While the chipset maker does not clarify what kind of platforms it will unveil, we expect to see the MT6893 come to life - the chip is codenamed “alps” and is said to be manufactured on a 6nm process.

Rumors claim the new Dimensity chipset will be the one for flagships and will come with an overclocked 3 GHz Cortex-A78 main CPU core. Other specs, leaked through AnTuTu, suggest a Mali-G77 GPU, LPDDR5 RAM, and UFS 3.1 storage support.

We also expect to see new 5G-ready additions to the Dimensity 700-series and 800-series.
