core stuff news on January 19, according to Taiwan's "Business Times" report, MediaTek 5nm Dimensity 2000 series chips have won OPPO, vivo, Honor Waiting for customer demand for the project, it is expected to be gradually mass-produced and shipped in the fourth quarter of this year, and will be launched in the first quarter of 2022.
It is reported that this year MediaTek’s main products may be the Dimensity 1200 chip using the 6nm process and the down-clocked and peripheral version of the Dimensity 1100.
1. See you tomorrow at Dimensity 1200! Vivo, OPPO, Honor pre-book
Currently, MediaTek is supplying Dimensity 720, Dimensity 800 and Dimensity 1000 chips to mobile phone brands such as Honor, OPPO and realme. Tomorrow, MediaTek will hold a new product launch conference for Dimensity and is expected to officially release the Dimensity 1200.
related news said that the Dimensity 1200, codenamed "MT6893", will use TSMC's 6nm process technology . The CPU includes one 3.0GHz A78 large core, three 2.6GHz A78 medium cores and four 2.0GHz A55 small cores. The GPU uses Mali-G77 MC9.
blogger "Digital Chat Station" exclusively broke the news about another chip Dimensity 1100. It is said that this chip also uses TSMC's 6nm process and is composed of 4 A78 and 4 A55. The main frequency is around 2.6GHz, and the GPU is similar. It has a lower frequency than Dimensity 1200, and slightly worse APU. It supports FHD+ 144Hz screen (Dimensity 1200 supports FHD+ 168Hz), supports UFS 3.1 flash memory and LPDDR4x memory.
According to foreign media FoeArena, Dimensity 1200 has better performance than Qualcomm Snapdragon 865. After the Dimensity new product launch conference on the 20th, we will know more details about Dimensity 1200.
2. MediaTek Dimensity 2000 is already on the way, Arm new CPU performance is even higher
In addition to 6nm chips, MediaTek 5nm chips are also rumored to be released this year.
According to Taiwan's "Business Times", the Dimensity 2000 chip using the 5nm process has received project start-up demands from customers such as OPPO, vivo, and Honor. It is expected to be gradually mass-produced and shipped in the fourth quarter of this year, and will be launched in the first quarter of 2022. .
Foreign media GSMArena said that Dimensity 2000 may become MediaTek’s first SoC chip using a high-performance Cortex-X core. Because Dimensity 2000 was released later, it is expected to achieve better performance by using Cortex-X2, Cortex-A79 CPU and Mali-G79 GPU.
According to information previously announced by Arm, its CPU performance delivered in 2022 is expected to be 30% higher than the current A78 CPU performance, and will no longer support 32-bit applications.
Conclusion: MediaTek is ambitious, who can beat Dimensity or Snapdragon ?
Although the theoretical performance of MediaTek Dimensity 1200 cannot be compared with Snapdragon 888, as a mid-range chip, its performance may surpass Snapdragon 865. The 5nm mobile chip war is short of MediaTek's entry, Dimensity 2000 The performance will also attract much attention from the industry.
The subsequent Dimensity 2000 also proved that MediaTek will continue to compete with Snapdragon in the mobile chip market. However, the performance of Qualcomm Snapdragon, as a more mature market-oriented product, has always been very stable, and Dimensity still needs to continue to polish its commercial capabilities.
