In introducing its new Dimensity 8200 chip, MediaTek made more than foot calls to gaming smartphone manufacturers. It was designed for this purpose!
Impossible to miss, MediaTek has been very clear that the Dimensity 8200 is intended first and foremost for the most gaming users. And the most demanding! The founder has integrated on his system-on-chip a new HyperEngine 6.0 engine specifically designed for mobile gaming. It ensures the smoothest display possible by avoiding connection drops, jitters or image hiccups.
A chip adapted to the most demanding smartphone games
Intelligent Display Sync 2.0 technology, for its part, makes it possible to very precisely adapt the display frequency of the screen in relation to the framerate of the game. support for Bluetooth LE Audio (Bluetooth 5.3). Also interesting is the compatibility with Wi-Fi 6E, which boosts access to wireless networks.
In terms of pure performance, the Dimensity 8200 should not be unworthy, with an 8-core processor, including 4 powerful Cortex-A78 cores clocked at 3.1 GHz, supported by a Mali-G610 GPU. As for other more classic uses of a smartphone, the chip can also support photo sensors up to 320 megapixels and HDR videos in 14 bits with noise reduction (useful in low light situations) . It will be possible to record three video streams from as many sensors.
The APU 580 delivers industry-leading performance for AI-related tasks. And of course, 5G support is built in, including super-fast millimeter wave. The Dimensity 8200 should quickly be found in a good number of gaming smartphones, especially since Mediatek has promised an affordable price.
