MediaTek Launches Flagship Dimensity 9200 Chipset
MediaTek today launched the Dimensity 9200, its latest 5G chipset powering the next era of flagship smartphones. Boasting extreme performance and intelligent power efficiency, the new SoC brings immersive all-day gaming experiences, ultra-sharp image capturing and support for both mmWave 5G and sub-6 GHz connectivity to consumers around the globe.
"MediaTek's Dimensity 9200 combines ultimate performance with significant power savings, extending battery life and keeping smartphones cool," said JC Hsu, Corporate Vice President and General Manager of MediaTek's wireless communications business unit at MediaTek. "With notably brighter image capturing and improved gaming speeds, along with the latest display enhancements, the Dimensity 9200 will bring new possibilities for next-gen smartphones that come in a variety of stylish and foldable form factors."
The Dimensity 9200 is the first smartphone chip to integrate an Arm Cortex X3 with operating speeds over 3 GHz, and the first featuring the Arm Immortalis-G715 GPU with a hardware-based ray tracing engine. The chipset also packs MediaTek's HyperEngine 6.0 Gaming Technology for fast, fluid action so gamers can immerse themselves in every scene, in epic detail. With support for extreme performance gaming displays, eye-catching resolution and extended foldable designs, the chipset's MediaTek MiraVision 890 display technology brings content to life.
Leading in power efficiency with its eXtreme Power Saving Technology for AI-noise reduction and AI-super resolution tasks, the Dimensity 9200 provides up to 30% power savings with AI-NR, and 45% power savings with AI-SR in all visual applications. The chipset's sixth generation AI Processing Unit (APU 690) enhancements include up to 35% faster performance in ETHZ 5.0 benchmark compared to the fifth generation APU.
The Dimensity 9200 is the first Wi-Fi 7-ready smartphone platform, supporting up to 6.5 Gbps data rates. The chipset integrates an advanced, built-in 5G modem with AI for faster network searching, 5G connection recovery out of dead zones, and other intelligent connectivity enhancements. It also delivers seamless 5G experiences by fluidly switching between long-reach sub-6 GHz and super-fast mmWave connections simultaneously. Users can connect everywhere thanks to MediaTek's Bluetooth and Wi-Fi coexistence technology, allowing Wi-Fi, Bluetooth low energy (LE) audio and wireless peripherals like gamepads to connect at the same time without interference. Additionally, the chipset's dual antenna system intelligently switches between extreme performance and ultra-low power antennas based on real-time user needs.
The chipset's Imagiq 890 image signal processor supports captivating capture, whether users are in low light, bright light, or anywhere in between. Sporting the first native support for RGBW sensors, smartphones powered by the Dimensity 9200 can avoid Bayer conversion, providing up to 34% more power savings than competing solutions. Additionally, users can create better cinematic videos and enjoy superior AI motion unblur technology thanks to MediaTek's fast, accurate AI-NR photo capture technology. For video captures, the Video Stream Engine fuses the chipset's APU and ISP; this allows device makers to add unique AI-video enhancements that are notably faster and more power efficient.
Other key features of the MediaTek Dimensity 9200 include:
- 2nd Generation TSMC 4 nm process: 1x Arm Cortex-X3 at 3.05 GHz, 3x Arm Cortex-A715 at 2.85 GHz, and 4x Arm Cortex-A510 at 1.8 GHz, optimized to improve power efficiency in combination with MediaTek's innovative thermal package design that keeps smartphones cool.
- Cutting-edge display technology: Supports Full HD+ up to 240 Hz, WHQD up to 144 Hz and 5K (2.5Kx2) up to 60 Hz, with adaptive refresh rate technology for a smooth user experience.
- AI visual semantic display: Optimizes picture quality with multi-person segmentation and multi-layer color management per scene.
- MediaTek AI-SR/MEMC: Provides best-in-class video streaming.
- MediaTek Smart Blulight Defender: Ensures a more comfortable viewing experience.
- Bluetooth LE Audio-ready technology: Brings best-in-class audio latency with Dual-Link True Wireless Stereo Audio for incredible sound quality.
- LPDDR5X with support for up to 8533 Mbps memory: Delivers the fastest smartphone memory.
- UFS 4.0 with Multi-Circular Queue (MCQ): Provides each Cortex-A510 CPU core with direct access to storage, significantly boosting data transmission in multi-thread applications.
- Device makers can use MediaTek's Dimensity Open Resource Architecture (DORA) program to customize the Dimensity 9200 features for local markets, customer needs and smartphone requirements.
Smartphones powered by the Dimensity 9200 will be available in the market by end of 2022.

Cool, are they still cheating in benchmarks?

They are not designing the chipsets they license the arm architecture as well as many other chipsets and piggy back off international fair trade laws an contracts nor do they fab like tsmc.
Something some people thought hawawie was being propped up to funnel money off the new implementation of 5g. personally ive used mediatek there products are just not as good as qualcomm on samsung or tsmc they also not even as good as Samsung fab. have you tried any of there other products they all bad man low quality e-waste within the first year.
Basically, qualcomm holds the big contract with apple; the chinese market choose huawei and mediatek is a alternate brand for chinese market. Pretty sure its some seattle tech guys push it on the us market because they have holding on the brand. In the US, id rather have Texas instruments building my alternate chipsets or other US based Corporation that produce quality products and have in house fabs. i even had more fun fiddling with rockchip products but mediatek pushed them out of the mainstream media.

@pimpineasy well since mediatek's SOCs are behind snapdragon ones they are selling em for cheaper and they get implemented to the cheapest devices possible is not that the soc is bad persay (most likely the bottom tier ones are trash though ) is the whole making a phone as cheap as possible to make em ewaste ..... If you get their top soc and implemented it in a good balanced device it will be more than fine really

@Venix Mediatek is a subsidiary chipset for the seattle sell outs to funnel money off the chinese global markets segment and split huawei marketshare. Thats its goal not to be the best but to weaken USA manufacturing and fabrication while proping huawei as the better chipset.
When everyone is designing the same chipset off ARM and just ordering pallets from TSMC
they choose other companys to be prioritzed with its designs obviously apple quality and qualcomm ATI GPU proved to be the best choices. But now apple is trying to build its in house M1 an Arm will probably stay with Qualcomm that still has ATI graphics, Samsung equinox, and Google Tensor which was introduced to the market with the recent pixel launches.
Mediatek will just be the company to split hauwei market share. these are all ARM SOC with TSMC not a mediatek soc not a qualcomm get it? Thats why it wont magically be better then apple they can only use what got licensed to them and qualcomm has much better brand recognition globally an ATI fanboys.
This is why some folks supported the 5g hauwei embargos mediatek is trash tier stop gap company made of Seattle sell outs and no way should be a competitor against chinas chosen next gen 5g radio company or be in US Market at all with the fab companies we have here already.
I actually think its wack 100 they sell them in the US market in stores when you cant even get the flagship qualcommm devices from brands like miui, oppo, asus, nubia, ect.
To me they just fabless e-waste resellers of ARM and Realtek why cant i just buy those. i actually want new products not the same things with a fancy sticker that Seattle ccp sellouts think is the "future". How do you think Mediatek would fare in a free market? Instead of market manipulation it probably would be a flop.
Your bio says your from greece youd be better off having a company in greece licences a fabless company and sell ARM SOC to your people and the global market then to accept Mediatek as your low tier bargin soc. Then ill buy it cuz its greek and call it e-waste cuz its a clone but at least you upped your country GDP add jobs and put a greek product on the global trade. good luck with your enturpuner start up. invite me to a yatch party.

Why aren't these companies make a full performance product? We all know they do prototypes for themself (Qualcomm with Asus for example), but imagine if Mediatek is making limited phones with top notch things, like 240Hz display if they support it (like they mention here), a camera with maximum supported MPx, LPDDR5X with 8533MHz and so on
