- MediaTek unveiled the Dimensity 9600 Pro on Tuesday, marking its first phone SoC built on TSMC's 2nm node as it escalates competition with Qualcomm.
- The company simultaneously announced the Dimensity 9600M, a 3nm chip, with both processors featuring boosted AI performance.
- TSMC manufactures both chips on its most advanced production technology; MediaTek trades as 2454.TW and TSMC as 2330.TW.
Why it matters: MediaTek's first-mover status on TSMC's 2nm node gives Android handset makers a Qualcomm alternative at the leading process generation. By launching a 2nm flagship and a 3nm sibling on the same day, MediaTek applies pressure across both premium and mid-tier segments of Qualcomm's phone SoC lineup.
