In recent years,MediaTekIt has been actively impacting the high-end market and launched a series of flagship chips to compete with Qualcomm. Particularly striking is their recent launchDimensityThe 9300 chip is on par with the Snapdragon 8 Gen3 in terms of performance and energy efficiency. However, to establish yourself in the high-end market,MediaTekSustained success is required across several generations of flagship chips. Hence the highly anticipated flagship chip to be released in the second half of 2024Dimensity9400 is very important. According to the latest revelations,DimensityThe 9400 will be upgraded to TSMC's 3nm process, which will result in higher transistor density and better energy efficiency, which will directly improve performance. In addition,DimensityThe 9400 will also feature an all-big-core design, including 1 x5 core, 3 x4 cores, and 4 A720 cores. withDimensity9300 compared toDimensityThe x5 core of the 9400 was a surprise. In order to further improve the performance,DimensityThe 9400 will also put L3CachingUpgraded from 8MB to 12MB, while it is expected to boost the L2 coresCaching。Judging from the performance test data that has been **,DimensityThe 9400 surpasses both single-core and multi-core scoresDimensity9300, and inAntutuThe performance in the review is also quite good. All in all,DimensityThe 9400 has a very considerable improvement in performance, which will undoubtedly have a positive impact on the high-end chip market. And forHuaweiofKirinAs far as chips are concerned, it needs to work hard to catch upMediaTekbecause the performance gap has widened. All in allDimensityThe 9400 is undoubtedly worth looking forward to, with its excellent performance, and TSMC's 3nm process and in-depth cooperation with Arm also provide a strong guarantee for its success. At the same time, domesticMobile phonesBrands also want to increase the diversity of chip vendors, which makes itMediaTekThere is still a lot of room for development in the flagship chip market. However, Qualcomm will not sit still, at present their flagship chip market is still very solid, and has also made efforts in the mid-to-high-end chip market, by launching low-end versions of past generations of flagship chips, or based on flagship chips to create excellent performance Snapdragon 7 series chips, these strategies are forMediaTek's market share poses a certain challenge. Therefore,MediaTekRevenue in 2023 decreased by 21% compared to 2022.
DimensityThe 9400 is based on TSMC's 3nm process, which has key advantages of higher transistor density and better energy efficiency. Upgrades to process nodes will improve chip performance while also better meeting the needs of battery life and heat dissipation. ForDimensityFor the 9400, this means that it will be able to run at higher frequencies for better performance.
DimensityThe 9400 is designed with an all-large core, including 1 x5 core, 3 x4 cores, and 4 A720 cores. This configuration provides high performance while providing a better balance between power consumption and performance. The addition of X5 cores, in particular, not only provides more advanced processing power, but also improves overall performance.
In order to further improve the performance,Dimensity9400 will l3CachingUpgraded from 8MB to 12MB and is expected to boost the L2 coresCaching。This upgrade is for:Big dataThe improvement of processing and multitasking skills is crucial. In addition,DimensityThe 9400 is also expected to offer higher capacity and faster speedsCaching, which greatly optimizes data transmission and processingEfficiency
According to the performance test data that has been published,DimensityThe 9400 scored 2776 points in the Geekbench6 test for single-core and 11739 points for multi-coreAntutuThe total score is about 3.45 million points, the CPU sub-project is about 770,000 points, and the GPU sub-project is about 1.42 million points. Comparatively,DimensityThe 9300 has a single-core score of 2279 points and a multi-core score of 7973 pointsAntutuThe total score is about 2.19 million points, the CPU sub-project is about 520,000 points, and the GPU sub-project is about 900,000 points. It can be seen,DimensityThe performance of the 9400 has been improved by more than 20% or more in all indicators. Especially inAntutuIn the review,DimensityThe overall score of the 9400 is about 10% higher than that of the Snapdragon 8 Gen4, which is more than thatDimensityThe gap between the 9300 and the Snapdragon 8 Gen3.
