Amy Guesner, the assistant vp for company gross sales at MediaTek, made an thrilling announcement on Thursday. The chief introduced that an unnamed premium phase telephone powered by a MediaTek flagship software processor (AP) will launch within the U.S. later this yr. The announcement was made throughout an occasion for analysts. Guesner’s announcement was the topic of a
tweet posted by advisor @nirave on “X.”
One chance is that the U.S. certain premium phase telephone to be powered by a flagship MediaTek chipset will likely be made by Motorola. The Motorola Edge (2022) featured a mid-range Dimensity chipset though the high-end Edge+ (2022) was outfitted with a Snapdragon AP. Keep in mind, this telephone will likely be within the premium worth phase so whereas it’s potential that
Motorola is behind this thriller handset, it may very well be a brand new mannequin made particularly to tackle
Apple and
Samsung within the U.S.
A thriller U.S. telephone within the premium phase will come to market later this yr with a flagship MediaTek chipset
MediaTek’s present flagship chip is the Dimensity 9300 AP which has a novel configuration made up of 4 excessive efficiency Cortex-X4 CPU cores and 4 efficiency Cortex-A720 CPU cores. The chip doesn’t use any low-powered high-efficiency cores for much less complicated duties. On Could seventh,
MediaTek is anticipated to introduce the Dimensity 9300+ which has one sooner Cortex-X4 core. It additionally will characteristic an enhanced AI Processing Unit (APU).
If the chipset within the unnamed premium U.S. telephone is not the Dimensity 9300+, it may very well be the Dimensity 9400 SoC, which is presently being prepped for a fourth quarter launch. The Dimensity 9400 can even eschew the usage of high-efficiency cores. One rumored configuration consists of the usage of one Cortex-X5 high-performance CPU core, three Cortex-X4 high-performance CPU cores, and 4 Cortex-A720 efficiency CPU cores.
Probably, the flagship MediaTek chip for use within the premium U.S. telephone will depend upon its launch date. If the gadget is launched properly earlier than the fourth quarter begins in October, we might anticipate it to sport the Dimensity 9300+. A fourth quarter launch would level to the usage of the Dimensity 9400. A earlier rumor that made the rounds final month known as for the Dimensity 9400
to be the biggest smartphone chip and stated that it might carry 30 billion transistors. To place that in perspective, the
Apple A17 Professional SoC used on the
iPhone 15 Professional line comprises 19 billion transistors. The upper a chip’s transistor depend, the extra highly effective or energy-efficient the chip normally is.
