  • 4X Efficiency Cores: Arm Cortex-A55 up to 2GHz

Get the most out of 5G everyday

We’ve designed the most power efficient and feature-filled 5G-integrated modem that gives you incredible everyday 5G NR experiences.

5G Made for Everywhere: ‘5G Elevator Mode’ & ‘5G HSR Mode’ specialist enhancements ensure seamless 5G experiences with immediate recovery time and reliably faster speeds, respectively.

5G All Day: MediaTek 5G UltraSave power saving enhancements work with both 5G Standalone and non-Standalone networks; leading the industry with the lower power use in 5G Standalone network environments.

5G All Spectrum: 5G-CA Mixed Duplex across TDD/FDD gives users faster average speeds, over 30% greater layer coverage and a seamless handover between two 5G connection areas.

5G Tested & Certified by TUV Rheinland in 72 real-world scenarios, including 5G data transmission speeds, network environment experience, 5G power consumption, call and data concurrency, 5G/Wi-Fi 6 network handover performance, stability and power efficiency.

True Dual 5G: The Dimensity 1200 is the first 5G chip to provide True Dual 5G SIM (5G SA + 5G SA). Dual 5G Standalone connectivity provides a more consistent 5G user experience with the best quality voice and video call services (VoNR) via both cellular connections.
