MediaTek Dimensity 9300 is the first flagship smartphone chip to feature all big core CPU design. It was announced in November 2023 and promises significant performance and efficiency improvements over its predecessor.
The 8-core flagship chip has a peak CPU frequency of 3.25GHz and a 12-core Immortalis-G720 high-performance GPU to handle gaming and other graphics-related activities. To see how the Dimensity 9300 stacks up against its competitors, we ran it through multiple benchmarks to get some numbers.
[Note: The following benchmark tests were conducted on the Vivo X100 Pro (powered by MediaTek Dimensity 9300).]
MediaTek Dimensity 9300 AnTuTu score
AnTuTu is a popular benchmarking tool that evaluates a device’s performance by running a series of tests across multiple components, including CPU, GPU, memory, and UX (user experience). The overall score represents the combined strength of these individual tests.
On AnTuTu (version 10), the Dimensity 9300-powered scored over 2 million AnTuTu points. GPU is the biggest contributor here, with a 41% share, followed by CPU (24%), memory (19%), and UX (16%).
Here’s a detailed look at the benchmark scores:
| AnTuTu (v10) | 2,039,581 |
| CPU | 496,997 |
| GPU | 829,437 |
| Memory | 380,264 |
| UX | 332,882 |
MediaTek Dimensity 9300 Geekbench score
Geekbench is a widely used benchmarking tool for measuring the CPU capability of a device. It performs real-world and synthetic tests, such as image processing, machine learning, and file compression, to assess how well a processor handles various workloads.
On Geekbench (version 6.4), the Vivo X100 Pro (powered by Dimensity 9300) has scored 2,197 points in the single-core test and 7,389 points in the multi-core test. These are excellent numbers for a flagship chip.
| Geekbench (v6.4) | |
| Single core | 2,197 |
| Multi core | 7,389 |
MediaTek Dimensity 9300 3DMark score
We also tested the Dimensity 9300 on 3DMark, a widely used gaming benchmark tool that measures how well a device performs under prolonged heavy graphical workloads.
Here are the benchmark scores:
| Wild Life Stress Test | |
| Best loop score | 16,678 |
| Lowest loop score | 9,261 |
| Stability | 55.4% |
