Pricing is everything. Software experience and phone size are pretty important too, but I'm expecting this to wind up only in generic 6.5" and 6.6" phones with complete disregard for consumers that want smaller phones. Complete disregard for consumers that prefer plain Android distributions. ETC, etc. At this point it's completely fair to say that Dimensity SoCs have competitive performance. It's just that performance isn't everything.

Although this processor is below D8200 in hierarchy and overall will be less powerful as D7200 has only 2 Big cores as compared to 4 on the D8200, but it is technologically more advanced.
Firstly, it uses A715 and A510 cores as compared to the older A78 and A55 cores on D8200. Secondly the D7200 uses "2nd gen 4nm process" (N4P) fabrication process, which is same as D9200, while the D8200 is fabbed on just "4nm process" (N4).
Frankly, I was not expecting a midrange chipset to be using the most advanced fabrication process currently in commercial use! Kudos Mediatek! And thanks to the latest core architecture and fabrication process, this chipset is going to be really really power efficient and certainly a battery champ!

Chinese OEMs gonna used it paired with imx766(or hm6)/ 8MP/2MP cameras, old ufs3.1 ( from local supplier ) , gorilla 5 front/plastic back, usb c 2.0 , boe screen , no IP rating ,
Better weaker SoC if rest of device is better than this.

Anonymous, 16 Feb 2023Lol no it doesn't. A16 does better in everything but G... moreA16 has other lacks than GPU...
RAM is slower...
It uses LPDDR5 6400 on 14 Pro/Pro Max, LPDDR4X 4266 on 14
9200 and 8 Gen 2 use LPDDR5X 8500 and 8533. (Twice faster than LPDDR4X on 14! Apple advertised 50% faster Ram on 14 Pro...but compare to 13 and 14, same LPDDR5 was already used last year on Android, or even LPDDR5X on D9000)
A16 hasn't AV1 hardware decoder, 8 Gen 2 has yet, 3 years old Dimensity 1000+ has!
Wired link (lightning) is limited to USB2.0
9200 and 8 Gen 2 allow USB3.2.
Not to say, 9200 and 8 Gen 2 both have built-in 5G modem, when iPhone uses separate modem (from Qualcomm)
Or 9200 and 8 Gen 2 both have built-in Wifi/bluetooth (with wifi 6E, ready for wifi 7), when iPhone uses a separate wifi 6 chip (from Broadcom).
A16 is really late on several aspects

for light games? its to powerful even some Android midrange is enough for that.
heavy game? its always chinese game there's no way iphone user playing that kind games except on mainland also the battery kinda suck

Zero, 16 Feb 2023Is pending how strong is 7+ Gen1. Still is not enough since... moreThis is how I imagine things :
I doubt 7000 and 7100 or even 9100 will exist.
It seems Mediatek is going to a clearer naming police.
I think the first digit is for the range :
- 9 for high-end (= Snapdragon 8)
- 8 for super-mid
- 7 for mid-range (=Snapdragon 7)
The second digit is for the generation. This year, it's Gen 2
This year, you will have 7200, 8200, 9200
Next year you will have 7300, 8300, 9300
And you can have some overclocked versions like 9250 for exemple.
7000 serie replace Dimensity 900, 920, 930, 1080
8000 serie replace Dimensity 1000, 1100, 1200, 1300
You will probably have a 6000 serie to replace 800, 810, 820
And maybe a 4000 serie to replace 700, 720
This is what Mediatek should do to let consumers understand.

Pushing Cortex A715 up to 2.8ghz is not a problem when you've got X3 up to 3.36ghz on 8 Gen 2 with the same 4nm from TSMC (not the 4nm from Samsung used on 7 Gen 1)

YUKI93, 16 Feb 2023Isn't the 8000 series built to compete against the 7 Gen 1?No. The 8000 series was a de to compete against the 800 series, specifically older high-end socs

A16 does better in everything but GPU compared to 8 Gen 2.and im more of an android fan than iPhone but I cna admit when iPhone is still the best performer. Check Anand tech if you want to see the truth of benchmarks.

Zero, 16 Feb 2023Actually I see the following comparison:
- Dimensity 900... moreLol these comparisons mostly make no sense.
The 8000 series are for older Flagship chipsets, not 7 series.
The Dimensity 1080 is to be compared to the 7 series, and it beats all but the 778 and above (so 778+,7 gen 1 and 780( which is the ACTUAL most powerful of the 7 series))
