It was reported to be built on the newer and advanced 64-bit architecture. Apart from that, the chip consists of eight strong ARM Cortex-A53 cores clocking up to 1.4 GHz, providing premium processing performance for budget friendly devices. Compared to the 410 and 415, the 430 was a certified beast in the lower segment as at the time of launch and did excellently well.

I’ve stated above that the chip utilizes the power of eight 64-Bit Cortex-A53 CPU cores, which was fitted with dual-channel LPDDR3 memory controller which clocks at 1600MHz (also known as memory speed. It also provides provide support for integrated X6 LTE modem, Cat. 4 with maximum transfer rates of 150 Mbps (downstream) and 75 Mbps (upstream).

There’s also support for LTE dual SIM (DSDS), Multi-threaded, high performance in mid-tier devices and 5.1 surround sound with Dolby and DTS. It’s also worthy to note that the single channel LPDDR3 is only clocked at 800MHz.

Process Technology (nm)

The 430 was built on an older 28nm process technology capable of providing medium power consumption. But it’s not that powerful compared to modern day chipsets with newer process nodes.

Benchmarks (AnTuTu)

The chipset has a fairly standard rating across several benchmarks. According to AnTuTu V6, the chip has a minimum score of 42798, maximum 47066 Points, average 45026.6 points and a median 44963.5 (16%).
