MediaTek took a gamble with its flagship Dimensity 9300 by configuring the chipset with four Cortex-X4 Prime CPU cores and four Cortex-A720 Performance CPU cores. There were no low-power Efficiency CPU cores employed by the Dimensity 9300 which also features the Arm Immortalis G720 GPU. The Dimensity 9300 application processor (AP) is powering the vivo X100 series and manufacturers are also using the chip to power flagship tablets such as the upcoming vivo Pad 3.

The Dimensity 9400 SoC will be the first chipset to be manufactured using TSMC’s 3nm process node. To be more specific, the Dimensity 9400 will be made using TSMC’s N3E second-generation 3nm node. MediaTek CEO Rick Tsai said last month that the Dimensity 9400 AP will have AI capabilities that will rival other chipsets.
