MediaTek upgrades Helio X23 and X27 mobile processors

MediaTek Helio P10 launchChipset supplier MediaTek today has added new features to its mobile processors — MediaTek Helio X23 and Helio X27 to generate new business from smartphone companies.

The technology company said smartphones powered by the latest MediaTek Helio X23 and X27 mobile processors will be available soon.

Improvement in user experiences by improving the overall performance, camera quality and cut in power consumption are the main benefits from the latest version of Helio X23 and X27 chipsets from MediaTek.

Earlier, MediaTek introduced MediaTek Helio X20 and X25 on the Helio platform for smartphone makers.

“The new SoCs support premium dual camera photography and provide best in-class performance and power consumption,” said Jeffrey Ju, executive vice president and co-chief operating officer at MediaTek.

The chipset maker said that MediaTek Helio X23 and X27 both feature the Mediatek Tri-Cluster Deca-core architecture (2x ARM Cortex-A72 + 4x ARM Cortex-A53 + 4x ARM Cortex-A53) and MediaTek CorePilot 3.0 technology.

MediaTek Helio X27 offers a speed upgrade over the currently highest-end X25, operating at 2.6GHz for the ARM Cortex-A72 cores and 875MHz for the ARM Mali GPU.

MediaTek said both products deliver more than 20 percent processing improvement and increase in Web browsing and application launching speeds based on MediaTek-engineered advancements in the CPU/GPU heterogeneous computing scheduling algorithm.

MediaTek Helio X23 and X27 support dual camera photography with the upgraded MediaTek Imagiq image signal-processing solution. MediaTek Imagiq ISP is the first to integrate color and mono cameras and depth-of-field applications into a single ISP aimed at both quality and functionality for photography.

MediaTek Helio X23 and X27 boast significant improvements in image clarity, saturation, exposure control, portrait performance, and large aperture applications optimized through the color+mono smart dual camera and dual phase-detection systems.

The new chipsets include MiraVision EnergySmart Screen power-saving technology. It modifies the smart display parameters based on the on-screen content and ambient lighting for up to a 25 percent reduction in display power consumption.

MediaTek said the new Helio X23 and X27’s Envelope Tracking Module provides power-efficiency. It dynamically adjusts the output voltage based on signal strength from the power amplifier, averaging a 15 percent reduction in power consumption during peak output.
