During a technical conference about one of its upcoming smartphones, the Xiaomi K60 Ultra, the Chinese manufacturer unveiled a chip that wants to significantly improve the gaming experience on mobile.
Xiaomi is set to launch its new high-end smartphone in the next few days, the Redmi K60 Ultra, but before that, the Chinese manufacturer revealed all there is to know about the performance of its devices. On the occasion of the 10th anniversary of Redmi, Xiaomi has unveiled a brand new graphics chip, which will power the powerful MediaTek Dimensity 9200+ processor.
This dedicated graphics chip, called X7, was co-developed with Pixelworks and promises to take the gaming experience on smartphones to the next level. The smartphone promises to be the most powerful in the market, reaching a score of no less than 1,774,714 points on the AnTuTu scale. In comparison, the most powerful gaming smartphone, the Redmagic 8S Pro, scored just 1,633,002 points last month.
The new X7 chip aims to improve the mobile gaming experience
The X7 chip of the Redmi K60 Ultra will support Dimensity 9200+ GPU to force games to adapt to the capabilities of the smartphone screen. 30 games will be able to display at 144Hz at launch, but the chip will use frame interpolation technology to allow another 100 games to display at 144fps, even if they aren’t natively compatible.
In other words, the chip will allow the smartphone to insert additional graphics into games, adapting their definition and reducing latency, in order to make them more fluid. Genshin Impact can even display at 144Hz at 1.5K, the definition of a smartphone screen.
This chip will not be exclusive to Xiaomi, as other manufacturers such as OnePlus are already planning to use it in their own devices.
