MediaTek had just launched its latest and greatest flagship processors for smartphones earlier this week. The new chip in question is dubbed the Dimensity 9000 SoC, which will power a number of upcoming high end smartphones next year. Now, the company has officially shown off the benchmarking results of this chip, which show some interesting results.

The benchmarks were shared through a new video that was posted on MediaTek’s Weibo (a Chinese microblogging website). Looking at these tests, the Taiwanese chipmaker puts its newly launched Dimensity 9000 chip through a number of major benchmarking platforms like AnTuTu, GeekBench, PCMark, and others. In AntuTu (V9.0.7), the flagship mobile processor managed to a get a score of 1,017,488, which is quite close to the current top end Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 from Qualcomm, which also scored a similar results in previous benchmark reports.

However on GeekBench 5, the Dimensity 9000 managed to score 1273 points on single core test and 4324 points on the multi core test. While the single core performance is capable, the real winner is the multi core results, which best even the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, which has been seen with scores around the 3,800 and 3,900 range. Moving on to PCMark, MediaTek put its new chipset through the Work 3.0 performance test, with it achieving a score of 17,573. This is also higher than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1’s 16,858 score that was spotted in a benchmark result earlier this month.

In other words, the Dimensity 9000 SoC is more than capable of holding its own against Qualcomm in the flagship segment as well. Traditionally, MediaTek chips were known for its affordability in entry level handsets. But now, the company has been pushing the boundaries and have expanded to include even the mid range and flagship segments as well. While Qualcomm’s Snapdragon was previously known as the top pick for various flagships phones, Dimensity chips have slowly been eating away at its market share. The latest benchmarks also showcase the growing capabilities of MediaTek’s mobile chips that will power upcoming flagship Redmi K50, OPPO Find X, and other flagship series devices in 2022.

A new benchmarking result has just showcased some interesting information regarding the upcoming MediaTek Dimensity 9000 SoC. The chip managed to easily outclass almost every other chipset in the high end smartphone market, and even managed to achieve a score many times higher than others in some tests.

According to data from AI Benchmark, the Dimensity 9000 chipset beats every other chipset in almost every test. These results for the latest flagship chipsets were obtained with the AI Benchmark V5 Preview. In these tests, the Taiwanese chipmaker’s upcoming high end chip was pit against notable contenders like Google Tensor, Exynos 2100, HiSilicon Kirin 9000, Snapdragon 888, and even other Dimensity chips.

While the Dimensity 9000 lead the list in most categories the most notable achievement was its AI Score. Looking at the results, the new chipst easily outperformed its rival by a large margin. With a score of 692.5 on AI scores, it was 2.7 times higher than the Google Tensor, 3.7 times higher than the Exynos 2100, 3.9 times higher than the Kirin 9000, and a whopping 4.2 times higher than the Snapdragon 888.

While these results look good on paper, average users might be hard pressed to see the difference in performance based on just AI related tests. As of right now, this aspect helps in areas like face recognition, photography, AR, voice recognition, smart voice assistants, and more. In other words, it doesn’t mean that the chip is faster in terms of computing, but “smarter” in terms of AI based tasks.

Qualcomm has confirmed that its next-gen flagship mobile SoC will be called Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. The American chipmaker has even revealed that this silicon will be officially announced on November 30. Ahead of that, the chipset gets benchmarked on AnTuTu with over a million points.

The upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 has become the first Qualcomm mobile SoC to cross 1 million points (10,35,020 points) on AnTuTu Benchmark. This information comes from a screenshot shared by a Weibo profile called 科技晚8点. Unfortunately, the picture does not show the breakdown of the score in different categories. 

It is worth noting that even the newly unveiled MediaTek Dimensity 9000 SoC scores over a million points (10,07,396 points) on AnTuTu Benchmark. However, it’s not as high as that of the yet-to-be-announced Snapdragon silicon. For comparison, last-gen Qualcomm and MediaTek chipsets can score around 850K (Snapdragon 888) and 690K (Dimensity 1200) respectively.

Though there’s still a performance difference between the two, they are better than their predecessors in terms of scores. Anyway, at the end of the day, benchmarks only tell half the story. The real-world performance depends on the smartphone’s hardware and software optimizations.
