    MediaTek Helio P22

    MediaTek Helio
    P Series

    The IMG PowerVR GE8320 GPU operates up to a speedy 650MHz, while the powerful octa-core ARM Cortex-A53 CPU operating up to 2.0GHz.

    With its flexible LPDDR3/LPDDR4x memory controller, device manufacturers can easily choose to meet market needs and by balancing price and performance.

    MediaTek uses the TSMC 12nm FinFET chip production process; a significant generational upgrade for mainstream devices that delivers all the MediaTek Helio P22’s advanced features and awesome experiences while ensuring a new bar in long battery-life smartphones.

    Key Features

    Meanwhile, MediaTek CorePilot technology provides power aware scheduling, thermal management and UX monitoring, assigning the right workload to a number of cores at a specific frequency and voltage; perfectly matching the required performance with best power efficiency. This provides a sustained high-performance and consistently reliable user-experience.

    The MediaTek Imagiq suite in the Helio P22 supports a dual-camera system of up to 13+8MP, backed by a new hardware depth engine, enabling smartphones to capture professional-grade Depth of Field (Bokeh) effects. It also supports a single camera mode of up to 21MP with simulated bokeh effects.

    MediaTek’s upgraded Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) now includes a new Rolling Shutter Compensation (RSC) engine, effectively reducing the "jello effect" caused by fast action or panning in videos.

    Aligned with the existing Helio P series, the P22 offers excellent low-light performance, multi-frame noise reduction, and clear-image zoom technology. The Imagiq suite also includes features that automatically reduce aliasing, grain, and correct distortion. Additionally, the 3A suite features MediaTek’s Instant Auto Exposure (AE), an anti-overexposure hardware system with precise point focusing. The Instant AE, powered by a Camera Control Unit (CCU), provides significantly faster exposure adjustments when lighting conditions change suddenly.

    Light AI-enhancements such as Face ID (Face Unlock), Smart Photo Album, and Single-Cam/Dual-Cam Bokeh bring new experiences to mainstream smartphones. With MediaTek NeuroPilot support, developers and device makers have the best possible ecosystem that supports many common AI frameworks, and full compliance with Android Neural Networks API (Android NNAPI).

    MediaTek’s latest generation 4G LTE WorldMode modem introduces dual 4G SIM support with VoLTE/ViLTE for affordable yet capable Android devices.

    It features a highly power-efficient design, supporting either Cat-7 or Cat-4 (DL) speeds. TAS 2.0 smart antenna technology enhances performance and user experience by optimizing signal quality with the best antenna combination at the lowest power consumption.

    For the North American market, support for the new 600MHz band is included.

    Connectivity upgrades from the previous generation include multi-GNSS options (GPS, Glonass, Beidou, Galileo) with core enhancements delivering a 57% improvement in Hot TTFF, 10% accuracy improvement, and up to 24% lower power consumption, thanks to a dedicated sub-processor.

    Bluetooth 5 offers up to 2X faster speeds, 4X greater range, and 8X more broadcast capacity compared to the previous generation.

    Simultaneous BT and Wi-Fi (now 802.11ac) co-existence enables up to a 5X Wi-Fi throughput boost over the previous generation.

    It enables tall, 20:9 ratio HD+ (1600 x 720) resolution displays that offer a great balance between sharpness and power-efficiency.
