MediaTek Dimensity 1200 and 1100 5G 6nm architecture-based mobile SoCs announced

Realme will be among the first OEMs to launch a phone with the new Dimensity 1200.

Until today, the entire Dimensity series was fabbed on a 7nm process, but that just changed – the Dimensity 1200 and 1100 are MediaTek’s first 6nm chipsets. And they are the first to use the Cortex-A78 core. The two are based on the same raw hardware, but target slightly different bins.

The Dimensity 1200 is the premium offering. Its CPU has a 1+3+4 configuration with a A78 core is running at 3.0GHz, plus three more A78 cores at 2.6GHz and the usual quartet of power-efficient A55 cores running at 2.0GHz.

For comparison, the Dimensity 1000+ used an older A77 core that topped out at 2.6GHz. These numbers line up just right with ARM's official estimates - a 3.0GHz A78 is 20% faster than a 2.6GHz A77. That's for single-threaded performance, of course, as only one core in each chipset reaches those frequencies. Overall CPU performance is up by 22% and power efficiency is up 25% compared to previous generations.

As for the Dimensity 1100, it doesn’t have a prime core as such - all four of its Cortex-A78 cores run at 2.6GHz. However, even without higher clock speeds, the 1100 has an architectural advantage so it should have an edge over the Dimensity 1000+ in both single and multi-core performance. And then there’s the ancillary hardware.

Both chipsets use the same GPU. In fact, they are reusing the 1000-series GPU, the Mali-G77 with 9 cores for both chips. On the plus side, AV1 video now has hardware acceleration.

The Dimensity 1200 can treat the eye to 168 Hz displays and its 5-core ISP can handle camera sensors up to 200 MP. Also, with staggered HDR support for 4K videos (three exposures are merged into a single frame), the dynamic range is increased by 40%.

The 1100 chip is no slouch either, with support for 144 Hz displays and camera sensors up to 108 MP. Both phones are 20% faster in processing Night Shot and have a dedicated Night Mode for panoramas.

Several companies are champing at the bit to use MediaTek's new Dimensity 1200 and 1100 chips - including Realme, Xiaomi, Vivo and Oppo. They will release new phones around the end of March, beginning of April.

Why is Valentino Rossi called 'The Doctor'?

Valentino Rossi, one of the most famous sports personality around the globe. He is called the Greatest Of All Time or The GOAT by his Fans. The only rider in history to win 125, 250, 500 and MotoGP™ World Championships, Valentino Rossi dominated MotoGP™ with first Honda and then Yamaha, taking the crown five times in a row until Nicky Hayden won the title in 2006 and then back on top in 2008 and 2009. Also read: Why Rossi is still loved? He uses title "The Doctor" and a lot of his Fans are still not sure why? The following Information is from one of his short documentries. "Since dominating the 500 cc category later known as MotoGP, "The Doctor" has become the nickname of choice for Rossi. Two theories prevail as to why Rossi uses "The Doctor." One is that Rossi adopted the nickname upon having earned a degree, which in Italy entitles one to use the title "Doctor". Another, as spoken by Graziano himself, "The Doctor because, I don

Some Lesser Known Facts about Modi ji..!

Let's take a look at some of the least known interesting incidents from Modi ji's life..! Decades back, Congress leader Jairam Ramesh asked Modiji to join Congress. Ramesh said " Mr Modi, if you'd like to leave BJP, then there's a vacancy for you in Congress". But Modiji declined it with a classic reply! Modi ji replied " You'll face lots of problems, I am from Sangh parivar. The way you are dividing, perhaps you will have to answer this". This proved two things: * Decades back too, Congress party knew the calibre of Modiji * Modiji never compromised with his ethics. ********************************************************************************************************** In 2001, Atal ji called Modi ji & asked "Where are you?" Modiji replied "I am in Smashaan" Atal ji said " If you say you are in Smashaan, then what shall I tell ", And then Atal ji asked the reason for his visit to the graveyard! Modiji replied

The Story Behind So Less Records Being Broken in MotoGP these days

MotoGP, the fastest 2 wheel sport in the world, is facing a real problem in last few years, LACK OF NEW RECORDS. Not that the riders are not of that caliber any more, obviously we have Marc Marquez, Maverik Vinales, Quartarao, Pol and Valentino Rossi, the Doctor on the track, so what has changed? Michelin became the Tyre supplier in MotoGP in 2016 and still Bridgestone has track records for about half of the tracks on the calendar. Michelin has race records at Jerez, Le Mans, Losail, Misano, Mugello, Sachsenring, Sepang and Valencia. Bridgestone holds race records at Aragon, Assen, Brno, COTA, Motegi, Phillip Island and Termas. In a sport like MotoGP where technology is advancing at such fast pace, five years is really a very long time to keep your records. So what is the reason for that? 2 major reasons I can think of: Firstly, Michelin Tyres, although Michelin’s front slick precedes its rear slick whenever MotoGP riders take to the track, in terms of performance the front lags b
