MediaTek Helio G90 and G90T Debuts – A76 2.05GHz, 10GB memory!

Before today’s conference, MediaTek released the Helio G90 series SoCs (including G90 and G90T) claiming to be specially prepared for the ultimate gaming experience.

In terms of basic specifications, the G90 series adopts octa-core design and is based on the 12nm process. It’s a Cortex A76 + A55 combination where the high core frequency is 2.05GHz. Getting into details, there are two high A76 cores and six A55 cores. The GPU has been upgraded to Mali-G76 3EEMC4, with a frequency of 800MHz. Moreover, as a mid-end SoC it supports up to 10GB LPDDR4X-2133 memory, eMMC5.1/UFS 2.1 flash memory. The ISP support up to 64MP single camera, 24MP + 16MP dual-camera, 240FPS slow-motion shooting, 4G baseband Cat.12 full Netcom (3CA, 4×4 MIMO), Bluetooth 5.0 and HDR10 technology.
