Mediatek debuts an all-new mobile processor to take on Qualcomm

In the smartphone world, the word Snapdragon has set itself as a gold standard, with others playing catch up. However, if the latest news is anything to go by, it looks like the competition is about to get real as Mediatek has come out with an all-new mobile processor that aims at taking the Snapdragon processor head on.

The company claims that the new processor, named the Dimensity 9300 has much better performance and handles power consumption a lot better than the Dimensity 9200. This, coupled with TSMC’s 3rd-generation 4nm+ technology makes it a much more potent combination, better suited at taking a swing at the Snapdragon. To drive home the point, Mediatek has also revealed key benchmark scores, which shows that the Dimensity 9300 processor is on par with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor.
