$369 is for note 8 pro, which is using Helio G90T. The 665 in redmi note 8 only cost RRP $269.

because of the better performing SoC on the note7

the difference in performance between the 660 and 665 is negligible as they are effectively the same soc. if anything, the 665 should be more power efficient for the same performance. hopefully its cos xm sg realised that they cannot markup prices so much anymore.

Last time the Mi Official Stores were run by 2 different companies. Now I think all under the same company (the same one which runs the Malaysia Mi Official Stores). So I think they put the Sg prices almost the same as the Msia prices.

more power efficient, yes I agree. 11nm vs 14nm.
665 has better ISP and DSP processing, yes it's true.

but same CPU performance? not necessarily. numbers speaks for themselves.

furthermore, 665 only supports up to QC3.0 while 660 is QC4.0.
660 supports up WQHD+ display while 665 only up to FHD+.

but calling these two effective the same SoCs is far, far from being factual.

I’ll gladly take 11nm for the efficiency rather than 14nm just for 10% improvement in performance :s13:
But yea 665 is inferior in terms of performance when it comes to benchmark scores.
