MediaTek has launched its MediaTek Dimensity 920 chipset, and the SoC is all set to take the smartphone market by storm. The 5G-capable chip delivers plenty of upgrades apart from enhanced performance. Not only it contributes to the company’s already strong efforts to bring 5G to the people, but it will also ensure that high-end features become more accessible. If you’re wondering what’s new in the Dimensity 920 chipset, here are all the details.
Boosted gaming performance and power efficiency
The MediaTek Dimensity 920 is a fully loaded SoC and has everything that’s needed to offer top-tier performance not just for daily tasks but also for gaming. Based on the 6nm production process, this chipset delivers improved performance and reduces power consumption. The octa-core processor onboard this chip is home to two ARM Cortex-A78 cores clocked at up to 2.5GHz and six ARM Cortex-A55 cores clocked at up to 2GHz. Thanks to all this, phone manufacturers can now better cater to gamers who enjoy long, lag-and-stutter free sessions on demanding games like Battlegrounds Mobile India. The chipset’s strong ARM Mali-G68 GPU also has a big hand to play in this department. Gaming is further enhanced by the presence of the MediaTek HyperEngine 3.0 technology on this chipset. This version adds several connectivity enhancements that are aimed at offering uninterrupted gaming sessions while reducing power consumption. Take, for instance, its Networking Engine 3.0 feature, which searches and connects to the lowest latency cell tower available to minimise online ping.
Speed is also a priority in the other aspects of the MediaTek Dimensity 920 chipset. It provides support for the fastest UFS 3.1 storage and integrates LPDDR5 memory. This combination will make a vast difference in the user experience that phone makers will be able to provide to their customers. Faster multitasking and quick transfers will readily be at their disposal. With this chipset onboard, users won’t have to think about any performance issues hampering their smartphone use.
Incredible connectivity with dual SIM 5G and Wi-Fi 6
MediaTek has made sure to keep the MediaTek Dimensity 920 ready for the coming 5G boom in the Indian market. It supports dual SIM 5G along with dual VoNR, offering users more choice and more performance with regards to VoNR services. It will result in clear voice calls with imperceptible lag. Moreover, there’s even support for 2CC carrier aggregation, enabling higher average speeds and seamless handovers between two 5G connection areas for higher speed, increased connection coverage, and better reliability. This aggregation applies to both TDD and FDD spectrum usage techniques.
