Let’s face reality as it is. MediaTek processors does build quality chipsets but when compared to Qualcomm chips, the company often lags behind when it comes to updates and this Helio G85 is not expected to be any different.
It should also be noted that the G85 is a 12 nm processor, so we can expect that the smartphone’s battery management is not as efficient as the “Pro” model.
