Snapdragon 810 is very old processor but the performance was good. From mobile legends. It has a good performances while the genshin impact is very to low performance. But over all I think it's very good 👍

Pros

• Mobile legends good performance

Cons

• But other game like genshin impact I do not recommend this game for snapdragon 810

This CPU gets very hot. It gets too hot and you can burn your hands, or the heat from the CPU can damage your smartphone. It's a very bad CPU. This is the worst CPU in Snapdragon.
