But it is not yet clear what kind of device this will be
MediaTek has been the leader in the number of SoCs produced for smartphones for several years now, and its top-end Dimensity platforms are capable of competing with and even defeating top-end Snapdragon SoCs. This may seem strange, but despite all this, not a single smartphone with SoC Dimensity 9300 is sold in the United States, and before that it was not sold on previous generations of top-end MediaTek platforms. But that's finally set to change this year.
Only six months until Snapdragon 8 Gen 4? The first smartphones based on this platform are expected in October
MediaTek itself said that later this year the first premium smartphone for this market based on the MediaTek SoC will be released in the United States. Most likely, we are talking about either Dimensity 9300 or 9300+, which will be presented on May 7. There is also a possibility that the smartphone in question will be based on the Dimensity 9400 and in this case will be released at the end of the year.
True, it is not yet clear what kind of device it will be. It is worth remembering that all those numerous Chinese flagships from Vivo, Oppo, Honor, and so on are not sold in the United States. Perhaps some of these companies will enter the American market, but this is not at all necessary, since there are still at least Motorola and OnePlus.
