MediaTek has added another 5G mobile chipset to its Dimensity line with the launch of its new Dimensity 1300 SoC. The chipset comes as a successor to last year’s Dimensity 1200 chipset and is based on the same 6nm architecture from TSMC. It is an octa-core processor and comes with a few significant upgrades over its predecessor. Let’s take a quick look at the details below.
The new MediaTek Dimensity 1300 SoC comes with eight cores, including four ARM Cortex-A78. Among these, there is an “Ultra” core that is clocked at 3GHz, while the other three are “Super” cores clocked up to 2.6GHz. The chipset also comes with four Cortex-A55 efficiency cores that are clocked up to 2GHz. For graphical performance, the processor comes with a nine-core ARM Mali-G77 MC9 GPU.
The new Dimensity 1300 SoC also comes with a six-core APU 3.0 to provide improved AI capabilities. Furthermore, the chipset supports the company’s Imagiq Camera, which offers improved low-light image capture and 40% greater dynamic range in 4K HDR video capture than a standard 4K HDR video. As for the display, there’s support for up to a 168Hz refresh rate, a maximum screen resolution of 2520 x 1080 pixels, and MiraVision enhanced video playback.
