Today, MediaTek launched its latest flagship 5G chipset the Dimensity 1200 SoC in the Indian market at the 8th MediaTek Technology Diaries virtual session. As we know that that company already announced Dimensity 1200 earlier this year in China. MediaTek also confirmed that realme is the first smartphone brand to feature the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 processor in India. This will be the Realme GT Neo smartphone that was launch last month in China.
The Dimensity 1200 based on the 6nm process with an octa-core CPU designed where an ultra-core Arm Cortex-A78 clocked that runs up to 3GHz for extreme performance along with three Arm Cortex-A78 super cores clocked up to 2.6GHz and four Arm Cortex-A55 efficiency cores clocked at 2GHz. The performance of the CPU is up to 22% faster and 25% more power-efficiency as compared to the previous generation. It has a nine-core Mali-G77 GPU that increases by 13% in performance and a six-core MediaTek APU 3.0.
The Dimensity 1200 supports up to ultra-fast 168Hz refresh rates and featured MediaTek’s HyperEngine 3.0 gaming technologies, which includes 5G call and data concurrency for more reliable connectivity, plus multi-touch boost touchscreen responsiveness. The new chipsets also support ray tracing in mobile games and artificial reality applications for more realistic visuals, along with super hotspot power savings which let users go longer in between charges.
It supports 5G standalone and non-standalone architectures with True Dual SIM 5G (5G SA + 5G SA). The Dimensity 1200 SoC supports 200MP photos, has five-core HDR-ISP, 4K HDR video capture. The chipset support AI camera features including AI-Panorama Night Shot, AI Multi-Person Bokeh, AI noise reduction (AINR), and HDR capabilities. The chipset also supports new AI-enhanced video playback that comes with AI SDR-to-HDR.
