MediaTek Dimensity 8400 now official with all big core CPU, a first for its segment

23 December 2024
This might finally dethrone the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3.

The Android Freak, 23 Dec 2024How about thermals? How about gaming performance?It is very good performance phone in $300 dude. A bit hot when you push to max level (you can buy a fan to counter it) and the AnTuTu score is about 1,4 M
And my phone have fast ram (LPDDR5X) 12gb, and UFS 4.0 with 512gb. The camera surprisingly good for the phone that focus on performance. The screen bezel scream flagship because thin, albeit a bit thicker bezel on the chin. Overall I think in $300 price point, and you focus on performance, this is outstanding phone!

    9300 is just the first all big core 8 core cpu. Dual, quad, hexa(ios only), all big core existed years before.

      jiyen235, 23 Dec 2024I pray to God this goes in some actually good value product... moreThe thing is it'll basically go into cheap performance focused phones with 50mp 8m 2mp camera combinations. There is already a sea of these type of phones with snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and dimensity 9300/9300+ and slight older models with dimensity 9200 and snapdragon 8s gen 3 or 8 Gen 2. They are all very similar. The only real improvement with the latest ones is they are coming with bigger batteries but that already started a few months ago with performance phones like the z9 turbo pro+ with 6,400mAh battery and dimensity 9300+

        The, 23 Dec 2024No efficiency cores this time huh?Hopefully the chipset won... moreWe've been all big core configuration for 2 generations now

        This should be good to go

          The, 23 Dec 2024No efficiency cores this time huh?Hopefully the chipset won... moreARM claim that Cortex-A725 is 25% more power efficient and boast 35% better efficiency on performance compare to its predecessor, I get that graphs might not fully represent a real world scenario and will differ in results depending on usage. Mediatek probably just think that current CPU architecture already mature enough and A700 series doesn't hog too much power as of few generation away, talk about our CPU die also getting smaller (3nm,4nm, etc.). Its exciting that Mediatek at least trying to move to a newer architecture for its latest SoC, rather than making new SoC with older architecture such as Cortex-A76/A75.

            The, 23 Dec 2024No efficiency cores this time huh?Hopefully the chipset won... moreThe small-ish cores only clocked at 2.1 GHz, which relatively low. And that's the "efficiency cores"

            Though, considering D8300 in Poco has some thermal issue, can't really sure about how D8400 will perform irl

                  rizki1, 23 Dec 20247+ Gen 3 is on par with 8300, if this can get close to 2 mi... more7+ Gen 3 just gets 1.5 million. This will get 1.7-1.8 million and matching snapdragon 8 Gen 3 efficiency. I am using Redmi Turbo 4 in pre released software since three weeks.

                                  No efficiency cores this time huh?Hopefully the chipset won't heat up in less than 10 minutes of testing it.

                                  If I'm not mistaken the Dimensity 8400 can score around 1.8M Antutu score,so I'd say that this chipset will be placed between the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3,Snapdragon 8 Gen 2,Dimensity 9300/9300+ and Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.

                                  If I'm wrong feel free to correct me,no need to heat up for no reason 💀🙏

                                    Trust me, the Qualcomm fanboys are coming to talk about their emulator nonsense and their custom ROM shit.
                                    What they fail to recognise is that MediaTek is slowly winning. Slowly, but surely!

                                      Poco X7 Pro looking good. Only if Samsung used these for A56 or A56s...

                                        I pray to God this goes in some actually good value products and not just used in 1 or 2 phones and then forgotten.
