3According to the leaker, the Dimensity 9400, identified with the MT6991 model number, will offer impressive energy efficiency. It uses TSMC’s second-generation N3 process and features a CPU configuration of 1 x Cortex-X5 super core, 3 x Cortex-X4 cores, and 4 x Cortex-A7 cores.

Currently, the Cortex-X5 super core runs at approximately 3.4GHz, but the final frequency might increase to compete with other high-frequency chips. The final performance will be revealed in October, indicating that the chip will be unveiled in the said month.

According to TSMC, their 3nm process technology represents a significant advancement following the 5nm process technology. It stands as the industry’s most advanced process technology, featuring superior PPA (power, performance, and area) and transistor technology.

The Vivo X100 and X100 Pro, which were announced in October 2023, were the world’s first phones powered by the Dimensity 9300 chipset. Therefore, it is likely that the Vivo X200 and X200 Pro could be the first smartphones to come equipped with the Dimensity 9400 SoC.

A recent report claimed that the Oppo Find X8 featuring the Dimensity 9400 will also be unveiled in October. The X200 and the Find X8 are expected to compete with the Xiaomi 15, which is likely to break cover as the first-ever Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 phone in October.

At present, there is no concrete information about the specifications of the Vivo X200 series. Hopefully, more details will be revealed in the coming days.
