With 5G technology gaining pace in the market, companies are working hard to develop it further to offer customers stable and super-fast network connections. In keeping up with the development, Taiwan-based chipmakers MediaTek today announced their new 5G-based modem with support for both mmWave and Sub-6 GHz 5G network.

Apart from these, the M80 comes with the company’s 5G UltraSave technologies, on top of a power-conserving single-chip design, that enhances the chip’s power-saving capabilities. It also integrates the company’s UltraSave Network Environment Detection and UltraSave OTA Content Awareness technologies to “dynamically adjust power configuration and operating frequency based on the network environment”.

Moreover, there is the company’s Dynamic Bandwidth Part (BWP) technology that optimizes the use of bandwidth to support light or heavy data requests. Lastly, the M80 will be able to remain powered in connected standby even when there is no data-related activity as it features Connected Mode DRX (C-DRX) technology.
