MediaTek has released its latest and most potent processor, the Dimensity 9400, following numerous rumors and speculations. This chip is the initial one to be produced utilizing the TSMC’s N3E second-generation 3nm process, offering enhanced energy efficiency compared to its predecessor, the Dimensity 9300.

Dimensity 9400 demonstrates remarkable efficiency.

The Dimensity 9400 demonstrates a significant 40% improvement in energy efficiency compared to its predecessor, the Dimensity 9300, thanks to the utilization of the TSMC N3E process for enhanced energy management. Despite its debut in the Android ecosystem, Apple had already incorporated this technology in the A17 Pro chip a year earlier.

The Dimensity 9400 chip uses an unconventional “All Big Core” strategy with eight high-performance cores, including a Cortex-X925 core running at 3.62GHz, three Cortex-X4 cores, and four Cortex-A720 cores. Despite this unique setup, MediaTek claims the design effectively combines high performance and energy efficiency.

Dimensity 9400 outperforms the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra processor.

The Dimensity 9400 outperformed its previous version in benchmark tests, achieving a score of 3.055 in the single-core test and 9,600 in the multi-core Geekbench 6.2 test, resulting in gains of 35% and 28% respectively. It also surpassed the Qualcomm Snapdragon chip in Samsung S24 Ultra. The Dimensity 9400 introduces notable technological advancements, including the 12-core ARM Immortalis-G925 GPU, providing a 40% boost in graphic performance. It supports WQHD+ resolutions at a 180Hz refresh rate and is compatible with triple foldable screens like those found in the Huawei Mate XT. Additionally, it features the eighth generation of MediaTek NPU, designed for training lightweight AI models directly on the device.
