9500 Die Shot from Baidu:



From the Comments:

10.88 * 12.92 = 140.5696 mm2

C1-Ultra: 3.1	C1-Premium: 1.9	C1-Pro: 1.1
X925: 3.3	X4m: 1.7	A720m: 1.0

8 elite gen 5 big core looking better and better with a seemingly considerable area deficit (2.2 mm2 according to Geekerwan). Vs C1 Ultra, we don't even need to consider sme area as both have it.

Yeah, Oryon v3 is the better core for sure. Though the C1 Ultra has a 2MB private L2. Without it, they would be about the same size.

Wow the Premiums suck. What on Earth is this:

Borked physdes? Same L2 capacity, but the integer pipeline of the Premium should be very similar to the Ultra. And it's not like X4 was implemented by a different company, it's literally last years' MTK design.

I think this time around ARM only managed to markedly improved the Ultra. I'm sure next gen Dimensity 9600 will come with a better improvement on the Premium and the Pro. Hope the next gen Ultra would get the same big improvement too.

Even with half of memory bus, D9500 managed to shown improvement up to 2.7X.

1 - You're comparing a cut-down version of the Snapdragon Purwa die to the full Dimensity 9500. At least you'd need to compare the full die version of Purwa which has a 2.1 TFLOPs GPU.

2 - 2.7x difference in theoretical FP32 throughput in GPUs from different architectures doesn't mean much, if at all.

3 - It makes more sense to compare the D9500 to the Elite Gen 5 which are indeed SoCs with similar market positions and same process node. In that case, the Elite Gen 5 gets better geekbench results for both ST and MT.
