MediaTek Dimensity 720 SoC

MediaTek Dimensity 720 Released – Specs, AnTuTu, Features | Everything We Need Know

Today, MediaTek announces another processor in its range of Dimensity SoCs which is called MediaTek Dimensity 720. This one is a mid-end SoC and the first entry to the 7xx series of Dimensity processors. It’s similar to 820 and 800 but has a slightly decreased performance compared to them. However, it also enables mid-end performance smartphones at a much better price.

MediaTek Dimensity 720 Process

Similar to MediaTek 820, Dimensity 720 also uses the TSMC 7nm LPP process making it one of the best power-efficient SoCs in MTK lineup. It’s an N7 process.

MediaTek Dimensity 720 CPU

Dimensity 720 has the same configuration as Dimensity 820 which is an octa-core, dual-cluster design (4+4). However, there’s a change in the frequency. 720 uses 4 x Cortex A76 cores running at @2.0GHz and 2 x Cortex A55 cores which also runs @2.0GHz.

MediaTek Dimensity 720 GPU

The GPU section also experiences a change. Much like Dimensity 820, it’s still the mid-performance ARM Mali-G57 MC3 but instead of 5 cores, it’s reduced to 3 cores only. This will be suitable for low-end gaming including PUBG at low to mid graphics.

MediaTek hasn’t highlighted the HyperEngine feature in this SoC, so we assume that it’s not present.

MediaTek Dimensity 720 AI

MediaTek doesn’t state that it has the same APU used in Dimensity 800 and 820. However, the company says that it has an AI acceleration and support AI camera features.

MediaTek Dimensity 720 AnTuTu Score

The official MediaTek Dimesnity 720 AnTuTu score is around 301,380 points on Realme V5.

Dimensity 720 Camera

The camera section has also been stripped down. Now we have the single-camera support up to 64MP and dual-camera support up to 20MP+16MP only. Like said, we do have AI camera features and other camera features are completely changed removing Video HDR / Video NR / Video Bokeh / Video EIS / AI-Shutter / AI-AE / AI-AF / AI-AWB / AI-NR HDR / AI-HDR / AI-FD and replacing them with HDR-ISP, Multi-Frame NR, 3D Noise Reduction, Depth Engine, Warping Engine, AI-FD.

In simple words, HDR mode has been removed along with some other AI camera features, leaving only the basic AI camera features.

MediaTek Dimensity 720 Connectivity

Similar to other Dimensity SoCs, Dimensity 720 also supports 5G dual-sim networking with a max speed of 2.4Gbps. Other connectivity features are dual-band WiFi support and Bluetooth 5.1 module.

Other Features

While there are some features that have been removed from Dimensity 720, there are other features that have been added including Miravision (also present in 820), Voice Wakeup (VoW), and multiple voice assistants support.

The Verdict

Things to note:

  • 720 is the underpowered version of 800 and 820
  • There’s no APU 3.0 but AI accelerator instead
  • There’s no HyperEngine optimization
  • Camera features have been reduced

Things to appreciate:

  • 7nm process
  • Miravision and multiple voice assistants
  • Retained 2.0GHz frequency for Cortex A55 cores
  • Some new camera features added (but very basic)
