Although it was known for its processors for affordable phones in the past, MediaTek, which has recently started to give life to flagship phones with its work, has announced the brand new processor Dimensity 9000, which is full of “firsts in the world”. Dimensity 9000, which is the first processor to use TSMC’s 4nm process technology, seems to change the balance between 2022 model flagships. So what does this processor promise to consumers?
The MediaTek Dimensity 9000 is the first processor to use the latest ARM-based cores, Cortex-X2, A710 and A510. Also; The Mali-G710 GPU is also used for the first time in this processor. Similarly, LPDDR5X RAM support appeared for the first time in this processor. Another “first” feature of the processor is Bluetooth 5.3 support.
35 percent more powerful than Snapdragon 888
MediaTek’s new processor for flagship phones has an 8-core structure. These cores are 1 Cortex-X2, 3 Cortex-A710 and 4 Cortex-A510. The speeds were announced as 3.05 GHz, 2.85 GHz and 1.8 GHz, respectively. According to MediaTek, the new processor offers at least 35 percent higher performance than the Snapdragon 888, while at least 37 percent more efficient. It is stated that the processor, which entered the GeekBench 5.0 test, offers almost the same performance as the Apple A15 Bionic. The Mali-G710 GPU, on the other hand, offers 35 percent more performance and 60 percent efficiency increase, while the ray tracing feature of this GPU does not escape attention.
*You see a comparison of the Dimensity 9000 with the Android flagship processors as well as the processors used in iPhones.
MediaTek Dimensity 9000 will ‘blow’ with its camera features
MediaTek’s processor to be used in 2022 flagship phones supports sensors that offer 320 MP resolution. This feature of the processor is also a world first. In addition, 3 sensors of 32 MP can be used easily in this processor. Moreover, all three sensors will be able to work during 4K HDR video shooting. The processor, which can offer processing speed up to 9 GPixel, also has a special shooting mode called “Super Night Video Recording”. By the way; Let’s not forget that the processing speed per second that Snapdragon 888 can offer to camera sensors is 2.7 GPixel.
When we look at the other features of the processor, we encounter notable innovations such as download speed support up to 7,000 Mbps, Wi-Fi 6E and wireless stereo sound. On the other hand; This processor will also draw attention with its artificial intelligence power. The 5th generation artificial intelligence engine, developed for use in games, multimedia applications and other software, is 5 times more efficient than the previous generation.
It is not known what will be the first phone where MediaTek’s new processor will be used. However, according to the company, this processor will reach consumers in the first quarter of 2022. Let’s see which brands will entrust their flagship phones to the new processor of MediaTek. . .
