For a long time, there were reports that MediaTek was developing an overclocked version of its Dimensity 9200 chipset. However, until now, it had only been a rumor, with no official confirmation. Finally, this query has been resolved, as MediaTek has officially announced its upcoming chipset.
This morning, MediaTek officially announced that the Dimensity 9200+ chipset will be launched on May 10th in an upcoming event. Apart from this, the official announcement didn’t include any additional details.
However, from the chipset’s name, we can conclude that the Dimensity 9200+ would be an overclocked version of the Dimensity 9200. The core architecture and other specifications are expected to be the same, with the only expected difference being the core frequency.
The Dimensity 9200 is based on TSMC’s 2nd-generation 4nm+ manufacturing process and consists of the following cores: 1x Cortex-X3 ultra core at 3.05GHz, 3x Cortex-A715 performance cores at 2.85GHz, and 4x Cortex-A510 energy-efficient cores at 1.8GHz. The chipset also features a Mali-G715 MC11 GPU at 981MHz.
As previously reported, the Dimensity 9200+ is expected to be featured in the iQOO Neo8 and ASUS ROG Phone 7D. Many other smartphone manufacturers are also expected to use this chipset in their upcoming smartphones.
Currently, the chipset’s competitor is Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. However, Qualcomm is expected to release an overclocked version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 in the coming months.
