MediaTek has recently be dominating the market, thanks to its Dimensity series processors, and now the Taiwanese company has launch another chipset called MediaTek Dimensity 1050.
The chipset is just a lower specced version of the Dimensity 1100 SoC, but it is also the company’s first processor to come with dual mmWave and sub-6GHz 5G connectivity.
MediaTek Dimensity 1050 Specifications and Features
The MediaTek Dimensity 1050 is an octa-core processor built using a 6nm process and has two ARM Cortex-A78 performance cores clocked at 2.5GHz. While the company hasn’t mentioned efficiency cores, they are likely to be six ARM Cortex-A55.
It also packs ARM Mali-G610 for graphics processing and has support for MediaTek’s HyperEngine 5.0 suite for providing additional optimization tools and features for better gaming performance.
The processor comes with support for Full HD+ resolution screens with up to 144Hz refresh rate along with support for hardware-accelerated AV1 video decoding, HDR10+ playback, and Dolby Vision.
It offers 3CC carrier aggregation on the sub-6GHz (FR1) spectrum and 4CC carrier aggregation on the mmWave (FR2) spectrum, and is claimed to deliver up to 53% faster downlink speeds compared to LTE + mmWave aggregation. It also supports Wi-Fi 6E and 2×2 MIMO antenna for superfast Wi-Fi connectivity.
