it reminds me of time when mediatek used to make 4x cortex A53 socs with crappy gpus on 28nm, now they are milking the g90 way too much

DarlingYext, 12 May 2025Yeah, but budget 5G phones are either more expensive, or ha... more5G is not feature
Its just the newer revision of the modem.
To be honest, to add 5G, it would only cost mediatek (or qualcom) less than USD 1.
Because they already have the 5G design.
This is just a market segmentation, designed to make product have an expiring date.

DarlingYext, 12 May 2025Don't worry, they will use it.Tecno Spark 40 will debut G200 and Infinix will likely use it too if they have a 4G variant for their upcoming Zero 50 phones.

Eric20, 12 May 2025LTE Category 13 is very slow in 2025. It was slow even 4 ye... moreIf you read the spec carefully,
Usually the budget SOC modem is way bellow in term of connectivity
So naturally have a lower CAT
(i.e. If the expensive one can handle 300MHz, the cheap one can only handle 80MHz, thus slower speed)
And they also reduce the antena, i.e. from 8x8 maybe to 1x1
