- A leaker out of China claims the Dimensity 9000 is significantly pricier than the Dimensity 1200.
- The tipster added that the Mediatek processor is still cheaper than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1.
Mediatek announced the Dimensity 9000 processor last week, and it’s positioned as the company’s first full-blown premium flagship processor. The new chipset is expected to duke it out against Qualcomm’s 2022 flagship silicon.
Those expecting similarly cheap Mediatek-powered phones as the Dimensity 1200-powered OnePlus Nord 2 and Realme X7 Max might be disappointed though. Weibo tipster Digital Chat Station has claimed that the Dimensity 9000 is almost double the price of the Dimensity 1200.
