As per the MediaTek website, the Dimensity 800U SoC features four Cortex-A76 cores clocked at up to 2.4GHz, and four Cortex-A55 cores clocked at up to 2GHz. The GPU is the Mali-G57 MC3 with a maximum supported display resolution of 2,520x1,080 pixels and a maximum refresh rate of 120Hz.
Notably, the Dimensity 800U SoC can support up to 12GB of LPDDR4x RAM clocked at 2,133MHz and UFS 2.2 storage. Compared to the Dimensity 700 series chipsets, game load times are said to be 1.4 seconds faster. Benchmark scores are claimed to be up to 11 percent faster in CPU and 28 percent faster in GPU performance. The GPU also allows for video encoding and playback at 4K @ 30fps.
Connectivity options on this chip include 5G, Wi-Fi 5 (a/b/g/n/ac), GPS/ QZSS L1+ L5/ Galileo E1 + E5a/ BeiDou B1C + B2a/ NAVIC, and Bluetooth 5.1. It boasts of up to 2CC 5G Carrier Aggregations, seamless handover between two 5G areas, and better coverage. The Dimensity 800U SoC's integrated 5G modem supports 5G+5G Dual SIM Dual Standby (DSDS), VoNR, sub-6Ghz SA, and NSA networks, and MediaTek's 5G UltraSave technology.
The Dimensity 800U SoC also comes with support for up to 64-megapixel cameras or dual 20-megapixel + 16-megapixel cameras with a maximum supported resolution of 3,840x2,160 pixels. It also allows for HDR10+ content playback, as well as activating voice assistants like Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, or other localized services with multiple trigger words. As of now, there is no information on when the devices powered by Dimensity 800U will reach the market.
Incredible Experiences, Leading Features, Remarkable Performance
The MediaTek Dimensity 800 Series showcases the technological and product leadership of our 5G-integrated SoC’s (system on chip), in a tiny 7nm chip designed for incredibly featured, performance pumped 5G smartphones.
Technology-Leading 5G SoC
The MediaTek Dimensity series leads the industry by fully integrating a 5G NR (Sub-6GHz) modem that’s capable of Carrier Aggregation, compatibility with non-Standalone, and Standalone 5G network architectures provide full 2G-5G support and power-efficiency far beyond alternatives.
MediaTek 5G UltraSave
The World’s Most Power-Efficient Smartphone 5G Modem Design. In addition to leading the industry with a fully-integrated 5G SoC, MediaTek 5G UltraSave technologies provide even further cellular connectivity power-savings:
- MediaTek 5G UltraSave Network Environment Detection
- MediaTek 5G UltraSave OTA Content Awareness
- Dynamic BWP
- C-DRX (Connected Mode DRX)
Essential 2CC Carrier Aggregation
MediaTek Dimensity is the only 5G-integrated SoC series to provide 2CC Carrier Aggregation. This essential technology enables higher average speeds and a seamless handover between two 5G connection areas across a coverage layer, where users receive over 30% greater throughput layer coverage than without CA.
5G SA with VoNR
The Dimensity 800 supports new 5G SA services with VoNR, enabling the next generation of video and voice calls with incredible clarity.
Leading 5G Technologies
The fully-integrated 5G modem capabilities meet all 3GPP Release-15 requirements, plus DSS (Dynamic Spectrum Sharing) technology, FDD and TDD duplex modes, dual connectivity (EN-DC), and further connectivity enhancements.
Big Performance Cores
Where competitor alternatives offer just two premium CPUs, we’ve amped up the performance with four Arm Cortex-A76 cores in the octa-core CPU. Operating up to 2GHz in the Dimensity 800, this means faster games, faster app loading, and everything that needs Big Core muscle.
Premium GPU with MediaTek HyperEngine 2.0
The Dimensity 800 features four cores of the latest Arm Mali-G57 MC4 GPU. Combined with MediaTek HyperEngine 2.0, the whole smartphone has been optimized for the best gaming experience through our new generation of networking optimization, touchscreen responsiveness, and picture quality enhancements.
AI Processing Unit
MediaTek’s APU provides an impressive AI computing performance, offering up to 50% better performance over competitors. Its unique FP16 processing capabilities provide the most precise AI-camera results, while INT16/8 support is highly energy-efficient and supported widely in various types of AI photography and video enhancements.
MiraVision Video Playback
MiraVision Video is an exclusive display technology that intelligently adjusts a wide range of video stream factors, including color, brightness, contrast, sharpness, and dynamic range, based on what’s being watched or surrounding environmental factors, like viewing in bright daylight. Through two layers of hardware and software optimization, it improves the viewing quality to bring a cinema-grade visual experience to the small screen.
- AI-PQ
- HDR Composer (SDR to HDR video)
- Enhanced HDR10+ video playback
120Hz Gamer-Focused Displays
Brands can create enticing smartphones with FullHD+ 120Hz ‘high frame rate’ displays that are ideal for gamers that need a lightning-fast response in fast action titles. Fast refresh displays also enhance the everyday experience with smoother webpage scrolling and in-app animations.
