Realme has confirmed that it will be the first smartphone brand to bring a Dimensity 1200-powered phone to India.
MediaTek, the largest chipmaker for the third quarter of 2020, today announced the launch of the Dimensity 1200 processor in India. The latest Dimensity 1200 processor is the company’s highest-end chip and is big on performance for mid-range phones. Following the launch, Realme will be India’s first smartphone brand to introduce a Dimensity 1200-powered smartphone, likely the Realme GT Neo. The GT Neo launch took place in China late last month and the company said the phone is its camera flagship. The MediaTek Dimensity 1200 processor is built using the 6-nanometre technology allowing for 22 per cent faster CPU performance over the previous generation. “The SoC will mark a new beginning for the smartphone segment in India with its flagship features that blend the best of all worlds — be it processor technology, camera, AI features, gaming or connectivity enhancements,” said MediaTek in a statement. And while you can expect the Dimensity 1200-powered phone to be good enough for intensive tasks, it is no match for the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset that powers the top-end Android phones right now, such as the OnePlus 9 Pro.
