SoC is the heart and brain of a mobile phone, and the foundation of its performance. However, if you want to fully utilize the performance of SoC, you also need memory and flash memory with faster read and write speeds.

As one of the mainstream SoCs in the flagship market, the MediaTek Dimensity 9300, with an AnTuTu score of over 2 million, has left a deep impression on consumers. As the second half of the year approaches, some news about the MediaTek Dimensity 9400 has also been revealed. For example, the AnTuTu V10 version has a score of 3.45 million, an increase of more than 50% year-on-year compared to the previous generation. More importantly, in addition to its excellent performance, the Dimensity 9400 has also added support for Samsung's LPDDR5X.

On July 16, Samsung Semiconductor officially announced that the LPDDR5X DRAM with a speed of up to 10.7Gbps has been verified on MediaTek's next-generation flagship mobile platform (Dimensity 9400) to be released in the second half of the year.

According to information released by Samsung, this LPDDR5X has three major advantages:First, the industry's fastest speed, up to 10.7Gbps data transmission speed, can assist the SoC in processing various tasks and information on the mobile phone, improving operational smoothness.

Second, while the performance was improved by 25%, the power consumption of Samsung's 10.7Gbps LPDDR5X was also reduced by 25%.After entering the 5G era, consumers have been more sensitive to the battery life of mobile phones, especially when the parameters of various hardware continue to improve, the energy consumption of SoC, screen, speakers, and even camera modules are increasing.

While Samsung's 10.7Gbps LPDDR5X significantly improves performance, it can also effectively reduce energy consumption and improve the battery life of mobile phones to a certain extent.

The first thing a flagship SoC must do is to maximize performance. All generations of MediaTek Dimensity flagship SoCs support the latest top-level memory specifications, and Samsung's latest masterpiece 10.7Gbps LPDDR5X has been tested on Dimensity 9400.

The pursuit of performance has always been in MediaTek's blood. In order to improve the performance of SoC, Dimensity 9300 chose the "all-big core" architecture design. Now, MediaTek's upcoming next-generation flagship SoC Dimensity 9400 will continue the all-big core design, including not only one Cortex-X925 super core with a frequency of up to 3.4GHz, but also three Cortex-X4 big cores and four Cortex-A720 big cores.

The all-large core design significantly improves the performance of mobile phones. In addition to the high score of 3.45 million in AnTuTu, the Dimensity 9400 also achieved a good score of 2776 points in single-core and 11739 points in multi-core in the GeekBench 6 test. Compared with the previous generation, the single-core score increased by about 23%, and the multi-core score increased by about 52%.

Generally speaking, when chip performance is poor, each generation can maintain a high improvement rate, but after years of development, the running score of flagship SoC has risen from hundreds of thousands to more than one million points. In theory, "squeezing toothpaste" is the norm for upgrading mobile phone chips.However, judging from the improvements in each generation of MediaTek's Dimensity flagship SoC, MediaTek has always refused to "squeeze the toothpaste" and has made it its mission to improve performance and bring better experience to consumers.

According to MediaTek's chip release rules, Dimensity 9400 is expected to be released at the end of the year, so stay tuned.
