If the rumors are true, MediaTek’s latest flagship chipset is going to be the Dimensity 9500, which has appeared on Geekbench for the first time under the model number MT6993. The configuration of the new chipset has been revealed in a benchmark listing spotted by trusted Chinese tech blogger Digital Chat Station.
The benchmark listing for the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 reveals that the processor will feature a full-core CPU layout based on Arm’s new Cortex-X930 ultra-core architecture. It features one ultra-core clocked at 3.23GHz (Travis), three performance cores at 3.03GHz (Alto), and four efficiency cores at 2.23GHz (Zelus). For graphics, the chipset features a Mali-G1 Ultra MC12 GPU, according to DCS.
The GPU department reveals a new Immortalis-Drage architecture with improved ray tracing and efficien
cy, although the current GPU clock is limited to 1 MHz, which limits its initial benchmark score to 15,717. MediaTek is expected to finalize the GPU performance next month. The report claims that the new chip has surpassed the
4 million mark in the powerful AnTuTu benchmark.
The processor supports 4x LPDDR5X RAM at 10,667 MBps and UFS 4.1 storage with a 4-lane interface. It packs 16 MB of L3 cache and 10 MB of system-level cache for improved multitasking and data throughput.
The Dimensity 9500 is expected to be officially announced in September, with the Oppo Find X9 series and Vivo X300 series likely to be among the first smartphones to ship with the new chip.
