MediaTek unveiled the Dimensity 9600 Pro, its first smartphone processor manufactured on TSMC's 2-nanometre process, along with a Dimensity 9600M built on a 3-nanometre process. The company positioned the premium Pro model for flagship devices and the 9600M for a broader high-end segment. MediaTek said smartphones using both chips would launch soon. The release narrows the manufacturing-process gap between MediaTek and leading-edge rivals. It also raises the competitive stakes for smartphone makers seeking smaller-node processors for performance and energy efficiency.
