Availability

The first smartphones powered by Dimensity 6100+ SoC will be available in the third quarter of 2023, said the company.

Commenting on the launch, CH Chen, Deputy General Manager of MediaTek’s Wireless Communications Business Unit, said:

As developing markets continue rolling out 5G networks at a rapid pace and operators in developed markets work to finish transitioning consumers from 4G LTE to 5G, there has never been a more vital need for chipsets that cater to the growing number of mainstream mobile devices that feature next-generation connectivity.

The MediaTek Dimensity 6000 series makes it possible for device makers to stay ahead of the curve with impressive upgrades that boost performance, increase power efficiency and reduce material costs.
