MediaTek Dimensity 9500 will cross the 4 GHz threshold

MediaTek continues to take innovative steps in chip technology with the Dimensity series. The company continued the all-big core processor architecture used in the Dimensity 9300 model with the Dimensity 9400 and kept the same 1+3+4 core design. However, according to new information shared by the well-known technology analyst Digital Chat Station, a significant design change is being made with MediaTek Dimensity 9500.

Allegedly, Dimensity 9500 will switch to 2+6 core architecture. This build will include two Cortex-X930 “Travis” main cores and six Cortex-A730 “Gelas” performance cores. It is worth remembering that a similar 2 + 6 core layout is used in Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite chip.

One of the most striking features of the Dimensity 9500 will be the clock speed of the main cores, which can go up to 4 GHz. This is a first for MediaTek and raises the performance expectations of the chip considerably.

Dimensity 9500 will be produced with TSMC’s N3P (3nm) manufacturing process. While this process promises to increase energy efficiency, it is stated that the chip will use ARM’s Scalable Matrix Extension (SME) technology. SME technology has the potential to provide higher performance, especially in multi-threaded operations.

These developments show that the Dimensity 9500 will be assertive not only in terms of high speed but also in terms of energy efficiency and all-round performance.

When will MediaTek Dimensity 9500 be introduced?

MediaTek introduced Dimensity 9400 last October. In this context, the announcement of Dimensity 9500 is expected to take place in the next few months. However, an exact date has not been announced yet.

With this new architecture in the Dimensity series, MediaTek aims to raise the bar even further in terms of both performance and efficiency. It is followed with curiosity how Dimensity 9500 will shape the competition.
