Every year, MediaTek and Qualcomm release their flagship mobile processors that power high-end Android smartphones. For example, the Dimensity 9200 (2022) SoC powers smartphones like the Oppo Find X6 and the Vivo X90 series. On the other hand, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC powers smartphones like the Galaxy S23 series. And with the Snapdragon Summit around the corner, MediaTek is gearing up to launch its next generation Dimensity 9 series chipset soon.
Dimensity 9300 will have a 3.25 GHz performance core
The MediaTek Dimensity 9300 SoC is said to come with four Cortex-X4 cores and four Cortex-A720 cores. According to tipster Digital Chat Station, the fastest core has a clock speed of 3.25 GHz. Then there are three cores clocked at 2.85 GHz and the remaining four cores at 2.0 GHz. Typically, mobile processors have a similar cluster, so the more powerful cores can handle demanding tasks while the others save battery power by performing lighter tasks.
In comparison, the alleged Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, which is set to launch soon at the Snapdragon Summit, is said to have a clock speed of 3.19 GHz. Additionally, the chipset is expected to come with five cores at 2.96 GHz and two cores at 2.27 GHz. Based on the maximum clock speed, Digital Chat Station claims that the MediaTek Dimensity 9300 will be 10% faster than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.
A few days ago, the same tipster claimed that he had seen the Antutu V10 benchmark scores of the two mobile chipsets and that the Dimensity 9300 SoC performed better (both in CPU and GPU tests). Additionally, MediaTek’s next processor could offer a 15% overall improvement over its predecessor and a 40% reduction in power efficiency. Still, all the information is just leaks until the company unveils its next chipset, which should be soon.
