Yesterday, Taiwanese chipmaker MediaTek announced its updated flagship Dimensity 9400+ processor, which is an improved version of the Dimensity 9400 chip.
The key change was the frequency of the Arm Cortex-X925 super core, increased from 3.62 GHz to 3.73 GHz, and the second notable innovation was the improvement in GPS navigation, which now starts 33% faster without cellular coverage.
The MediaTek Dimensity 9400+ includes the same 12-core Arm Immortalis-G925 graphics processor, while the MediaTek Imagiq 1090 signal processor remains in place, allowing for recording HDR video over the entire zoom range.
The new MediaTek Dimensity 9400+ chipset is manufactured using the 3nm process technology of the second generation at TSMC facilities.
As a result, the super-powerful Arm Cortex-X925 core runs at a clock frequency of up to 3.73 GHz, three Cortex-X4 cores have a frequency of 3.30 GHz, and the Cortex—A720 quartet has 2.4 GHz.
The MediaTek NPU 890 neural unit has improved performance compared to the previous generation chip and now supports a wider range of large language models.
The Dimensity 9400+ also supports dual-band Wi-Fi 7 with five streams, Bluetooth 6.0, LPDDR5X RAM up to 10.7 Gbps, UFS 4.0 flash drives and displays with a resolution of up to 3440 × 1440 pixels.
Interestingly, the Dimensity 9400+ chipset allows you to establish direct Bluetooth connections between smartphones at a distance of up to 10 km, which is 6.6 times more than the Dimensity 9400.
