Update (08/12/2023) – FM

MediaTek is preparing the launch of a new platform for top-of-the-line cell phones, and according to new rumors released this Saturday (12), the Dimensity 9300, as it should be called, is expected to be released in Octoberso it is possible that even before Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.

The information was revealed by the leaker Digital Chat Station. According to him, the chip will be produced with TSMC’s N4P lithography, that is, a 4-nanometer process that will also be used in the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, its biggest rival in the universe of Android phones. Looking to beat the competition, the hardware will have a new CPU configuration.

It is speculated that the Dimensity 9300 will have four ARM Cortex-X4 “super cores” high performance processors combined with four ARM Cortex-A720 efficiency cores. This differentiated configuration would make the processor superasse o Apple A17 Bionicwhich will be an industry first with TSMC’s new N3 (3 nanometer) lithography.

One factor that could contribute to the high performance of the Dimensity 9300 is the use of LPDDR5T memory, a new standard that should debut on the MediaTek chip with data transfer speeds of up to 9.6 Gbps.

In the graphics department, the SoC should feature an Immortalis-G720 GPU, but the number of cores used in the graphics block is yet to be revealed. According to ARM, this unit can be equipped with up to 10 cores with support for ray tracing and Deferred Vertex Shading, a technology that promises 15% more performance without suffering from overheating.

There is still no certainty that the Dimensity 9300 will be able to surpass the performance of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and A17 Bionic, which will be the successors of the most powerful chips in the industry today, according to benchmark data.

Will it beat the A17 Bionic? Dimensity 9300 may outperform Apple’s chip and have 4 Cortex-X4 cores

ARM announced the new Cortex-X4 and Cortex-A720 cores this week and MediaTek officially confirmed that its next high-end chip will feature them in its specifications. Now two Weibo leakers claim that this could make the Dimensity 9300 outperform even the Apple A17 Bionic.

Today’s tipsters are users Digital Chat Station and Ice Universe, who claimed on Weibo that the Dimensity 9300 should have four high-performance Cortex-X4 cores combined with four efficient Cortex-A720 cores.

According to both, this powerful combination will allow the Dimensity 9300 to outperform the future Apple A17 Bionic with high energy efficiency thanks to TSMC’s N4P manufacturing process.

In addition, it is worth remembering that the MediaTek chip will feature ARM’s new Immortalis-G720 GPU, which should be one of the most powerful ever launched by the manufacturer.

According to ARM itself, this GPU can be equipped with up to 10 cores, offers Smart Global Illumination for greater support for ray tracing and Deferred Vertex Shading to generate 15% more performance without suffering from overheating.

Despite everything, we will still have to wait to see if the Dimensity 9300 will have the power to overcome the Apple A17 Bionic of the iPhone 15 Pro and Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 that will be announced later this year.
