MediaTek Dimensity 930 vs 920

Any links to online stores should be assumed to be affiliates. The company or PR agency provides all or most review samples. They have no control over my content, and I provide my honest opinion.

Today, MediaTek has announced two new 5G chipsets to its quickly expanding Dimensity range.

The two new chipsets are classed in the lower end of the premium line-up according to Mediatek, I’d describe them as upper mid-range.

Both chipsets are a little different than expected. They both use the same fabrication process and CPU design we saw on the MediaTek Dimensity 920, but they have completely changed the GPU.

This then also leads to mismatched naming conventions.

The new Mediatek Dimensity 1050, you’d expect to sit in between the Dimensity 1000 and 1100 with a 4×4 CPU design. But, it has the same CPU as the Dimensity 930 and 920 due to the 2×6 CPU arrangement. However, it uses a more modern Arm-Mali G610 GPU compared to the Mali-G68 MC4 on the 920.

Then the Dimensity 930 has 2xA78 CPU cores and 6xA55 as expected; however, Mediatek has ditched the Arm Mali-based GPUs they have been using on most chipsets in favour of the Imagination BXM-2-256.

Looking at the Mediatek timeline graph, they are positioning the Dimensity 1050 below the 1000 & 1100 then the Dimensity 930 below the 920.

Not confusing at all. However, what is important is price vs performance and Mediatek have a good track record here.
