MediaTek Dimensity 7000 to be based on the 5nm node

20 November 2021
It will be based on TSMC's 5nm manufacturing process.

It's probs cuz they chose the remaining ones for other chips like the 1300 is now the mtk 1300t kompanio for tablets (I think). The 2000 idk why it was canceled but it also kind of followed huawei as they went from kirin 990 to kirin 9000.

MTK's naming scheme is weird though; like why did they go straight from Dim 1100 & 1200 to Dim 7000 & 9000 when Dim 1300 & 1400 would make more sense.

      joe nodden, 23 Nov 2021Exactly. Yet these cruddy manufacturers keep choosing Samsu... moreI'm guessing that it's to do with TSMC not having enough capacity for Google and Qualcomm. Exyno (not a typo, Exynos sucks) will use Samsung bc they're the from the same company.

        Ayaan, 21 Nov 2021it will compete with snapdragon 888 and 888plus. at price ... moreSome of you Indians are crazy. No hate tho. Cuz I myself am pakistani (yes I have revealed that many times). But a chip competing with sd 888 and sd 888+ under 30k inr? Like tf. Honestly there are a few phones thta are close to 30k with sd 888. But this doesn't even compete with sd 888 and sd 888+ anyways.

          Anonymous, 22 Nov 2021People are stupid, they want competition in the mobile mark... moreI agree with you. But there is no GSMarena *owner* or something. U can say there is an founder. As gsmarena was only 1 or 2 person when it was released judging by its first articles and reviews. And now its an whole team. Gsmarena doesn't look at the toxic comments cuz the articles and reviews they make takes alot of time.

            anonym, 22 Nov 2021Oh, no. miniso is Chinese brand with japanese chief designer.And that makes it a Japanese brand Sir. Cuz even ur iphone are produced in China I think. Same way miniso is produced in China and its not that popular in China either.

                Like the 778G in my samsung a52s is said to have been fabbed at TSMC but the 780G and the predecessor to the 778G which I think was the 768G were fabbed at samsung.

                samsung themselves use mediatek , so I think people just look too deep in to things, or over think them.
                even apple have used mediatek before

Something tells me some higher ups at Google and Qualcomm and whatnot are making choices they shouldn't be due to ignorance.

                    TSMC's is nearly 40% higher!
                    Physically TSMC's is far better...but the name doesn't show the true story!

                      They don't like monopoly or duopoly, but again they want just their preferred brand to rule.

                      This site is just full of fanboys and toxic rubbish, and the site owners don't care how toxic it gets.

                        Wish they'd just cut the "nm" crap already. It isn't 5nm. Companies have already admitted "5nm" and "7nm" doesn't refer to the space between transistors.

                            Cores must share the sale instructions set.

                            Dimensity 7000 is 1200's real successor...it should have 1+3 A710 and 4 A510...I doubt it will get X2 core

                              I like what I see, especially if it uses ARM’s V9 architecture. Sure, it may be faster than the Snapdragon 870, but Qualcomm is not standing around either. It will be VERY interesting to see in which non-flagship SoC Qualcomm will use the 710 and 510 cores: successor to Snapdragon 870? Series 7 Gen 1? And will they implement the X1 core in them, or stick with the 710+510 combo?

                                it will compete with snapdragon 888 and 888plus.
                                at price below 30k.

Now if I give example u probs not know miniso (Japanese brand) its famous and very expensive in our country. And I was buying a toy gun for pkr 800 (dollar worth pkr175 or something) and since it famous brna dglobally too I bought it. When I used it the spring didn't work properly and u have to push the bullet in the muzzle a bit more for it to properly even cover a bit of distance. And for example if you find an iPhone that is more expensive instead of an andriod that has better quality for cheaper price u will prob buy iPhone since iphone is iPhone. And u will ultimately fall for the trend trap

                                        Mediatek seems to going to kill Qualcomm in phone department.

                                        Qualcomm still strong in laptop, vr, ar world but good that we at last going to see proper competition!
