With technology constantly upgrading itself every day, the demand for more advanced and enhanced smartphones is also increasing every day. With features that are more aligned with the needs of smartphone users, people need devices to deliver efficiency and performance. MediaTek is always delivering the best in class smartphone chipsets. The recently launched MediaTek Dimensity 8020, adds another SoC successor to the 8000 family. The chipset is built on the advanced TSMC N6 (6nm-class).

It helps in extending battery life and is known to have a highly power-efficient design, enabling device makers to create attractive, slim, and light 5G smartphones with incredible performance that lasts longer than ever. It boasts of sensor fusion technology that provides extended, accurate dead reckoning location performance to ensure users always know where they are.

All thanks to an Octa-core CPU consisting of Arm Cortex-A78 and Arm Cortex-A55, and a powerful nine-core GPU, one can just sit back and enjoy gaming experiences with HDR and reliably fast FPS in top titles.

The chipset promises a slew of features to look forward to -

Gaming performance-
Thanks to MediaTek HyperEngine, the chip provides the much-needed power-efficiency boosts leading to intelligent performance and making them way ahead of their competitors. The Octa-core CPU with four performance Arm Cortex-A78 processors with clocking speeds up to 2.6GHz, and a powerful nine-core GPU, make way for an awesome gaming experience with HDR and fast FPS in top titles.

Capturing stunning panoramas and videos in 4k HDR -
The multi-core MediaTek APU 570 guarantees unmatched accuracy with AI Super Panorama. With AI Noise Reduction, AI Exposure, and AI Object Tracking one can expect the most stunning and beautiful panoramic images.

The ‘staggered’ 4K HDR helps record the detail of three images per frame of footage. With multi-person bokeh in video filming along with accurate scene segmentation allows users to produce eye-catching cinematic group films that are great for sharing.

Incredible displays —
MediaTek Dimensity 8020 phone users would experience ultra-fast Full HD+ displays up to 144Hz, or greater resolution QHD+ up to 90Hz benefitting both gamers and non-gamers enabling faster response for everyday experience with notably smoother scrolling of webpages, and social streams, and animations in apps.

Faster 5G Network —
With the 8000 chipset family known to be providing 5G cutting-edge technologies, 5G-CA provides higher average speed and a seamless handover between two 5G connection areas across a coverage layer. The Dual 5G SIM is known to provide support for premium VoNR voice and video call services from both connections.

MediaTek 5G UltraSave-
MediaTek 5G UltraSave makes the chip enhanced with even more 5G power-saving technologies.

Location identification with Sensor Fusion —
MediaTek’s sensor fusion technology provides extended accurate dead reckoning location performance in order to make sure that users always know their location even when they are underground or in urban valleys and no dual-band GNSS is available.
