Earlier this week we reported that the MediaTek Dimensity 9000 SoC is expected to launch in the first half of 2022 and will be featured in upcoming Redmi and OPPO devices. Now, a new report has emerged giving a more precise time frame for the SoC launch as well as the first device that is expected to come with the Dimensity 9000 chip.
According to a report by ITHome, MediaTek will be launching their Dimensity 9000 flagship SoC sometime in the month of February-March. OPPO’s upcoming flagship is expected to be the first device to house the new SoC.
Previous leaks have revealed that OPPO is working on its next flagship dubbed the Find X4 Pro; however, the upcoming flagship might be named the OPPO Find X5 Pro due to number 4 being considered an unlucky number in China
OPPO Find X5 Pro Specifications (rumored)
So far, the rumored specs of the upcoming OPPO Find X5 Pro reveal that the phone will come with a 6.7-inch AMOLED LTPO 2.0 display that offers a Quad HD+ resolution of 1440 x 3216 pixels and a 120Hz refresh rate.
The rear camera setup of the device is fitted with a 50-megapixel Sony IMX766 primary camera with OIS support. It is coupled with a 50-megapixel ultrawide lens and a 13-megapixel tertiary camera. For selfies, the display punch-hole of the X5 Pro will house a 32-megapixel Sony IMX709 camera.
It will be packed with a 5,000mAh battery that supports 80W fast charging and 50W wireless charging. The device is likely to run on the latest Android 12 with ColorOS 12 on top. For security, it will feature Goodix G7 in-screen fingerprint scanner.
Earlier reports state that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC will be powering the device along with OPPO’s MariSilicon X chip. However, if the latest leaks are to be believed, the OPPO X5 Pro might ditch the SD 8 Gen 1 in favor of the upcoming Dimensity 9000 chipset.
The MediaTek Dimensity 9000 SoC adopts the combination of TSMC’s 4nm process + Armv9 architecture and has a high-performance Cortex-X2 super core. The SoC also consists of three Arm Cortex-A710 cores clocked at 2.85GHz and four Arm Cortex-A510 energy-efficient cores. Additionally, the Dimensity 9000 supports LPDDR5X memory.
