- The chip delivers ultra-fast 5G speeds, impressive power-efficiency and seamless connectivity
- Designed for global sub-6GHz 5G networks
MediaTek has announced the Dimensity 820 system-on-chip (SoC) that delivers ultra-fast 5G speeds and is feature-packed with the latest multimedia, AI and imaging innovations, thus offering enhanced user experiences.
“Our Dimensity 1000 is already powering impressive flagship 5G devices in a number of markets. With the new Dimensity 820, we’re now making 5G much more accessible,” said Dr Yenchi Lee, Assistant General Manager of MediaTek’s Wireless Communications Business Unit. “The Dimensity 820 stands out beyond competitors by offering four high-performance Arm Cortex-A76 cores at 2.6GHz within its octa-core CPU, delivering superb performance and responsiveness, among its incredible AI, gaming and photography experiences.”
Excellent HDR and 5G capabilities
Dimensity 820 is equipped with high-performance Arm Mali G57 GPU graphics plus HyperEngine 2.0 enhancements that allow users to immerse themselves in the latest mobile games. Impressive High Dynamic Range (HDR) features with MediaTek MiraVision showcases the most vivid visuals in videos and streams.
MediaTek’s Dimensity 820 integrates a 5G NR (sub-6GHz) modem into this single-chip solution with MediaTek’s 5G UltraSave technologies, including exclusive 5G UltraSave Network Environment Detection and 5G UltraSave OTA Content Awareness, that altogether provides best-in-class energy efficiency. The 5G modem design also uses dynamic bandwidth part (BWP) adaption and connected mode discontinuous reception (C-DRX) power-saving technologies.
5G Carrier Aggregation (CA) technology delivers higher average speeds and a seamless handover between two 5G connection areas for the most reliable connectivity on the go. The Dimensity 820 also supports dual SIM, dual standby (DSDS) 5G technology for access to the fastest speeds and Voice over New Radio (VoNR) services on both SIMs.
