Now that more chipset companies are bringing new flagship chip, the race for the most powerful and efficient has started. MediaTek has begun to tease the first smartphones with a 4nm process chip inside.
Vivo is among the first OEMs to use this chip. And a new report claims that a Vivo phone powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 2000 chip is the first Android device to get score over 1 million points in AnTuTu.

According to DCS, the features of the Dimensity 2000 includes; Cortex-X2 core at 3.0 GHz, three Cortex-A710 cores and four A510. Samsung’s Exynos 2200 is also said to be targeting 3.0 GHz for its X2 core and a leaked photo of a Snapdragon 898-powered phone showed the X2 core at same 3.0GHz.
This means that the three chipsets may have similar CPU performance, but they will have different GPUs – the Dimensity 2000 uses ARM Mali-G710 MC10, an AMD RDNA 2 GPU for the Exynos 2200 and a new Adreno 670 for the Snapdragon 898.
Of all three chipsets, only Qualcomm has confirmed the expected release date for Snapdragon 898. Both MediaTek and Samsung is yet to reveal any info as to when we can expect their chipsets to be released.
