The company also states to have achieved an AnTuTu score of 2,130,000+, which roughly matches the AnTuTu score of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">MediaTek also boasts<strong> a 46% increase in GPU performance compared to the previous processor <\/strong>at the same power levels, with frame rates higher than its rival in certain gaming benchmarks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Furthermore, it offers significantly superior deep learning performance compared to the Dimensity 9200, thanks to the new APU 790 AI processor, providing up to 8 times faster processing speed and stable image generation in less than a second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>If these claims hold true, it is indeed impressive, though real-world tests will be necessary to confirm these statements<\/strong>.
