MediaTek Dimensity 1080 vs MediaTek Dimensity 8050
MediaTek Dimensity 1080
► remove from comparison
The Mediatek Dimensity 1080 is a mid-range ARM SoC (system-on-a-chip) that can be used in both smartphones and tablets (mainly Android). The SoC integrates two ARM Cortex-A78 cores with up to 2.6 GHz for demanding tasks and six power-saving ARM Cortex-A55 cores with clock rates of up to 2 GHz.
The chip has an integrated sub-6 GHz 5G modem including dual-SIM support that can reach a maximum download speed of up to 2.77 Gbit/s. Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) is supported as well as Bluetooth 5.2.;
The memory controller copes with LPDDR4x or LPDDR5 working memory as well as UFS 3.1 mass storage. As an integrated graphics card, the SoC uses the ARM Mali-G68 MC4, which supports displays with 120 Hz as well as HDR10+ at a maximum resolution of 2,520 x 1,440 pixels.
The differences to the Dimensity 920 are minor, only the slightly higher maximum clock and a support for higher-resolution cameras can be found.
The MediaTek Dimensity 1080 is still manufactured in 6 nm.
MediaTek Dimensity 8050
► remove from comparison
The MediaTek Dimensity 8050 is an ARM-based SoC (System-on-a-Chip) manufactured at TSMC using the 6nm process. It supports all current mobile standards including dual-SIM 5G (5G SA & NSA, max 4.7 Gbps download and 2.5 Gbps upload). The SoC also supports Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2.
The MediaTek Dimensity 8050 was specially designed for use in Android smartphones and is classified in the upper mid-range in terms of performance.
The CPU part consists of three clusters: a fast performance core, based on the ARM Cortex A78 architecture and clocked at up to 3 GHz. The second cluster consists of three Cortex-A78 cores with up to 2.6 GHz. Four ARM Cortex-A55 cores with up to 2 GHz are installed as a power-saving cluster.
The integrated ARM Mali-G77 MC9 graphics unit can drive displays with a resolution of up to 2,560 x 1,080 and a refresh rate of up to 144 Hz (possibly only with Full HD+).
Technically, the SoC is similar to the older Dimensity 1300.
