A Taiwanese chip manufacturer has introduced a high-end processor, Dimensity 1200, which is claimed to be able to streamline smartphone performance and performance in the 5G era. Not only 5G, the Dimensity 1200 has increasingly improved performance here and there, making it a processor for advanced smartphones.
No wonder this processor is entrusted to be able to spur the performance of flagship smartphones. The reason is, in addition to 5G there are also improvements in AI capabilities, photography or cameras, and very high gaming performance. Here are some reliable features in Mediatek Dimensity 1200.
1. Ultra-fast Performance
The Dimensity 1200 is claimed to have ultra-fast performance thanks to 6nm technology, making it the fastest smartphone processor in its class. This octa-core processor consists of one ultra-core (Arm Cortex-A78 core – 3GHz), three super-cores (Arm Cortex-A78 – 2.6GHz), and four other cores (Arm Cortex-A55 – 2GHz). The 3GHz ultra-core processor delivers 22 percent faster CPU performance, and up to 25 percent less power.
The chipset also supports quad-channel memory and dual-channel UFS 3.1 storage with data throughput of up to 1.7GB/s. This means that this chip will not only result in faster data transfers but also faster application launches, lag-free performance and smooth multi-tasking.
2. 5G For All
The chipset has been tested and certified by TUV Rheinland in 72 scenarios, including 5G data rates, network performance, power consumption, performance and more. Thanks to special upgrades like 5G Lift Mode and 5G HSR Mode, the chipset ensures a seamless 5G experience anywhere.
The chipset also provides power-saving improvements to the battery, which ensures the smartphone battery lasts all day, even when operating on 5G networks around the clock. The MediaTek Dimensity 1200 is also the first chip to support dual SIM-5G (5G SA + 5G SA) capabilities. Performance across both 5G is also more consistent with the best audio and video calling experience across both SIMs.
3. Improved AI
In a way, the Dimensity 1200 is a Mediatek processor with the fastest and most advanced AI technology ever. This is possible thanks to the six-core APU 3.0. This chipset reduces latency and improves power efficiency making it reliable for multi-tasking devices. That is, the increase in performance reaches 12.5 percent compared to the previous generation.
4. Cool Camera Capture
You could say, the Mediatek Dimensity 1200 is able to unlock all the camera capabilities on a smartphone. Allows smartphone users to record videos with 4K HDR format and 40 percent better dynamic-range. Smartphone cameras can also take pictures with resolutions up to 200MP thanks to a 5-core ISP. Night Shooting Mode is also faster and gets a performance boost in low light. Thanks to the new AI enhancements, users also get better camera performance in AI-based features like AI Panorama Night Shot, simultaneous AINR + HDR capabilities and more.
5. The Most Qualified Game Technology
The gaming technology on this chipset is equipped with HyperEngine 3.0 which is believed to be able to improve the gaming experience using a smartphone. The new PQ Engine 3.0 enables ray tracing in mobile games. So, if your favorite game supports ray tracing, the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 will let you experience games with realistic shadows and lifelike reflections.
HyperEngine 3.0 also brings increased power efficiency to better 5G performance while gaming. There’s also support for Bluetooth 5.2 and LC3 which results in ultra-low latency for the audio experience. That means when using Bluetooth headphones in playing games, there is guaranteed to be no audio lag.
6. High Refresh Rate
The MediaTek Dimensity 1200 processor supports high-refresh displays up to 168Hz. This means users will get a smoother gaming experience, including the speed with which they operate on screen UIs, web pages, apps and more.
7. Exciting Entertainment Experience
For those who don’t know, Mediatek has a technology called MiraVision, which allows the device to have an HDR display with cinema-grade visuals. MediaTek Dimensity 1200 brings many improvements to MiraVision to enhance the movie viewing experience. First, the popular AI SDR to HDR converter is enhanced by dynamic frame-per-frame image quality tuning which results in better and more consistent conversions. Second, the new AI-ClearStreaming technology improves image quality in video conferencing and live streaming applications. This feature is especially important in an era when most of us work from home and spend most of our time in online meetings and conferences. There’s also improved HDR10+ video playback along with AV1 video decoding. Even upscale old HDR10 videos to HDR10+ by adjusting each frame dynamically. All of these features work together to provide an engaging cinema experience.
