MediaTek launched two new chipsets to the SoC market today –
the Helio P23 and the Helio P30. Gadgets with the ICs will hit the market in
the last quarter of this year, the P30 will however be limited to China.

Similar to all Helio P-series chipsets, the P23 and the P30
come with octa-core CPU (four Cortex-A53 clocked at 2.3 GHz and four more at
1.65 GHz). The GPU is powered by Mali and is the G71MP2 with respectively 770
MHz or 950 MHz frequency. This is an update from the Mali T880 configuration in
the P20 and the P25.

According to MediaTek, the new SoC incorporate latest
generation IP block to draw them closer to the flagship Helio X30 (present used
by the Meizu Pro 7 Plus). The tech company also gather all the details in
simpler terms – the P23 and the P30 will provide more versatility when capturing
pictures with the dual camera setup and sharing them and browse.

The P23 can work with dual 13 MP cameras or a single 24 MP
sensor, while the P30 can support as high 16 MP dual or 25 MP single cam on the
back.

The sources said MediaTek now incorporated DSDS (Dual Sim
Dual Standby) mode, allowing both SIM cards to run LTE connection.

MediaTek claims there is global interest for the Helio P23,
but the P30 will stay in China, majorly due to its price. This might later
change if there is demand from phone makers.
