MediaTek is set to unveil its latest flagship application processor, the Dimensity 9400+, in a few days, with its debut occurring on the Vivo X200s. Although both the chipset and the smartphone have yet to receive official announcements, early benchmarks have surfaced, hinting at the impressive capabilities of the new processor.
A reviewer who obtained a unit has run the device through Geekbench, achieving a single-core score of 2949 and a multi-core score of 9258. These scores closely match the performance of the Snapdragon 8 Elite, which posted single-core and multi-core results of 3049 and 9793, respectively.
The enhanced Dimensity 9400+ outperforms its predecessor due to an increase in clock speed for its Cortex-X925 Prime High-Performance CPU core, now operating at 3.7 GHz compared to 3.63 GHz for the Dimensity 9400. Additionally, the Cortex-A720 Efficiency CPU cores have also experienced a speed boost, running at 2.4 GHz instead of 2.0 GHz.
It’s important to note that MediaTek has maintained the same GPU architecture in the Dimensity 9400+, featuring the Immortalis G925-MC12, which runs at a constant clock speed of 1.612 GHz, identical to its predecessor. Both versions are produced by TSMC using their advanced second-generation 3nm process node (N3E).
The specifications of the Dimensity 9400+ include one Cortex-X925 Prime core at 3.73 GHz, three Cortex-X4 cores up to 3.30 GHz, and four Cortex-A720 cores optimized for efficiency. On the other hand, the Snapdragon 8 Elite comprises two Oryon Phoenix L Prime cores clocked at 4.32 GHz and six Oryon Phoenix M Performance cores reaching up to 3.53 GHz.
The Snapdragon 8 Elite is featured in high-end phones such as the Samsung Galaxy S25 line and OnePlus 13, while availability for the Dimensity 9400+ in the U.S. remains limited, primarily found in overseas devices.
