According to a leak from the trusty Twitter leaker @tech_reve, the MediaTek Dimensity 9300 is shaping up to be a real contender, rumored to launch in October 2023. Picture this: an eight-core CPU boasting a sleek 2+4+2 configuration.
The real star of the show is the inclusion of not just one, but two Cortex-X4 high-performance cores. MediaTek is taking a page out of Qualcomm‘s playbook here. The leak doesn’t reveal everything so we’re left speculating about the clock speeds for each core cluster or whether MediaTek will bless us with the latest Cortex-A cores.
Let’s not forget the GPU because we could see the successor to the Immortalis G715, perhaps the Arm Immortalis G720. MediaTek’s decision to go with two Cortex-X4 cores raises some questions about thermals. More cores mean more heat, and MediaTek will need to work some magic to keep power consumption in check. Clock adjustments and a clever uarch redesign may be on the cards to ensure optimal workload distribution.
Just like a dynamic duo, the MediaTek Dimensity 9300 will likely come alongside the Vivo X100 series in late 2023. MediaTek’s Dimensity 9300 is gearing up to take the mobile chip world by storm. The impressive CPU layout, the inclusion of Cortex-X4 cores, and the tantalizing GPU secret will be intense and exciting.
