Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

The newly announced Dimensity 9400 is the first Android smartphone SoC to be mass produced on TSMC’s latest 3nm ‘N3E’ process, putting it on par with Apple’s A18 Pro in terms of lithography, but there are a ton of differences compared to last year’s Dimensity 9300. With the CPU cluster and GPU getting notable upgrades, MediaTek took the opportunity to compare its latest release with the A18 Pro, showcasing how fast it is in two specific benchmarks that stress the chipset’s two areas. The biggest performance difference is seen in the GPU side of things, where the Dimensity 9400’s Immortalis-G925 beats […]
MediaTek is expected to officially announce the Dimensity 9400 on October 9, so just a couple of days remain for the grand unveiling. While we have witnessed the chipset’s capabilities in the form of benchmark leaks, the CPU cluster and GPU details still eluded us until today, when a tipster provided a decent amount of information. Naturally, there will be some differences between the upcoming SoC and the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, so let us get right into it. Maximum CPU clock speed of Dimensity 9400 is said to operate at 3.626GHz, making it lower than the Snapdragon 8 Gen […]
NVIDIA & MediaTek have partnered to bring the full suite of G-Sync technologies available to a wider range of gamers in more cost-effective monitor options. MediaTek's Scalers To Harness The Full Suite of NVIDIA G-Sync Technologies, Dropping The Need For Dedicated Modules & Reducing Gaming Monitor Prices For Everyone NVIDIA's G-Sync technology was first introduced in 2013 and since then, it has seen various tech updates in the form of ULM, Reflex Analyzer, Pulsar, and integration within a range of monitors such as G-Sync Compatible, G-Sync Ultimate, and BFGDs (Big Format Gaming Displays) segments. NVIDIA is working with MediaTek to […]
MediaTek x NVIDIA will release their highly-anticipated AI PC chip in the first half of next year, as both companies plan on dominating the rapidly growing segment. MediaTek's New AI PC SoC Might Be The Answer To The "Slump" In The CPU Markets, Expected To Feature Immense Capabilities With NVIDIA's Power Well, rumors surrounding a custom chip being made by MediaTek for the AI PC markets have been swirling for quite some time now, and the hype massively increased when it was reported on NVIDIA joining the development process. We did expect some showcase back at Computex 2024, given that […]
MediaTek is going all out with its flagship smartphone chipset release as the Taiwanese fabless semiconductor manufacturer will reportedly introduce its Dimensity 9400 in October. Like Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, the upcoming SoC is said to be mass produced on TSMC’s second-generation 3nm process, bringing in a wave of performance and efficiency improvements. MediaTek’s CEO, Rick Tsai, has expressed confidence in the upcoming silicon and believes that the Dimensity 9400’s release will allow the company to experience a 50 percent increase in annual revenue. Dimensity 9300 alone was previously reported to have generated $1 billion in revenue for MediaTek; […]
The Galaxy Tab S10+ and Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra will reportedly enter mass production in August, with Samsung expected to use MediaTek’s Dimensity 9300+ for the first time in its flagship tablet family. As Qualcomm continues to raise its chipset prices, the Korean giant has to seek alternatives to reduce its component cost or continue bearing reduced profit margins on each sale. As it so happens, one report states that by teaming up with MediaTek, Samsung will gain increased bargaining power over Qualcomm, maybe to the extent that the latter provides its Snapdragon shipments at a lower price. Samsung’s 18 […]
The Dimensity 9400 will be MediaTek’s most advanced smartphone chipset to date and is said to be mass produced on TSMC’s second-generation 3nm process, which is the same one used for Apple’s M4. A cutting-edge node is not going to be the only attribute of the upcoming SoC because Samsung recently announced that it has completed validation of the world’s fastest LPDDR5X memory for MediaTek’s upcoming latest and greatest silicon. In addition to increased bandwidth, the Korean giant announced that we should witness greater power efficiency from this standard. Samsung and MediaTek completed the verification process for the Dimensity 9400 […]
MediaTek is all set to develop its own AI server chips, featuring the ARM architecture along with cutting-edge capabilities on TSMC's 3nm node. MediaTek Looks To Make Strides In The AI Markets, Plans To Offer Its Own AI Server Chips Based on TSMC's 3nm Node MediaTek is one of the chip manufacturers that has been determined to make a stride in the AI markets. In previous reports, the company was said to be building a chip dedicated to the "AI PC" segment in collaboration with NVIDIA, a competitor to the Snapdragon X Elite lineup. However, MediaTek now looks to experiment […]
A rumor was doing the rounds earlier, claiming that Samsung’s poor 3nm yields meant that the Exynos 2500 would not ship in time, and the company would be forced to launch its Galaxy S25 series exclusively using Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 4. However, shortly after, it was stated that the Korean giant might use an unnamed MediaTek chipset in one of its flagship models next year, though the exact details were not provided. Based on the latest report, the upcoming Dimensity 9400 could make an entry next year, potentially setting up a meaningful partnership between Samsung and MediaTek. Dimensity 9400 […]
Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Elite will eventually be found in nearly every Windows laptop model by a range of manufacturers, and MediaTek wants to tap into this category soon. Already proving its capabilities by taking the fight to its chipset rival in the Android flagship smartphone space, a new report states that Qualcomm may have another competitor to deal with besides Apple. The first MediaTek SoC for Windows laptops is said to arrive late next year, as Qualcomm’s exclusivity deal will expire; NVIDIA may partner with the Taiwanese firm While an exact launch timeline was not given, Reuters reports that MediaTek […]
MediaTek is prepping its Dimensity 9400 for a launch later this year, and the Taiwanese fabless semiconductor manufacturer is said to have a close relationship with Vivo, as the latter was previously reported to introduce its first flagship featuring the high-end silicon. Now, according to one tipster, we have learned the name of this premium smartphone; the X200. No launch date or other specifications of the Vivo X200 were shared, apart from the inclusion of a periscope zoom lens and bigger battery It is not surprising to hear that Vivo’s X200 will be the first flagship to feature the Dimensity […]
NVIDIA and MediaTek might be working on a brand new SOC that will be powering gaming handhelds and consoles. MediaTek's Upcoming SOC's Might Just Prompt NVIDIA's Return In The Console Segment, Gaming Handhelds Also Being Worked On According to @XpeaGPU, it looks like we might soon see NVIDIA returning to the console gaming segment. The leaker states that MediaTek is developing a next-gen gaming handheld SOC that'll feature NVIDIA's GPU IP as the company sees good potential in this segment. It is also stated that the SOC will be different than the other semi-custom stuff that NVIDIA is working on […]
