    Anonymous, 21 Apr 2021I agree mediatek needs to up the production if they want to... moreIt's not Mediatek's fault. Blame Xiaomi, Oppo, Realme etc.
    Xiaomi has an 820 phone but it's China only, the same with Vivo.
    Oppo has basically released the weaker 700 series in Europe.
    Realme GT Neo will never see a global release.
    I really don't get these companies. The chips are cheaper and better and yet I am forced to use Snapdragon trash...

            Shadocx, 21 Apr 2021The Dimensity 1200 is on par with SD 870.No it is on par with Exynos 1080 and Kirin 9000.
            Snapdragon 870 is based on older architecture.

              Excited to see how power efficient this setup having all cortex A78 based cores is compared to the cortex A78 + cortex X1 cores on Snapdragon 888

                IpsDisplay, 21 Apr 2021Exclusive? The dimensity 800u is global, India also got the 1000Yes, but still on a limited number of models. The Dimensity 1000+ is nowhere to be found in Europe, the 820 still hasn't made it's way globally, and the 1200 is so far sticking with Chinese models only.
                That's my frustration with these manufacturers.

                      As per usual, these Dimensity monsters will remain exclusive to China but Xiaomi will happily bring the overpriced garbage Snapdragon. Yaay!

                          Many people saying that mediatek is horrible at emulation/emulators, is really just living at the past, or just simply uninformed about updated news. The older Mediatek chipsets are generally bad at emulation, but newer mediatek dimensity chipsets are pretty good at emulation now. Do some research before saying old, outdated information about mediatek being terrible at emulation.

                              Anonymous, 21 Apr 2021How many people buy a gaming phone to play old games, lol? ... moreEmulators need lot of resource, like switch emulator consume more than 9GB of ram, through it your hardware are being utilized. Do you know any Android game which use 12 or 16 or 18GB ram? Probably no one, but through Emulation it's possible, so those gaming phones are better fit to use for emulation while slower phones can rull all Android games.

                              And they are not Old, Nintendo switch and 3ds are active right now, new games are still released

                                Emulation is best way to enjoy games, most Android games are pay to win, and they are not good compare to Nintendo switch, Wii or 3ds games.
