1. It is revealed that MediaTek Dimensity 9400 has entered the 3nm era

According to technology self-media, MediaTek Dimensity 9400 mobile platform continues the full-core architecture design of Dimensity 9300. It uses TSMC’s 3nm process for the first time, and its target performance is to surpass its rival Qualcomm Snapdragon. Dragon 8 Gen4, Xiaomi, OPPO, vivo and other brands will use this chip.

As MediaTek’s first 3nm mobile phone chip, the Dimensity 9400 uses TSMC’s N3E process. Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen4 also uses N3E, and the Apple A17 Pro, which has been mass-produced and launched, uses TSMC’s N3B.

Industry insiders pointed out that TSMC N3B’s yield and metal stacking performance are very poor. For these reasons, N3B will not become TSMC’s main node. In contrast, N3E will use fewer EUV lithography layers, reducing it from 25 layers. By the 21st layer, it is easier to put into production and the yield can be higher. The cost will naturally be reduced, but the transistor density will be reduced.

In addition to using the 3nm process, MediaTek Dimensity 9400 is suspected of using a self-developed architecture solution and will not use Arm Cortex X5.

Currently, Dimensity 9300 has surpassed Snapdragon 8 Gen3 and Apple A17 Pro in multi-core performance. The Dimensity 9400, which will debut next year, is worth looking forward to.

2. It is revealed that the iPhone 17 Pro is equipped with a 48-megapixel periscope telephoto lens

According to the latest news, the iPhone 16 Pro will be equipped with a 48-megapixel ultra-wide-angle and a 12-megapixel periscope telephoto lens, while the iPhone 17 Pro goes one step further and is equipped with a 48-megapixel periscope telephoto lens. With ultra-wide angle, 48-megapixel periscope telephoto and 48-megapixel main camera, it has become Apple’s first full-series 48-megapixel top-end imaging phone.

Not only that, iPhone 17 Pro will also support spatial video recording function. Through the collaborative work of the two cameras, users can capture more vivid and three-dimensional three-dimensional videos without missing any wonderful moments.

What’s even more exciting is that users can transfer spatial videos captured by iPhone 17 Pro to Vision Pro devices. As an important part of Apple's layout of the "spatial computing era", Vision Pro will bring users a fully immersive viewing experience. This seamless collaboration across devices allows users to switch freely between different devices and enjoy the wonders of the virtual world.

Since the debut of Vision Pro, Apple has been committed to promoting the development of spatial computing technology. Now, the iPhone 15 Pro series already supports spatial video recording. Users can share these unique spatial videos with friends who own Vision Pro, making the other party feel like they are actually there.

However, this cutting-edge technology package does not come cheap. The price of Vision Pro is as high as US$3,499, which is equivalent to about 25,000 yuan; coupled with an iPhone 17 Pro priced at 10,000 yuan, the price of the entire device will exceed 35,000 yuan. For ordinary consumers, this is undoubtedly a considerable investment.

3. Intel Sharp core graphics performance doubled

The Intel Core Ultra platform built using Intel 4 process technology is officially released. In addition to using a new process technology and architectural design, the biggest surprise brought by the Core Ultra platform is not only excellent AI In addition to the acceleration capabilities, the powerful graphics performance of Ruixuan Core is also eye-catching.

First of all, we might as well take a look at the basic specifications of the Ruixuan core display integrated with the Core Ultra platform. Taking the Core Ultra 7 155H processor as an example, its sharp core display has 8 GPU cores, 128 Vector Engines (vector engines), 8 ray tracing units, the geometry rendering pipeline has been greatly improved, and 8 new hardware have been added The light tracing unit has a new out-of-order sampling function to further increase accuracy and performance.

And it also integrates all the core features of high-performance independent graphics, such as support for DX12U, support for AV1 codec, support for DP4A artificial intelligence acceleration engine, and support for Intel XeSS.

According to the official test data, the performance of Intel Sharp Core Display is 2 times higher than that of Iris Xe Core Display. The following is the improvement percentage for many mainstream games. For example, the newly popular "Baldur's Gate 3" has improved by 100%, and the two games "Resident Evil 8" and "Mount and Blade 2" have improved by more than 90%.

can see that the newer the game, the greater the improvement. This is because the driver update of Intel Sharp GPU has always provided Day 0 support for new games, so it has achieved very good adaptation to new games.
