MediaTek releases a new flagship chipset for smartphones every year and the Dimensity 9300 is expected to break through soon. The upcoming MediaTek Dimensity 9300 is expected to debut as an upgrade to the Dimensity 9200 SoC that powers handsets like Oppo Find N3 Flip and the Vivo X90 series. The Taiwanese semiconductor company has yet to confirm details about the new chip, but before that, Dimensity 9300 frequency data has been leaked online. It is said to follow the 1+3+4 architecture and be 10 percent faster than Qualcomm’s upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC.
The upcoming MediaTek Dimensity 9300 is believed to feature four Cortex-X4 cores and four Cortex-A720 cores. Now Tipgever Digital Chat Station (translated from Chinese) has presented their clock speeds on Weibo. According to the tipster, the new smartphone chip will have a top-of-the-line CPU core with a maximum clock speed of 3.25 GHz, three cores with a clock speed of 2.85 GHz and four cores with a maximum clock speed of 2.0 GHz.
MediaTek is expected to position the Dimensity 9300 as a direct competitor to Qualcomm’s yet-to-be-announced Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC. The latter is said to include a top-of-the-line CPU core with a maximum clock speed of 3.19 GHz, five cores with a clock speed of 2.96 GHz and two cores with a maximum speed of 2.27 GHz. Based on the CPU clock speeds, the tipster claims that Dimensity 9300 will be 10 percent faster than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC.
The MediaTek Dimensity 9300 is also expected to offer some efficiency and performance improvements over the Dimensity 9200 SoC. The latter is compatible with LPDDR5x memory, UFS 4.0 storage and includes an Arm Cortex-X3 core at 3.05 GHz, three Arm Cortex-A715 cores at 2.85 GHz and four Arm Cortex-A510 cores at 1 .8GHz. These CPU cores are made using TSMC’s second-generation 4nm process.
The Oppo Find X6, Oppo Find N3 Flip and Vivo X90 series are powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 9200 SoC. Meanwhile, the upcoming Vivo X100 Pro+ is expected to run on the Dimensity 9300 SoC.
