MediaTek’s Latest Dimensity Processors Deliver Premium AI Smarts At Mid-Range Prices

MediaTek has just announced the new Dimensity 7400 and Dimensity 6400 processors. The Dimensity 7400 is also available as the Dimensity 7400X, and both of these integrate MediaTek’s NPU 6.0 which provides a 15% upgrade in performance over the Dimensity 7300. This allows the new processors to provide premium multimedia capabilities with an Imagiq 950 high-end signal processor.
Powering the Dimensity 7400 is an octa-core CPU, with 4x ARM Cortex-A78 cores, operating at up to 2.6Ghz, 4x ARM Cortex-A55 cores that operate at up to 2.0GHz, and the ARM Mali-G615 GPU. This is using TSMC’s 4nm process node, making the Dimensity 7400 and Dimensity 7400X use between 14% and 36% less power when gaming compared to competitive chipsets.
The Dimensity 7400X is for flip phones, and it does support dual display flip phones (think, Motorola Razr and Galaxy Z Flip). It also has the 5G R16 Modem with 3CC carrier aggregation, as well as Tri-band WiFi 6E support.
Dimensity 6400 debuts as an affordable 5G chipset
MediaTek is also debuting the Dimensity 6400 processor, which joins the Dimensity 6000 series of chipsets. This is a lineup that offers affordable 5G connectivity, making it more accessible to people around the globe. The Dimensity 6400 is an octa-core CPU that has 2x ARM Cortex-A76 cores that clock in at up to 2.5GHz and 6x ARM Cortex-A55 cores that are up to 2.0GHz. There is also the ARM Mali-G57 MC2 GPU.
Dimensity 6400 is built on TSMC’s 6nm process node, and it too runs very efficiently. MediaTek says that it will use up to 19% less power when gaming compared to competitive chipsets. The 6400 also includes the MediaTek Bluetooth WiFi HyperCoex technology, which is able to reduce gaming latency by up to 90%, Release 16 Sub-6 5G Modem supports 2CC-CA for better connectivity, and up to 55% faster downlink and 18% faster uplink compared to its competitors.
MediaTek says that smartphones with the Dimensity 6400, 7400 and 7400X are expected to be available starting in Q1 2025, which ends very soon. So these devices should be right around the corner, likely being announced at MWC next week.
