MediaTek Dimensity 8350: The evolution of the 8300 with a focus on gaming and energy efficiency

Published by Vadym Karpus

MediaTek has prepared for release a new mobile processor, the Dimensity 8350, which differs little from the existing Dimensity 8300. However, the new product should improve the performance of devices in games.

The Dimensity 8350 processor is manufactured on a 4nm process technology. It has four productive Cortex-A715 cores with a frequency of 3.35 GHz and four energy-efficient Cortex-A510 cores. Mali-G615 MC6 is responsible for graphics. The SoC supports quad-channel LPDDR5X memory with a frequency of up to 8533 Mbps and storage up to UFS 4.0. The multi-core MediaTek NPU 780 is used for AI tasks.

The only difference found in MediaTek’s materials is the new StarSpeed engine for gaming. The old 8300 used HyperEngine for gaming. StarSpeed in Dimensity 8350 provides 10% less power consumption (24% in high frame rate and full frame modes), 24% faster scene transition speed, and low latency in data transmission. But MediaTek doesn’t specify whether these improvements are over the 8300 or another chip.

The new Dimensity 8350 also has support for Bluetooth 5.4, 5G, and Wi-Fi 6E. The chip supports displays up to 180 Hz (FullHD+) or 120 Hz (WQHD+). For shooting, there is a limit of 320 megapixels for one camera or 32 megapixels for three cameras. Video is limited to 4K at 60 frames per second.

The new Dimensity 8350 chipset is currently announced in three new Oppo devices.
