New flagship chipset further strengthens industry leadership in gaming, compute, imaging, and AI
MediaTek, the world’s leading innovator in smartphone chipsets, has officially introduced its most advanced mobile platform yet — the MediaTek Dimensity 9500. Designed to push the boundaries of on-device AI, console-grade gaming, and power efficiency, the Dimensity 9500 is set to power the next wave of flagship 5G smartphones.
At its core, the Dimensity 9500 features a third-generation All Big Core CPU design, combining a 4.21GHz ultra core, three premium cores, and four performance cores, paired with four-lane UFS 4.1 storage. This architecture delivers up to 29% faster single-core performance and 16% stronger multi-core output compared to the previous generation, while consuming 55% less power at peak performance — giving users longer battery life without compromising productivity.
“As AI becomes part of everyday life, consumers want devices that feel smarter, faster, and more personal without sacrificing battery life,” said JC Hsu, Corporate SVP at MediaTek. “The Dimensity 9500 delivers exactly that — breakthrough AI, top-tier performance, and efficiency, wrapped in a premium mobile experience.”
AI at the Core
With the ninth-generation MediaTek NPU 990 and Generative AI Engine 2.0, the Dimensity 9500 doubles compute power while reducing power consumption by up to 25%. It supports BitNet 1-bit large model processing, always-on small models, 100% faster 3B-parameter LLM output, 128K token text processing, and the industry’s first 4K ultra-high-resolution image generation — unlocking a proactive, personalized, and secure AI-driven user experience.
Gaming Like Never Before
The integrated Arm G1-Ultra GPU brings a 33% boost in peak performance and 42% better power efficiency, with frame interpolation up to 120FPS for smooth, console-level raytracing. Partnerships with leading studios ensure compatibility with Unreal Engine 5.6 MegaLights and UE5.5 Nanite, delivering lifelike lighting and AAA-level rendering to mobile.
Imaging & Connectivity Breakthroughs
With MediaTek Imagiq 1190, users can capture up to 200MP photos, cinematic 4K 60FPS portrait video, and benefit from NPU-powered autofocus and RAW-domain pre-processing.
The connectivity suite features MiraVision adaptive display, AI-enhanced Bluetooth calls, Wi-Fi fast transfer, and advanced 5G with 5CC carrier aggregation. AI-driven optimization reduces 5G power consumption by 10% and Wi-Fi by 20%, while boosting accuracy in AI positioning by 20% and cutting network latency by 50%.
Driving the Future of Mobile
As the world’s largest supplier of smartphone SoCs, MediaTek continues to shape the industry through innovation and deep ecosystem partnerships. The Dimensity 9500 represents the company’s commitment to enabling flagship experiences — from next-gen AI features to console-level gaming — in collaboration with leading OEMs, game studios, and software developers.
Flagship smartphones powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 are expected to debut in Q4 2025.
