A fresh leak from tipster Digital Chat Station suggests that MediaTek is gearing up to release its flagship chipset, the Dimensity 9400, earlier than expected.
Rumored to hit the market by mid-October, this launch would place MediaTek ahead of Qualcomm, which is set to introduce its Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 on October 21, 2024.
The new Dimensity 9400 chipset is anticipated to make its debut in devices like the vivo X200 series or OPPO Find X8 series.
Built on a cutting-edge 3nm process, the Dimensity 9400 is expected to bring a significant boost in performance. It is rumored to feature a new Cortex-X925 core that could offer up to 30% better single-core performance while also reducing power consumption by 30% compared to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. This chipset is also expected to be the first to utilize Samsung’s 10.7 Gbps LPDDR5x memory, promising faster and more efficient performance.
Additionally, MediaTek is reportedly developing a Dimensity 8400 chipset aimed at a slightly more affordable segment, potentially bringing high-end features to a broader range of devices.
With these advancements, MediaTek seems poised to challenge its competitors and redefine performance standards in the mobile chipset market.
