MediaTek Dimensity 9400 SoC, the corporate’s newest flagship-tier smartphone processor, was launched on Wednesday. The corporate had beforehand revealed that the cellular platform can be launched in October and shared some minor particulars, and now it has detailed the specs and the capabilities of the processor. The tech big claimed that the brand new system-on-chip (SoC) affords 35 p.c sooner efficiency on a single core than its predecessor. The MediaTek Dimensity 9400 SoC competes with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset and the Apple A18 collection chipsets.
In a press launch, the chip maker launched the brand new cellular platform. The MediaTek Dimensity 9400 chipset is a fourth-generation flagship processor constructed with Arm’s v9.2 CPU structure in addition to devoted GPU and neural processing unit (NPU) architectures. Notably, it’s constructed on TSMC’s second-generation 3nm fabrication course of.
Persevering with with the custom of all large core design, it options one Cortex-X925 core with a most clock pace of three.62GHz, three Cortex-X4 cores, and 4 Cortex-A720 cores. The corporate claims that the CPU structure affords 35 p.c sooner single-core efficiency and 28 p.c sooner multi-core efficiency in comparison with the Dimensity 9300 SoC. It is usually stated to supply 40 p.c extra energy effectivity in comparison with its predecessor.
The MediaTek Dimensity 9400 chipset additionally integrates the corporate’s eighth-generation NPU and affords on-device LoRA coaching, on-device video era functionality, and developer assist for Agentic synthetic intelligence (AI). The corporate claimed that the SoC may present as much as 80 p.c sooner massive language mannequin (LLM) immediate efficiency whereas sustaining 35 p.c extra energy effectivity than the earlier era.
Coming to the GPU, the cellular platform is built-in with the 12-core Arm Immortalis-G925, which is claimed to supply 40 p.c sooner raytracing efficiency in comparison with its predecessor. Moreover, MediaTek claimed that it additionally supplies 41 p.c peak efficiency enchancment and 44 p.c energy saving in comparison with the Dimensity 9300. The chipset additionally helps HyperEngine expertise.
Aside from this, the MediaTek Dimensity 9400 options Imagiq 1090 for on-device picture processing. It has some minor enhancements as effectively similar to HDR video recording all through your entire zoom vary, enhancements in capturing transferring objects, and decrease energy consumption when recording in 4K60 fps movies in comparison with its predecessor.
