MediaTek Dimensity 1000 had a very high response at the previous press conference, because OPPO and Xiaomi both sent their blessings and felt that this chip is still quite good, but this year’s smartphone 5G In the era when mobile phones are booming, there is no such chip from MediaTek from any manufacturer.
First of all, it’s about price, because Qualcomm and MediaTek are competitors and they are fighting a price war. Qualcomm’s information and technology are better than MediaTek’s, and Qualcomm’s current production of the Snapdragon 865 chip It has been gradually improved. As the production volume increases, the price can be appropriately reduced. Moreover, this chip has the same algorithm as the original Qualcomm series chips. There is no problem of algorithm replacement. The price is cheap and convenient. Naturally, the four major domestic manufacturers Everyone except Huawei is willing to carry Qualcomm chips.
The second is performance. Although MediaTek's chip has good performance, it has some fatal shortcomings. In terms of pixels, it can only support sales of up to 100,000 and 8 million, but it is expected that In the second half of this year, the flagship phones released by several domestic manufacturers will have 100 million pixels. MediaTek's chip does not support such high pixels, which is very embarrassing, and MediaTek's chips have always been The shortcoming is that he really pulls his hips when it comes to taking pictures, and he just doesn't do anything. His personality may be good, but the algorithm for taking pictures is really not that good.
The performance of the chip is indeed good, but manufacturers must use it to make money. Therefore, due to the combined impact of market positioning, price, technology and other factors, Qualcomm’s market share is larger than theirs. Big, because these manufacturers such as Xiaomi used to use Qualcomm's chips for a large part of their mobile phones, and now they suddenly have to switch to MediaTek's chips. There is a problem of algorithm replacement, between Qualcomm's and MediaTek's. The algorithm is different and needs to be revised again, which requires a lot of manpower and material resources. There is a ready-made framework, why not use it? And the cost is low.
