MEDIATEK COMING WITH DIMENSITY 2000

 

MediaTek is finally set to deliver a bonafide flagship chipset in the form of the Dimensity 2000. The Dimensity 2000 will do battle with the Snapdragon 898 and Exynos 2200 and could even come out on top efficiency-wise, thanks to TSMC's 4 nm manufacturing process.

Last week, word surfaced indicating MediaTek's plans to release the Dimensity 2000, an SoC expected to do battle with Qualcomm's upcoming Snapdragon 898 while having the advantage of lower cost. It appears the Dimensity 2000 could also trounce the Snapdragon 898 in another major aspect.

Going by a new report, the Dimensity 2000 will be built on MediaTek's 4 nm node. This isn't brand new information, either, as it corroborates our report from July about MediaTek's plan to beat Qualcomm to the punch by using a world-first 4 nm manufacturing process built by TSMC. The chipset in question looks set to be the Dimensity 2000.

This would be an impressive move by MediaTek, as TSMC's nodes have had a solid advantage over Samsung's for a while now. The Snapdragon 888 and Exynos 2100, for example, were both built on Samsung's 5 nm process and suffered from lackluster efficiency. TSMC's fabs have been better in that regard recently, and that advantage can be expected to carry over to the 4 nm process.
