MediaTek becomes the largest domestic mobile phone SOC supplier: 5nm chips are being planned


According to the news on January 25, the excellent performance of Dimensity series 5G chips will allow MediaTek to surpass Qualcomm in its market share in 2020, becoming the largest smartphone supplier in the Chinese market for the first time.

Statistics from CINNO Research, a third-party market research organization, show that in 2020, smartphone processor shipments in the Chinese market will be 307 million, a year-on-year decline of 20.8% compared to 2019.

Among them, Qualcomm's shipments in the Chinese smartphone market shrank as much as 48.1% year-on-year, HiSilicon shrank by 17.5% year-on-year due to policy reasons, and MediaTek rose strongly.

Data shows that MediaTek has become the largest smartphone supplier in the Chinese market for the first time with a market share of 31.7%.

Last year, MediaTek released the Dimensity 1000, 800, and 700 series of 5G mobile chips. The annual shipment of Dimensity series 5G chips exceeded 45 million sets.

The popularity of the 5G market has led to rapid growth in demand for 5G chip products. MediaTek Dimensity series products cover mid-to-high-end, with the help of 5G mobile phones "mobile phone replacement wave", quickly seize the market and increase share; at the same time, Dimensity series products have strong technical strength, whether it is running scores or self-configuration, they are at the same level as the industry The products are not divided into equal parts, and the excellent product cost performance has been recognized by many mobile phone manufacturers.

On January 20, MediaTek’s main new product Tianji 1200 came out in 2021, continuing to impact the high-end market of the industry.

In a media interview with MediaTek Dimensity 1200, Li Yanji, deputy general manager of MediaTek’s wireless communications division, said that from the Dimensity 1000+ released last year to the Dimensity 1200 released this year, MediaTek has been on the road to high-end and continued Our best products and technology, let our customers and users enjoy.

Let us first review the basic parameters of Dimensity 1200.

Dimensity 1200 is manufactured based on TSMC’s 6-nanometer advanced technology. The CPU adopts a 1+3+4 flagship three-plex architecture design. It includes an Arm Cortex-A78 super core with the main frequency of up to 3.0GHz, with a nine-core GPU and a six-core MediaTek. APU 3.0, and dual-channel UFS 3.1.

In terms of 5G performance, Dimensity 1200 supports independent (SA) and non-independent (NSA) networking modes, 5G dual-carrier aggregation (2CC CA), dynamic spectrum sharing (DSS), MediaTek 5G UltraSave power-saving technology, and 5G SA/NSA Dual card 5G standby under dual-mode network, dual card VoNR voice service, etc. It also supports the Sub-6GHz full bandwidth and large bandwidth of global 5G operators.

Li Junnan, technical planning director of MediaTek’s wireless communications division, said that we will not fall behind in the pursuit of advanced technology. Regarding the use of the 6nm process for the new product, he responded: " In terms of the Dimensity 1200 plan, we believe that TSMC’s advanced 6nm will have more stable and better performance. Combined with the latest ARM CPU architecture optimization, we currently see It can achieve the best balance between performance and energy efficiency. We believe that it can bring consumers and users the best experience, or an excellent experience."

"Our 5nm chips and plans are underway," Li Junnan said.

It is reported that Redmi will launch the Dimensity 1200 chip for the first time. In addition, OPPO, Vivo, and Realme have also attended the Dimensity 1200 conference, and follow-up or launch related products equipped with Dimensity 1200 chips.

Li Yanji also said that major domestic customers will basically adopt the Dimensity 1200, and a number of terminals will be released in the first half of the year.

In 2021, the competition in the chip field will become more intense. MediaTek has successively deployed low-, mid-, and high-end products. It is believed that MediaTek will show stronger technical strength in 2021 and continue to lead the domestic market.
