For flagship, premium mobile devices
MediaTek has officially unveiled the Dimensity 9500s and Dimensity 8500 mobile processors built for flagship and premium smartphones.
These latest platforms are meant to propel performance, gaming, and efficiency on higher-end mobile devices, while also introducing improvements in AI, imaging, wireless connectivity, and more.
Dimensity 9500s
The Dimensity 9500s adopts a flagship 3nm process and an All Big Core architecture. Its octa-core CPU utilizes one Cortex-X925 ultra core with up to 3.73GHz of clock speed, three Cortex-X4 premium cores, and four Cortex-A720 performance cores.
Together, the system empowers devices to fully unleash powerful performance while staying energy efficient.
Moreover, the Dimensity 9500s integrates the Immortalis-G925 GPU for a full-frame, immersive experience for heavy mobile games. This includes support for advanced ray tracing.
In addition, adaptive game technology 3.0 and frame technology 3.0 improve energy efficiency significantly to prolong battery life.
Meanwhile, the flagship NPU in the processor is optimized for generative reasoning and multi-modal models for a more powerful flagship edge camera and greater content generation capabilities.
The chip supports high-frequency functions like post-processing of live photos, AI photo editing, AI content summarization, and more.
Lastly, the Dimensity 9500s is equipped with an advanced MediaTek Imagiq image processor, which supports real-time 30fps motion tracking and 8K full-focus Dolby Vision HDR video recording.
Dimensity 8500
Equally energy efficient is the Dimensity 8500, which has a 4nm process and All Big Core CPU architecture.
This is composed of eight Cortex-A725 cores with a frequency up to 3.4GHz. The chip supports accurate scheduling technology and DDR5 memory with higher transmission speed so users can enjoy smooth and long battery life for daily apps and multitasking.
With an integrated Mali-G720 GPU, the Dimensity 8500’s peak performance is improved by 25% compared to the previous generation. And yet, its power consumption is reduced by 20%.
For gaming, the processor can bring players a refreshing experience with full frame stabilization, rapid loading, and high energy efficiency.
