News & Reviews:   Dimensity 9400

The next-gen mobile processors by both Qualcomm and MediaTek are expected to sport next-gen prices as well if a leak by reliable tipster Digital Chat Station is to be believed. This is after the tipster said that both SoCs will be 20 per cent more expensive than their respective predecessors.

It's all about AI these days, with hardware and software manufacturers designing devices to cater to that. Among them are mobile chip makers MediaTek, which has been designing chipsets to power AI platforms. In fact, the company's Dimensity 9400 chipset will arrive in Q4 2024.

When it comes to flagship chipsets, the GPU is often as important as the CPU. That's especially true for gaming smartphones, which are catered to mobile gamers. For MediaTek, mobile GPU has never been an area of expertise so the company decided to partner up with Nvidia.
