There are a lot of titles where the gaming experience is unparalleled with a gaming controller. Surely, there are instances where a mouse excels but the multi-tasking of a controller is what makes it stand out. Thankfully, there are plenty of controllers available to choose from and this goes for most price ranges. The majority of gamers usually settle for a cheap one, which is why companies like Gamesir have introduced their brand new budget T7 Xbox wired controller. The Gamesir T7 brings an Xbox layout and a wired connection that works with several devices out of the box but […]

Samsung is said to make a monumental change to its Galaxy Tab S10 as far as the chipset selection goes because the ‘middle of the pack’ Galaxy Tab S10 Plus is said to be outfitted with MediaTek’s Dimensity 9300+ instead of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. This would be the first time the Korean giant would employ the Taiwanese fabless semiconductor manufacturer’s SoC in its premium tablet lineup, but what caused the company to make such a decision? According to one report, the ‘butterfly effect’ of rising Qualcomm chipset prices would be one of them. Dimensity 9300+ likely costs less […]
A few months remain until the Dimensity 9400 is unveiled, and MediaTek has officially announced the Dimensity 9300+, making it the more powerful variant of its 2023 flagship SoC, the Dimensity 9300. The Taiwanese fabless semiconductor manufacturer has improved upon its already impressive chipset, bringing various improvements to the table, which you will find out soon enough when we talk about the detailed specifications. TSMC’s third-generation 4nm process was used for the Dimensity 9300+, with the silicon designed for taxing on-device AI operations Like the Dimensity 9300, the Dimensity 9300+ features no efficiency cores, and its Cortex-X4 runs at a […]
The launch of the Dimensity 9300 has financially benefitted MediaTek immensely, as the Taiwanese fabless chipset manufacturer has stated that its flagship smartphone silicon revenue is up by 50 percent compared to 2023. The company’s CEO, Rick Tsai, expects annual revenue to increase by 14 to 16 percent, with its gross margin for the first quarter of 2024 standing tall at 52.4 percent, marking an increase of 4.1 percent compared to the Q4 2023 period. MediaTek’s quarterly profit was $4.35 billion, increasing by 22.9 percent, with the Chief Executive believing that smartphone shipments will reach 1.2 billion units in 2024 […]
The Dimensity 9300 has set the stage for MediaTek, howling that it is back in the premium Android smartphone segment, and it intends to make its rivals nervous with the Dimensity 9400 launch. With the exception of Google and Apple, the Taiwanese firm has signed on every other phone maker as its customer, but Vivo is rumored to want a first crack at the company’s flagship silicon, and it may have already secured the first batch for itself. A new report also compares the performance differences of the Dimensity 9400 with the Dimensity 9300, claiming a 20 percent improvement. Dimensity 9300 […]
MediaTek will likely stick with ARM’s CPU and GPU designs this year when it officially announces the Dimensity 9400. Alongside one Cortex-X5 and three Cortex-X4 cores that were previously reported to be a part of the new CPU cluster, one tipster claims that the upcoming flagship SoC will also feature the new ARM Immortalis-G900 series GPU. However, when it comes to a direct graphics performance comparison with the Dimensity 9300, one alleged test result shows a minor 10 percent difference. Tipster also shares the alleged Geekbench 6 multi-core score belonging to the Dimensity 9400; result is lower than the previous […]
MediaTek enjoyed a healthy revenue run thanks to the arrival of the Dimensity 9300. According to the latest data, the Taiwanese fabless chip maker’s flagship SoC contributed towards a 70 percent revenue growth last year, making it one of the most successful launches in the company’s history. MediaTek is now expected to launch the Dimensity 9400 in the fourth quarter of this year, and the shift towards a cutting-edge second-generation 3nm process should aid the company in repeating history, assuming the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 does not gain sufficient traction during this time. Overall, the Dimensity 9300 contributed towards more […]
For the rest of the year, more Android flagships with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and Dimensity 9300 will be found in a plethora of premium smartphones, but according to one tipster, companies are shifting towards a different strategy, which is equipping its less expensive handsets with the same SoCs. While this will hurt the manufacturer’s margins, it shows how eager these companies are to increase their global market share, even if the outcome negligibly rewards them. Mid-rangers with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and Dimensity 9300 chipsets rumored to arrive in H2 2024 On Weibo, tipster Digital Chat Station has put […]
Various Chinese smartphone makers will eventually move out of the local market and turn their attention overseas, starting with Europe, and many of these flagships feature MediaTek’s latest and greatest Dimensity 9300. With these launches, we can expect some heated competition for Apple and Qualcomm, as these handsets are not only attempting to take away the brand’s market share but also MediaTek’s aim to take away the chip dominance of its competitors. Vivo said to enter Europe and other countries with the X100 and X100 Pro, both flagships are powered by the Dimensity 9300 The X100 and X100 Pro headlined […]
MediaTek has managed to surprise its competitors with the Dimensity 9300, shifting to a new CPU cluster and GPU pairing that outpaces the top-tier competition. With chipset orders for the Taiwanese firm increasing, Morgan Stanley analysts state that the latest SoC is the most powerful in the market right now and will aid MediaTek in taking its global market share to new heights. A spike in Dimensity 9300 orders will allow MediaTek’s market share to rise up to 35 percent in 2024 A new report from Bloomberg states that MediaTek’s stock has risen by nearly 40 percent since the end […]
The Dimensity 9300 did not stick with a traditional CPU cluster like the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 this year, with the biggest difference between the two chipsets being the lack of efficiency cores on MediaTek’s current flagship SoC. While the advantage here is that the Dimensity 9300 can deliver incredible overall performance by surpassing Apple’s A17 Pro GPU, it is at the expense of increased power consumption. In a new CPU stress test, the crack in the silicon’s armor has been displayed, all the while running in an Android flagship that has a capable cooling solution. Vivo’s X100 Pro’s vapor chamber is […]
Several flagship smartphones will start getting treated to the faster LPDDR5T DRAM as manufacturer SK hynix begins shipping the first batch to its partners. The company had previously announced the next-generation DRAM technology, and now it will finally be implemented in handsets. Unfortunately, there is a possibility that this memory is only found in devices sporting MediaTek’s Dimensity 9300. No mention of Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 devices getting LPDDR5T support, suggesting that Dimensity 9300 handsets might exclusively feature this DRAM The South Korean manufacturer has stated through a press release that the LPDDR5T DRAM for smartphones is available in 16GB packages […]
The Dimensity 9300 shares a unique CPU cluster compared to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and Apple’s A17 Pro, and it appears that MediaTek’s gamble in not using any efficiency cores for its flagship SoC has paid off as its latest chip outperforms the top two players in the latest 3DMark Wild Life Extreme test. However, as one would expect, there is a noticeable power consumption spike as a result of using just Cortex-X4 and Cortex-A720 for the Dimensity 9300 this year. Dimensity 9300 operates at a 19.8 percent higher power consumption than the A17 Pro but obliterates Apple’s flagship iPhone […]
