Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 898 SoC is already making news with many OEMs waiting for its launch. But, there is one another chipset that is making waves is the MediaTek Dimensity 2000. The latter is apparently the MediaTek’s first true flagship SoC. In a recent development, the MediaTek offering will be as much as 20 per cent more efficient than Qualcomm’s upcoming SoC. However, this is not where it ends with these two. Let’s look into the leak providing information on what to expect from the two chips, performance-wise:

MediaTek Dimensity 2000 Rumoured Superiority?
According to Digital Chat Station, the MediaTek Dimensity 2000 and Snapdragon 898 will look quite similar on paper. However, it will come with a few differences. The Snapdragon 898 will be built on Samsung’s 4 nm manufacturing process. Whereas, the Dimensity 2000 will use TSMC’s 4 nm node. Now, it looks like this is where the efficiency differences begins. It starts with TSMC’s nodes being a bit better than Samsung’s over the last few years.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 898 SoC:
It will apparently employs an octa-core CPU that comprises of cortex-X3 based main core clocked at 3.0GHz. It comes along with 3x Cortex-A710 based performance cores running at 2.5GHz. The energy-efficient Cortex-A510 based cores will be clocked at 1.79Hz. The chipset will pair with the Adreno 730 GPU to take of graphic workloads. However, what improvements it will bring over the Adreno 660 is something that remains to be seen.

MediaTek Dimensity 2000 SoC:
Similarly, it will feature an identical configuration but the cluster of three performance cores is tipping to clock at 2.85GHz. Now, this is considerably higher than the Snapdragon 898 ones. The chipset will pair with Mali G710 MC10 GPU for graphics. The chipset will be based on TSMC’s 4nm manufacturing process. We can expect the performance to be solid and in line with the Snapdragon flagship SoCs. We can also expect brands like Redmi, Realme, OPPO, and others to line up phones.
