MediaTek is preparing to release the MediaTek 9200 SoC with ARM's Cortex X3 New Core
MediaTek is preparing to launch its next flagship chipset in November, featuring a new Cortex-X3 core from ARM. The new CPU is expected to deliver 25% more execution power than its predecessor. The chipset will use TSMC's 4nm manufacturing node.
The MediaTek Dimensity 9200 is rumored to be the successor to the Dimensity 9000 processor, which was released in July. The company has been preparing its successor since then and has leaked some details about the chip. The processor will be built on a 4-nanometer process and will feature ARM Cortex-X3 cores for 25% more performance. The new processor is expected to debut in November and will first be seen in phones from vivo and OPPO.
The new chip should be released before the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip. MediaTek has been a little behind in the processor market, so the upcoming Dimensity 9200 is likely to improve on that. The new chip will also feature an Immortalis G715 GPU to improve the efficiency of the processor.
The new chip is expected to use TSMC's 4nm process, and is expected to power two phones, the OPPO Find X series, as well as a gaming phone. It is expected to compete with Qualcomm's upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, which will be introduced in November.
The new processor will be more power-efficient than the previous generation and will allow for more responsive apps and high FPS. Those who are gaming will appreciate the 9% performance boost and 4K HDR video recording. The new chip will also support a wide range of camera features and power-efficient connectivity.
