MediaTek has been raining entry-level and mid-range chipsets since the beginning of this year. Adding to its ever-growing portfolio, the Taiwanese chipmaker announces helio G95 SoC as its newest offering. The firm markets this as its most powerful 4G silicon for smartphones. It will compete against Qualcomm Snapdragon 732G, which just went official yesterday.
The helio G95 is similar to its predecessor helio G90T is every way. The only difference is that the ARM Mali G76 3EEMC4 GPU present in the former is clocked at 900Mhz instead of 800MHz in the latter. Hence, it should theoretically offer slightly better gaming performance.
Apart from the above-mentioned dissimilarity, the new helio G95 is basically an helio G90T inside out. That means it is manufactured using the same 12nm process technology by TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company)
It includes an octa-core CPU consisting of 2 x Cortex-A76 cores clocked at 2.05GHz and 6 x Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 2GHz. Further, in the memory department, it can support up to 2 x LPDDR4x RAM clocked up to 2133MHz and 10GB in size. For storage, it can either paired with eMMC 5.1 or UFS 2.1.

Talking about cameras, it can support up to 64MP multi-camera setup and is capable of recording videos in up to 4K resolution at 30fps. As for the display, it can support panels of up to 2520 x 1080 resolution (FHD+) and 90Hz refresh rate.
On the connectivity front, the modem present in it supports 4G, VoLTE, ViLTE, VoWifi, and it also includes support for WiFi 5, Bluetooth 5.0, GNSS(Beidou, Galileo, Glonass, GPS) as well as FM Radio.
Additionally, the chip also comes with MediaTek HyperEngine gaming technology, which the company claims to offer better connectivity by using WiFi and LTE data connection at the same, in addition to better resource management and improved graphics.
That said, the newly launched MediaTek helio G95 will debut on realme 7, which will be unveiled on September 3 in India. Similarly, POCO X3 NFC which will go official next week on September 7 as the world’s first smartphone with its competitor Qualcomm Snapdragon 732G.
