Dimensity 1050 uses TSMC’s 6nm process, and the CPU uses an eight-core architecture, including two Arm Cortex-A78 large core with a main frequency of 2.5GHz; at the same time, Dimensity 1050 also supports LPDDR5 memory and UFS 3.1 flash memory, which can provide faster application loading speed and greatly improve the smoothness of users when launching and using various APP applications. performance, and there will be no lag when launching multiple applications.
In terms of GPU, Dimensity 1050 uses a new generation of Arm Mali-G610, which combines high performance and energy efficiency, and supports MediaTek MiraVision 760 mobile display technology, supports FHD resolution 144Hz refresh rate display, and restores lifelike colors. Create a lifelike visual experience. Dimensity 1050 uses MediaTek HyperEngine 5.0 game engine to achieve comprehensive optimization in terms of performance, energy consumption, and connectivity, greatly improving support for mobile games, allowing users to play various types of mobile games smoothly.
In terms of network connection, Dimensity 1050 is highly integrated with 5G modem, supports dual connection and seamless switching of 5G millimeter wave and Sub-6GHz full-band networks, and supports 3CC in the 5G Sub-6GHz (FR1) frequency band. Three-carrier aggregation technology supports 4CC four-carrier aggregation technology in the 5G millimeter wave (FR2) frequency band to provide higher 5G speeds. Nowadays, mobile games and watching TV dramas have become the main forms of entertainment for most users. Mobile phones equipped with Dimensity 1050 can allow users to avoid lagging and delay problems when playing mobile games and watching high-definition videos.
In addition to gaming and watching TV dramas, many users are also particularly concerned about the camera experience on their mobile phones, especially the increasing demand for night scene photography. Dimensity 1050 is equipped with a dual-camera HDR video shooting engine, which supports the front and rear cameras of the smartphone to record high dynamic range videos at the same time. MediaTek's independent AI processor APU 550 can also greatly improve the AI ??camera function, bringing excellent low-light shooting and noise reduction effects, allowing users to record the beauty around them at any time in low-light and night scenes.
Chen Junhong, deputy general manager of MediaTek’s Wireless Communications Division, said: “The Dimensity 1050 mobile platform supports millimeter wave and Sub-6GHz full-band 5G networks, making full use of the advantages of each 5G frequency band to provide complete end-to-end high quality. 5G network connections and excellent energy efficiency meet the diverse 5G application needs of different countries and regions. Through high-speed and stable network connections and advanced imaging technology, the outstanding features of Dimensity Mobile Platform will help equipment manufacturers create a better product experience.”
In addition to Dimensity 1050, MediaTek also released Dimensity 930 5G mobile phone chip and Helio G99 4G mobile phone chip. Among them, Dimensity 930 supports full-band Sub-6GHz 5G network, as well as 2CC dual carrier aggregation and FDD TDD hybrid duplex, which can achieve faster transmission rates and wider signal coverage, empowering smartphones to bring high-quality 5G to users Network experience.
Dimensity 930 also supports MiraVision mobile display technology, providing FHD resolution 120Hz refresh rate display and HDR10 video standard for smartphones. Every user can experience an immersive display effect on a smartphone equipped with Dimensity 930. At the same time, Dimensity 930 also integrates intelligent network management technology through the HyperEngine 3.0 Lite game engine, which greatly reduces game network latency and power consumption, bringing a smoother and longer-lasting mobile game competitive experience. The Helio G99 4G mobile phone chip supports 4G LTE network, which is faster and more energy-saving, and can provide a smooth gaming experience.
