process improvements, combined with a more advanced chip design, are expected to bring significant improvements in battery life.

One of the benefits of using Snapdragon chips is 3D/Gaming efficiency, and that’s all because of the first class Adreno graphics. Adreno 509 seems to be to constructed based on the predecessor Adreno 508 from Snadpragon 636 delivering 10% better graphics and reduce frame lag during gaming session comapre to Snapdragon 630. Adreno 509 also supports Vulkan 1.0, DirectX12 and Open GL ES 3.2.
Moreover, Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 features The Spectra 160 ISP which support Qualcomm’s Clear Sight technology for color and monochrome sensor combinations for better contrast and noise and Snapdragon Optical Zoom module, which as the name suggests brings 2x optical zoom capabilities and an improved 10x digital zoom to the platform.
This technology works using a telephoto lens alongside a wide-angle lens.Spectra remains a 14-bit dual ISP setup that supports up to dual 13MP cameras or a single 24MP sensor.
The Snapdragon 636 features a modem that supports "X12 LTE" speeds, which equates to an absolute maximum 600 Mbps connection. You’ll rarely find that sort of speed anywhere in the world, but that improved modem will also help with more reliable and efficient connections on slower 4G networks. It also supports 802.11ac WiFi 1x1 MU-MIMO configuration with speed up to 364Mbps ( Depends on your router, speed may be different)
Snapdragon 636 uses The Qualcomm® Hexagon™ DSP. It is designed to significantly improve performance and battery life, and includes the Qualcomm All-Ways Aware™ sensor hub and Hexagon Vector extensions (HVX) which is capable of handling heavy imaging and video processing tasks quickly and efficiently.

Qualcomm’s Aqstic audio codec still present in Snapdragon 636. Expect like its predecessor Snapdragon 630, it wil support an audiophile grade DAC with 24-bit/192kHz playback capabilities, complete with an SNR at 109dB and low -103dB THD+N. Those who prefer wireless playback will be pleased to note that the Snapdragon 636 continues to support Qualcomm’s aptX and aptX HD. Furthermore, echo and background noise cancellation is handled efficiently on the DSP.
Other than the new and improved CPU, DSP, and GPU cores, Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 support fast LPDDR4x random access memory in a dual configuration with 1333MHz clock speed. Moreover, flash memory support UFS as well as eMMC.
