Dimensity 9200 powered Vivo X90 fails to impress in first Geekbench run

[Redaktion]

The MediaTek Dimensity 9200 scored 1,353 and 4,055 points in Geekbench's single and multi-core tests. It powered a Vivo X90 with 12 GB of RAM and Android 12. Vivo will launch it and its Snapdragon 8 Gen 2-powered siblings later in November.

What is exactly so impressive? that's what the dim. 9000 scores. heck, it even has a lower MT score than dim. 9000.

The day I got my Vivo X80, it scored 1228 for single-core and 4018 for multi-core on Geekbench 5 in the very first test. Seems like Dimensity 9200 isn't much about CPU performance.

Dimensity 9200/9000 use the same A710 and A510 cores at the same clocks, on the same node. The only new core is the X3 which can help it deliver up to a 10% gain in Geekbench 5. They are claiming nice improvements in GPU/AI, and power efficiency.

Completely empty parrot championships. Now more important is high-quality strapping for modern SoCs. A smartphone in 2023 MUST have 4k@60fps video recording with OIS, a notification light (with a high contrast IPS matrix, which is good instead of a flickering AMOLED) and have other important elements like an audio jack for high-quality wired headphones, a video output (which is built into the 100% Medaitek / Qualcomm SoC) display port not lower than dp1.4b, so that you can turn a modern smartphone into a portable workplace with a monitor, keyboard and mouse via an externally powered usb-c hub. But in most models, none of this is. Therefore, most modern smartphones are technological garbage.

And most importantly, stupid or intentionally doing this, manufacturers of all smartphones should stop the criminal practice of using the battery charging mode, in which even a slight deviation of the charge from 100% again leads to recharging the battery, thereby all of them deliberately remove the possibility of using a smartphone 100% of the time connected to charging, like laptops, where there are special charging modes to conserve battery that exclude recharging the battery, at least until the charge drops below 95% or in the form of user-configurable thresholds, as in normal business models. This makes it impossible to use smartphones without wasting battery life on constant recharging and without worrying about the operating time when they work as a laptop or sound player for an external DAC with amplifier, etc. stationary applications.

So you say. I don't care about any of those things. I'd like better battery life though.

Small correction: it's Armv9, not Armv8. I wonder if the software - both the system and the benchmark - is optimized and built for v9 yet? SVE2 will be significant in some use cases.
