According to MediaTek President Joe Chen, the new chip will further "our mission to be the enablers of AI, supporting powerful applications that anticipate users' needs and adapt to their preferences, while also fuelling generative AI technology with on-device LoRA training and video generation."
In comparison to MediaTek's flagship chipset from the previous generation, the Dimensity 9300, the Dimensity 9400 provides 35% faster single-core performance and 28% faster multi-core performance.
The Dimensity 9400 is said by the manufacturer to be up to 40% more power-efficient than its predecessor, enabling customers to experience extended battery life. It is based on TSMC's second-generation 3nm technology.
"As the fourth-generation flagship chipset, the Dimensity 9400 continues to build on our momentum of steady growth in market share, and MediaTek's legacy of delivering flagship performance in the most efficient design for the best user experiences," Chen stated.
The Dimensity 9400 provides up to 80% quicker large language model (LLM) prompt performance and up to 35% higher power efficiency than the Dimensity 9300, enabling customers to benefit from the newest generative AI applications.
In order to provide a uniform interface between AI agents, third-party APKs, and models that effectively operate both edge AI and cloud services, the business says it is collaborating with developers.
