MediaTek’s Dimensity processors have finally been announced in India with an aim to democratize 5G connectivity. At the ongoing India Mobile Congress 2020, MediaTek India’s MD, Anku Jain announced the launch of Dimensity 800U 5G mobile chipsets in the country.
Originally launched in August this year, Dimensity chipsets have been limited to China and a handful of other markets. However, with this formal announcement Dimensity chipsets will now debut in India with the Realme X7 series slated to launch in the country early next month. The Realme X7 will feature a Dimensity 800U while the Realme X7 Pro will feature the more powerful Dimensity 1000 Plus SoC.
To recall, TechRadar had exclusively shared the news when it interviewed Mr Jain last month. He mentioned that more devices powered by Dimensity chipsets will be making their way into the country in January 2021.
