MediaTek introduced its flagship mobile chipset, the Dimensity 9500 SoC, in September last year, and today it followed up with the new Dimensity 9500s.
Just like the Dimensity 9500, the new octa-core 9500S also features an "All Big Core" architecture and is built with 3nm process.
MediaTek Dimensity 9500s
The Dimensity 9500s comes with a main core Arm Cortex-X925 Ultra timed on 3.73 GHz. It also has three premium Cortex-X4 cores and four Cortex-A720 performance coresFor graphics, the chipset features the Immortalis-G925 GPU which supports the Ray Tracing, adaptive technology adaptive game 3.0 and fframe technology 3.0. It packs one flagship NPU to support "genetic reasoning and multimodal models."
It has the image processor MediaTek Imagiq for real-time traffic monitoring up to 30 fps, supports recording 8K 60 full-focus video with Dolby Vision HDR and noise reduction. The chip supports camera sensor up to 320MP and WQHD+ screens with a refresh rate of up to 180 Hz.
The 9500s chipset also supports LPDDR5X RAM and UFS storage 4. Comes with Wi-Fi 7, dual SIM dual active 5G, GPS, BeiDou, Glonass, Galileo, NavIC, QZSS, Bluetooth 5.4 and energy saving technology MediaTek UltraSave 4.0.
The company also announced its mid-range chipset at the same event. Dimension 8500.
MediaTek Dimensity 8500
The Dimensity 8500 also has a design All Big Core CPU, but is constructed using a more efficient 4nm process. It is equipped with eight Cortex-A725 cores timed up to 3.4 GHz. It has GPU Mali-G720 which is said to offer up to 25% improved performance and 20% lower energy consumption compared to the previous generation.
Supports 4-channel LPDDR5X RAM, aUFS 4 storage and features MediaTek 8th generation NPU (880) which supports most major language and image generation models.
The chipset also features WiFi 6E, Bluetooth 5.4, the same satellite support in GPS as the flagship 9500s, supports dual active connectivity on 5G networks with dual SIM and the MediaTek UltraSave 3.0+.
In terms of display, the SoC supports maximum camera sensor at 320MP, video recording 4K 60fps And the screens with up to WQHD+ resolution and refresh rate 144 Hz.
