This fall, Taiwanese chipmaker MediaTek will unveil its new flagship Dimensity 9500 processor, which will compete with Qualcomm‘s Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 chip, and more and more information is emerging about it.
For example, yesterday the MediaTek Dimension 9500 (internal marking MT6993) was noticed in the database of the well-known Geekbench test package, where it showed a not particularly impressive result of 15717 points in the OpenCL discipline.
This figure is even lower than that of last year’s Dimensity 9400, but the testing was clearly carried out on still raw debugging software, but the technical specifications of the Dimensity 9500, which were determined by Geekbench, are very interesting.
To be more precise, it is part of the Dimensity 9500, which has the architecture 1+3+4 , includes four X-cores and a quartet of high-performance Cortex-A7xx class cores. The core frequencies of the tested device reached 3.23 GHz, 3.03 GHz and 2.23 GHz, respectively, but for the final version, for sure, they will be noticeably higher.
As for the graphics controller, it was identified as an Arm Mali-G1-Ultra with 12 cores. At the same time, the G1-Ultra model is very unexpected, but considering that the previous two generations of Mali graphics were named G720 and G925, respectively, more significant changes can be expected.
