Processors are among the few constants in the smartphone world. That\u2019s why we can safely assume that virtually every upcoming top-tier Android smartphone will feature either a Qualcomm or MediaTek chipset.While rumors about the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 and its heartbreaking pricing have started pouring out, we\u2019ve heard relatively little about the Dimensity 9600. A new rumor changes that with wild claims about the performance of MediaTek\u2019s leading chip.<\/p>\n

Dimensity 9600 could outperform both Apple’s and Qualcomm\u2019s processors<\/h2>\n

MediaTek\u2019s upcoming flagship processor will be manufactured on a 2nm process node, according to Weibo tipster Digital Chat Station. The leaker doesn\u2019t clarify whether the chip will be fabricated on TSMC\u2019s N2P or Samsung\u2019s SF2 process, but they claim it\u2019ll offer excellent performance.
\nUtilizing a 2+3+3 all-big core CPU architecture, the Dimensity 9600 will aim to offer industry-leading single-core performance that should rival Apple\u2019s flagship A-series chips. On top of that, the chip is said to offer even better multi-core performance than that of Apple\u2019s chips.<\/p>\n

The missing detail about those claims is whether the comparison is with the A19 Pro inside the iPhone 17 Pro or the upcoming A20-series processor of the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max. The leaker also hasn\u2019t mentioned the clock speeds of the new chip.<\/p>\n

Focus on the GPU<\/h2>\n

Alongside the mentioned improvements to the Compute Matrix Engine (CME) and Scalable Matrix Extension (SME) capabilities, MediaTek may also have a focus on the GPU. The new chip is said to offer advantages in comparison to competing 2nm chips.Those may include native frame interpolation and resolution upscaling as well as improved ray-tracing performance. The…
