As you know from our previous news, MediaTek is working on a new flagship chip, which should be similar in architecture to the chipset Exynos 1080 and built on a 6nm manufacturing process. Now the chip, which is known so far only under the codename MT6893, has appeared in another benchmark. In Geekbench 5, it achieved a comparable result to Qualcomm's current flagship chip, the Snapdragon 865.
Specifically, the MT6893 scored 886 points in the single-core test and 2948 points in the multi-core test. For comparison, the Snapdragon 8-powered OnePlus 865 scored 886 and 3104 points, and the Redmi K30 Ultra powered by MediaTek's current flagship Dimensity 1000+ chip scored 765 and 2874 points.

According to unofficial information, the chipset will have four Cortex-A78 processor cores, the main one of which is said to run at a frequency of 2,8-3 GHz and the others at 2,6 GHz, and four economical Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 2 GHz. The chip should include a Mali-G77 MC9 GPU. Other hardware parameters, such as DSP (digital signal processor) or the type of supported memories, are not known at this time.
Let us recall that the performance of the MT6893 was already measured in the Geekbench 4 benchmark, where it scored 4022 points in the single-core test and 10 points in the multi-core test. In the former it was about 982% faster than the Dimensity 8+, but in the latter it was about 1000% slower.
The new chip should be intended mainly for the Chinese market and could appear in smartphones at a price level of around 2 yuan (less than 000 thousand crowns).
