MediaTek to Introduce New Dimensity Chipsets on December 23

MediaTek will introduce next-generation Dimensity chipsets in China next week. The Taiwanese semiconductor company, through its social media handle, confirmed the launch of new chips without revealing their names. MediaTek's rumoured Dimensity 8400 SoC is expected to debut at the launch event as the successor to last year's Dimensity 8300 SoC. The purported 4nm chip could use a 1+3+4 architecture. It is said to have scored more than 1.8 million points in AnTuTu benchmarks.

In a Weibo post, MediaTek announced that its next-generation Dimensity chips will be launched on December 23 at 03:00pm (12:00pm IST). The brand, however, didn't disclose the exact moniker of the upcoming chipsets, but based on recent rumours we can expect one of them to be the Dimensity 8400 SoC.
