MediaTek releases 7nm 5G chipset
 

Dimensity 800 Series

MediaTek released its Dimensity 800 Series 5G chipset family that it claims will bring flagship features, power and performance to New Premium mid-range 5G smartphones.

MediaTek’s Dimensity 5G chipset family offers system-on-chips (SoCs) with integrated 5G modems. It claims single-chip solutions offer an unrivalled combination of connectivity, multimedia, AI and imaging innovations packed into a 7nm chip.

The first devices featuring Dimensity 800 Series SoCs are expected to launch in the first half of 2020.

MediaTek’s wireless business unit boss TL Lee said MediaTek already launched its flagship 5G smartphone solution, the Dimensity 1000, and with the 800 series 5G chipset family, it was bringing 5G to the mid-tier and mass market.

“Everyone should have access to great technology. The Dimensity 800 Series will power the New Premium segment for 5G, bringing consumers flagship smartphone features and performance at mid-range price points.”

The Dimensity 800 Series integrates MediaTek’s 5G modem in one design, delivering platform power savings compared to two-chip alternatives. The Dimensity 800 5G SoC supports 5G with two carrier aggregation (2CC CA) for 30 per cent wider high-speed layer coverage, more seamless 5G handover, and higher average throughput performance compared to other solutions, with a single carrier (1CC, no CA).

The chipset is designed to support both stand-alone and non-standalone sub-6GHz networks. It includes multi-mode support for every cellular connectivity generation from 2G to 5G and supports Dynamic Spectrum Sharing (DSS).
