According to an insider known as Digital Chat Station, on March 1, MediaTek will officially introduce the Dimensity 8000 single-chip system. This model will be a step below the flagship Dimensity 9000: its expected performance is between Snapdragon 870 and Snapdragon 888. However, along with Dimensity 8000, the Chinese company will introduce also its more productive version - Dimensity 8100.

The informant says that the Dimensity 8100 components will operate at a higher frequency. Therefore, more performance, and in this case, Dimensity 8100 can reach the same level with Snapdragon 888. That is, MediaTek will have adequate competition with both Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and Snapdragon 888. This is an unpleasant situation for Qualcomm, and rumors say that that the company is accelerating the pre-production of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ so as not to lose its edge in the segment.

Dimensity 8000 is a 5nm platform with a CPU that includes four Arm Cortex-A78 cores up to 2.75 GHz and four Arm Cortex-A55 cores, as well as an Arm Mali-G510 MC6 GPU. The same components are likely to be found in the Dimensity 8100, but the frequency will be higher. However, here MediaTek can present some surprises.

According to an insider, some manufacturers are already considering not Dimensity 8000, but Dimensity 8100 for their smartphones. The first ready-made devices on the Dimensity 8000/8100 are attributed to Realme and Redmi. In the case of Redmi, it will be one of the models in the K50 line.

Digital Chat Station is a verified insider. Previously, he was the first to accurately announce the characteristics and release dates of Redmi K30, K40, Xiaomi Mi 10 and Mi 11.
