MediaTek MT6795 chipset released: “first”, “eight-core”, “64-bit”
Recently, the Taiwanese manufacturer of "hearts" for budget smartphones and tablets officially announced the release of MediaTek MT6795 - its first 64-bit 8-core chipset. One of the main features of the model is to support displays with a resolution of 2K (2560 x 1600 pixels). That is, the chip maker once again puts a pig on the first echelon: it won't be necessary to spend money on the flagship only because of the super resolution screen.
A bit of history: Mediatek MT6577 was released at the end of June 2012, and the first HD-smartphone under the Russian brand with it appeared on board in August-September of the same year. The release of the Mediatek MT6589 took place approximately in November of the year before last, the first Russian Full HD smartphone had to wait until August 2013. It is believed, according to optimistic forecasts, that we’ll get the opportunity to get a 2k-smartphone for relatively modest money by the season of New Year purchases.

Perhaps, I’ll immediately give the key characteristics of the chipset:
Now a little more about some points. Technology Response Time Enhancement, according to MediaTek, "reduces the response time of the display and 50% reduces the blurriness of the image of a moving object, typical of 60 Hz displays, literally" reviving "everything that happens on the screen." Based on this development, the Taiwanese company, together with Japan Display, implemented support for 120 Hz displays.
Technology Super-Slow Motion was announced just the other day with the following explanation: “This technology manages several interoperable subsystems, starting, in particular, with the Sony IMX220 - a sensor with a resolution of 20.7 megapixels, intended for video shooting. Subsequently, the resulting video files with a high FPS rate are subject to an extended processing process specially developed by MediaTek. ”
As for CorePilot - if I understood correctly, the essence of the technology lies in the heterogeneous model of the processor. On this occasion, MediaTek, the general manager for international sales and marketing, said in an interview with w3bsit3-dns.com: “Of the three big.LITTLE architecture options that can be used, MediaTek preferred the processor’s heterogeneous algorithm, which turned out to be the most efficient for optimized work. Because it is he who makes it possible for the cores to work in any configuration — for example, 2 cores from one cluster and one from the other can work at the same time. Or all 4 at the same time. Or only 1 "- then it was about MediaTek MT8135 and a bunch of ARM Cortex-A15 / A7. In MediaTek MT6795 - two “quad”, ARM Cortex-A53 and Cortex-A57.
While I do not see official information about which version of the system "on board" MediaTek MT6795 will be delivered - let's hope that it will be about Android 4.4. In this regard, MediaTek MT6592, which initially offers far from the most current Android 4.2, was somewhat disappointing. Although there is good news - the other day the first at least in Russia smartphone with MediaTek MT6592, upgraded to Android 4.4 KitKat was (OMG) “jigurdafon” Highscreen Thor. The trend emerges quite good - this year is already the second time when B-brands have released updates to Android 4.4. Earlier in March, the update received teXet TM-9767 and TM-9757.

Perhaps, I’ll immediately give the key characteristics of the chipset:
- 64-bit processor, 8 computing cores with a clock frequency of 2.2 GHz (waiting for the version of "Turbo" with a frequency of 2.5 GHz?);
- dual channel LPDDR3 memory controller with a frequency of 933 MHz;
- Support for CorePilot technology (maximum performance with minimum power consumption);
- displays with a resolution of 2k (2560 x 1600 pixels);
- screens with a scan rate of 120 Hz, along with technology ClearMotion (video conversion 24-30 FPS to 120 FPS) and Response Time Enhancement;
- Super-Slow Motion - shooting video at a frequency of 480 FPS and then playing up to 1/16 of the nominal speed;
- H.265 Ultra HD video recording and playback (4K2K) hardware support, as well as H.264 and VP9 video playback;
- Supports 3GPP Rel.9 (LTE-Advanced) specification, Category 4 FDD and TDD LTE (up to 150 Mbps), as well as 2G / 3G networks;
- wireless communication - Wi-Fi 802.11ac, GLONASS, Beidou and ANT +;
- Wireless multi-mode charging based on MediaTek Universal IC Charger.
