MediaTek is said to debut the successor of the Dimensity 9000+ SoC called the Dimensity 9200 in November. The chipset will be MediaTek’s flagship, meant to go toe to toe with the upcoming Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2.
Previous reports state that the chipset will be based on TSMC’s 4nm process node and will likely use the same Cortex-A710 and Cortex-A510 cores as before. Ahead of the launch, an AnTuTu benchmark of an undisclosed smartphone running the Dimensity 9200 has emerged giving us a look at its performance.
Popular Weibo tipster DCS has shared a screenshot of a device running the Dimensity 9200 chipset. The chipset has managed a score of 1,266,102, which is quite impressive. It surpasses the performance of all the current-gen smartphones on the AnTuTu leader board, also beating out the ROG Phone 6D Ultimate, which has coveted the performance crown ever since its launch. For those unaware, the ROG Phone 6D Ultimate houses a Dimensity 9000+ chipset.
Taking a closer look at the performance numbers, the Dimensity 9200 outperforms the Dimensity 9000+ clad ROG Phone 6D Ultimate by around 12,000 points in the GPU test, however, the CPU test doesn’t show any improvements. Comparing to the best Snapdragon counterpart on the list, namely the ROG Phone 6 Pro which features the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset, the Dimensity 9200 edges it out in the CPU benchmark and convincingly beats it in the GPU test.
The image also reveals that the Dimensity 9200 chipset is rather cool as the temps hit a maximum 37-degree celsius during the benchmark. However, it is currently unclear as to what kind of cooling solution was used for this device. So, we will hold out judgment till independent testing is conducted.
