No thanks dragon for me.

    IpsDisplay, 05 Feb 2024Not sure if you read what I said at all I literally said... moreI said

    MTK have been constantly securing the entry and mid level market. They achieved higher market share than Qualcomm in these segments many years ago, in the Helio era, well before the Dimensity.

    What's wrong with this? Does unisoc have a higher market share or higher revenue now compared with MTK in the mentioned segments? Is there any factual error?

      I literally said "not saying it's going to happen"

      And I did do my research, your straw manning me with the claim that mediatek still has higher share

      I said unisoc is eating away at mediatek's entry level and this is objectively true .. the global market share of them.has been steadily increasing

      And your just making up some claims out of thin air where was it mentioned that I said they will use it in the S series .. come on man.. using mediatek's flagship soc doesn't mean use in their S series what kind of reasoning is that?

        Dimensity is for A/M/F. Chess game? Step by step?They're just giving Qualcomm pressure to have a better deal.

        And, do your research before claiming other people is wrong. Back then they were Spreadtrum, and now MTK still have a higher share.

          MRSTEK, 05 Feb 2024Why everyone in the comments section seems to be excited an... moreBecause the implications are potentially massive

          Mediatek did lose again to qualcomm when they launched chipset like the 410 etc in their midrange etc

          But unlike before they have flagship SOCs now
          If they can slowly strengthen business relationships they could maybe even try to convince them to use their flagship SOCs..

          Not saying it will happen but slow and steady steps .. it's a chess game

          And your wrong about entry level unisoc is eating away at that

            PanRT, 05 Feb 2024A55 need Dimensity 8300 Ultra or 9200.It won't have one. And currently using a54. The chip is really good in everything for average usecase scenarios

              Why everyone in the comments section seems to be excited and surprised? MTK have been constantly securing the entry and mid level market. They achieved higher market share than Qualcomm in these segments many years ago, in the Helio era, well before the Dimensity.

                Yes! I support this. Don't use crapynos for the mid range phone 🙄

                  Bad days are coming

                    Yong Farlight84, 05 Feb 2024I would choose a better Mediatek flagship chip than Exynos chipFor example in the piexel, I prefer the flagship mediateck soc to continue carrying that renowned exynos

                      I would choose a better Mediatek flagship chip than Exynos chip

                        More greased to UniSoc chipset...they can do it.

                          I used a dimensity 1080 in my Samsung, and it's never let me down,firstly because I never ,because of what I've experience with them,I've never applied or updated any 'security update' nor 'software update'...I only did the update that came with the first week the phone got released cause I knew Samsung would take thier time to fine tune the 'security update
                          ' around that time....back to the point MediaTek chipset are pretty good.

                            Now this is how business is done 👍

                            If mediatek can secure a big player like Sammy

                            Not gonna be way though because qualcomm has some year binding contracts

                            Tech geeks think manufacturers chose "quality" of the chipsets performance as the main deciding factor

                            When in reality it's how excellent the hand shake is behind closed doors between executives and potential for profits

                                  Would be great, more A series phones with decent Dimensity chipsets, instead of mediocre Exynos chipsets.

                                      MediaTek deserves a shot. Their Dimensity series has been excellent and they have been steadily building up for this moment.
