MediaTek has just announced the Helio P95 SoC which boasts 64MP sensor support as well as improved AI over the Helio P90 while keeping the CPU, GPU, and other general specs.
The Helio P95 is said to have a 10% higher ETHZ benchmark score for AI in smartphones compared to that of the Helio P90.
| Helio P95 | |
| Process | TSMC 12 nm FinFET |
| CPU | 2x Cortex-A75 @ 2.2 GHz 6x Cortex-A55 @ 2GHz |
| GPU | IMG PowerVR GM 9446 @ 970 MHz |
| Photo | 24+16 MP / 64 MP @ 30fps |
| Display | 2520 x 1080 (Full HD+) at 25:9 |
| Modem | Cat 12 DL / Cat 13 UL, 4×4 MIMO, 3CA, 256QAM |
| Connectivity | Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth 5.0 |
The new chipset, along with the 64MP camera support, brings more AI tweaks including 5-person human pose tracking, full-body avatar AR, 3D pose tracking, and multiple object and scene optimization and recognition. This is, of course, if companies want to activate these features in their devices.
What wasn’t announced though was how long before we see the new SoC on new devices. It shouldn’t take too long given that it’s nearly identical to the P90.
