MediaTek has launched its Dimensity 1300. This next-generation 5G SoC replaces the Dimensity 1200 without really changing the formula. The OnePlus Nord 2T will be the first to benefit from it.
The differences with the Dimensity 1200, launched last year, not obvious. But whatever, MediaTek announces its Dimensity 1300 this week. This “new” 5G chip uses a configuration similar, if not identical, to that of its predecessor, with the same 6 nm engraving from TSMC. There are once more four high-performance Cortex A79 cores (including an “Ultra” core clocked at 3 GHz, and three “Super” cores limited to 2.6 GHz), supported by four high-efficiency Cortex A55 cores (clocked for their part at 2GHz). The 3D calculation is provided by a Mali G77 MC9 graphic part. It is a priori the same iGPU as on the Dimensity 1100 and 1200.
As reported XDA Developersthe OnePlus Nord 2T will be the first to integrate the Dimensity 1300 into it.
We take the same and start once more…
On the performance side, it is not too risky to suggest that this Dimensity 1300 will develop more or less the same computing power as the Dimensity 1200. Rather well received, the latter had allowed MediaTek to invite itself on mid-range smartphones. opulent, even top-of-the-range range throughout the last year. Due to its apparent technical stagnation, we imagine that the Dimensity 1300 will also target mid-range mobiles from 2022… as its integration with the OnePlus Nord 2T seems to confirm, expected below the 400 euro mark.
In terms of embedded technologies, however, MediaTek is slightly changing the formula. In particular, we switch to HyperEngine 5.0 technology ( once morest 3.0 on the Dimensity 1200), which notably improves the efficiency of the AI-doped VRS, offered with the Mali G77 graphics part. The Dimensity 1300 might therefore be slightly more effective in play than its ancestor. Improvements related to 5G connectivity and the responsiveness of touch screens are also announced.
