News & Reviews:   MediaTek

As we’ve shared previously, MediaTek today unveiled its new mid-range mobile processor, the 4nm Dimensity 8300. The successor to the Dimensity 8200, the new chipset offers several upgrades which we will elaborate on below.

Fresh from announcing the flagship Dimensity 9300 chipset earlier this month, MediaTek is set to release another SoC, the Dimensity 8300. Expected to be an upper mid-range mobile processor, read on to find out more.

In this festive tech season, it was MediaTek's turn to showcase its latest product. MediaTek Dimensity 9300 chipset is now official and it was announced as the first to market with the latest Arm Cortex-X4 and Cortex-A720 processors.

If you look at chipsets for the smartphone market, it's more or less a two-horse race between Qualcomm and MediaTek. Both companies are expected to launch their latest flagship mobile chipset later this month. Best of all, we're already getting details for the latter's new Dimensity 9300.

MediaTek has announced its latest mobile processor in China, the Dimensity 7200 Ultra. Built on TSMC’s 4nm process, the chipset is a slightly more powerful version of the Dimensity 7200.

MediaTek today announced that it has successfully developed its first chip using TSMC’s 3nm technology. Taping out the company’s flagship Dimensity system-on-chip (SoC), volume production is expected to begin next year.

Samsung and MediaTek recently joined forces to achieve a breakthrough in 5G upload speed performance in the former’s lab in Suwon, South Korea. Specifically, the collaboration managed to achieve record speeds on a 5G Standalone network with 2CC Carrier Aggregation (CA) with C Band featuring Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO).

For the longest time, ARM-based chipsets followed the ARM big.LITTLE concept. The idea is to have a CPU with performance cores and power efficiency cores. But we could see a new MediaTek chipset later this year that abandons or changes that concept.

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.

In mid-April, MediaTek announced that it would launch a new flagship chipset on 10 May 2023. But the Dimensity 9200+ isn't the only one that the company has up its sleeve this month. Now, we also have news of the MediaTek Dimensity 7050 chipset.
