News & Reviews:   MediaTek

After launching the flagship 4nm Dimensity 9000 chip, MediaTek still hasn't finished its job as it has a mid-range chip pending. According to well-known tipster Digital Chat Station, the semiconductor manufacturer could soon launch the 5nm Dimesnity 8000 to power next year's mid-range devices.

MediaTek's Dimensity has been quite popular for the past two years, as more and more phones of all ranges are using different kinds of chipsets. Today, the company is proud to present the latest Dimensity 9000 chipset.

Earlier, it was reported that MediaTek would beat Apple to launch the first 4nm processor. Now, it might be happening soon as the company has shared an official teaser video of the processor on YouTube today, with the title "The World's First 4nm-class Smartphone Chip".

The next-gen flagship chips from Qualcomm and MediaTek are expected to arrive later this year. Recently, we've also heard several rumours about respective offerings, Snapdragon 898 and Dimensity 2000. Now, a reputable Chinese tipster shared that the two chips might be very close in terms of performance, which hypes up the competition even more.

Samsung produces in-house chipsets, but they barely get used by the company's own smartphones. However, things might be changing soon as the latest report claims that the Korean tech giant is planning to push the usage of the Exynos chip among the Galaxy devices.

We think the rumours for the competition of 2022 flagship chips are already fierce enough even without them being in the market yet. According to the latest report, the upcoming MediaTek Dimensity 2000 will be 20% more power-efficient than Qualcomm's next-generation flagship chip, Snapdragon 898.

Based on a statement by gizchina, it seems that AMD could start manufacturing mobile chipsets in collaboration with MediaTek in the near future. While there is no official information in regards to when will AMD release their first chipset, it does give us a better idea of what to expect from them in the near future.

It looks like AMD is planning to contribute its technology to another smartphone chip maker besides Samsung. According to the latest report from DigiTimes, MediaTek could be the next to enjoy the benefits of the RDNA graphics chip. However, do note that everything is still in the discussion stage, so it's best to not get your hopes up yet.

It's almost time for the next-gen flagship war with the chip makers preparing their 4nm offerings for the smartphone companies. According to a Chinese tipster from Weibo, the upcoming MediaTek Dimensity 2000 will be based on TSMC's 4nm process, which might give it a chance to rival other powerful contenders.

MediaTek has launched two new 5G chipsets today, the Dimensity 920 and Dimensity 810. Both of them are mid-rangers based on the 6nm process and are ready to compete with what's available in the market. Without further ado, let's check out the key tech specs and features brought by these two new MediaTek's offerings.
