MediaTek Dimensity 9400 is ready for the new era of AI agents

MediaTek has presented its new processor for flagship mobile devices, Dimensity 9400, with which it offers greater speed and performance and a platform designed for the new era of artificial intelligence (AI) agents.

Dimensity 9400 is equipped with an eighth generation neural processing unit (NPU) with which it aims to drive the next new wave of Agent-based generative AI and keep mobile devices at the forefront of innovation with this technology and support for multimodal language modelslike Gemini Nano.

The semiconductor firm has highlighted the speed of this processor aimed at high-end mobile devices, to the flagship teams. This is due to the second generation large core design of the CPU (Arm Cortex-X925) which runs at 3.62 Ghz.

This translates to up to 35 percent faster single-core performance and up to 28 percent faster multi-core performance compared to the previous generation flagship Dimensity, as MediaTek noted in a press release.

This chip also drives a improved user experiencewhich improves control consistency with a touch response of less than 100ms and an activation response deviation of less than 12ms. It also improves application cold start speed by up to 35 percent.

The use of the 3 nanometer manufacturing process also promotes energy efficiency, with an improvement of up to 40 percent. It is compatible with the LPDDR5X 10667 RAM memory standard, “the fastest” for smartphones.

The twelve-core GPU uses the Immortalis-G925 architecture, which improves traditional graphics with ray tracinga technology that offers “desktop PC-like capabilities.” It also includes the set of MediaTek HyperEngine gaming technologies.

Dimensity 9400 also supports HDR video capture throughout the zoom range With Imagiq 1090 and with the support of AI, it offers photos with 100X magnification and sharp details. It also records 4K60 video continuously for three hours. In audio, it supports recording up to 6 microphones and 24 bits and Bluetooth lossless audio up to 24-bit/384 Khz.

This processor also has support for 5Gwith up to 7 Gbps of sub-6 Ghz performance, as well as for connection WiFi 7 y Bluetooth 5.4 And when it comes to photography, it supports three-lens cameras on devices with larger screens.
