MediaTek is gearing up to launch new processors from its Dimensity 9000 and Dimensity 8000 series of processors. However, prior to any Dimensity powered smartphone’s release, a Dimensity 8000 series chip has been spotted on AnTuTu.
In the known benchmarking platform, the new chipset can be spotted with an impressive score of around 820,000 points. While there are more powerful chipsets, the Dimensity 8000 series is positioned under its top end flagship Dimensity 9000 series. Yet, this chipset managed to outperform Qualcomm’s 2021 flagship processor, the Snapdragon 888 SoC. As of right now, the Snapdragon 888 SoC scores around the 800,000 marks on AnTuTu. Previously, we had even reported on the Dimensity 9000 reportedly beating the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 as well, so it seems that MediaTek’s next gen lineup is quite the contender in the mobile chipset market this year.
Furthermore, Dimensity 8000 powered phones might be a great choice for many, since they would offer great performance and would be relatively cheaper than flagship handsets as well. Notably, the new Dimensity 8000 and Dimensity 9000 chips are also designed to be power efficient without compromising on performance. This year, various brands are expected to feature this chipset, including the likes of Oppo, Vivo, Xiaomi, Honor, and other brands.
Keep in mind that this is still a synthetic benchmark and does not reflect on actual real world performance in areas like gaming. This benchmark was also shared by known tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo (a Chinese microblogging website), meaning, its not an official test from the brand either and is likely an early benchmark. So stick around for more as we will be providing more updates when additional information is available regarding this matter.
