During the official launch of the flagship Dimensity 9000, MediaTek introduced the Dimensity 8000 chipset. MediaTek did not reveal the features of the Dimensity 8000 SoC, but an insider identified as Digital Chat Station on the Weibo social network did so on its behalf. And now he's revealed which smartphones would have Dimensity 8000 first.
Redmi and Realme will be mentioned in this regard: the first Dimensity 8000 will receive the Redmi K50 and the Realme GT Neo3 but nothing is known about Realme models at this time, the Redmi K50 series might already be mentioned.
Redmi's official representative previously announced that the Redmi K50 will have SoC Dimensity 9000, but now it's referring to Dimensity 8000. It appears that the base model of Redmi K50 will have Dimensity 8000. Given that the platform's performance is much better than the Snapdragon 870 in the Redmi K40, the newcomer is expected with performance boost. However, it is not as big as we would want. Insiders now attribute Dimensity 9000 to the Redmi K50 Gaming (which is natural given that the Redmi K40 Gaming is based on Dimensity 1200), and the Redmi K50 Pro and Redmi K50 Pro + will most likely be equipped with Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 (rather than the Snapdragon 888 found in the current Redmi K40 Pro and Redmi K40 Pro +). In general, there will be different variants of Redmi K50 smartphones, with different platform. As a result, there will be lots of options to choose from.
Digital Chat Station is a reliable source of information and was the first to correctly reveal the Redmi K30, K40, Xiaomi Mi 10 and Mi 11 specs and release dates.
