The Dimension 8200 is not official yet, but we already know that it will power Xiaomi Redmi phones and the upcoming iQOO 7 SE. And now thanks to the prolific tipster Digital chat station we get the key specs of the SoC and they suggest a minor upgrade over the Dimension 8100.
It would use the same 4x Cortex-A78 and 4x Cortex-A55 cores, but in a different configuration at higher clock speeds. The A78 will be split into two clusters: 1x Cortex-A78 clocked at 3.1GHz and 3x Cortex-A78 clocked at 3.0GHz. The four efficiency Cortex-A55 cores remain at 2.0GHz.
For comparison, the Cortex-A78 in the Dimension 8100 runs at 2.85 GHz, so MediaTek bumped up the clock speed a bit. However, the Mali-G610 MC6 GPU remains the same. Finally, the tipster claims that the AnTuTu performance of the SoC likely surpasses the 900,000-point barrier.
The report concludes with some price predictions for future Redmi and iQOO smartphones running the aforementioned silicon. Apparently, they won’t break the CNY 2,000 barrier, which in dollars is $280. Granted, this price doesn’t include taxes and other price components in Western markets, but it still looks quite competitive.
