MediaTek confirms Helio X25

MediaTek confirms Helio X25


Faster Helio X20

MediaTek has confirmed to us that Helio X25 brand is not only real, but that it is a turbo version of the X20.

Meizu is expected to be one of the first companies to use the X25 . Last year it was also the first to use MTK 6795T for its Meizu MX5 phone. In that case the T stood for Turbo . This phone was 200 MHz faster than the Helio X10 "non T" version .

In 2016 is that MediaTek decided to use the new Helio X25 name because of a commercial arrangement. MediaTek didn't mention any of the partners but confirmed that CPU and GPU will get faster. They did not mention clock speeds. Below is the diagram from the Helio X20,and  we assume that this first eXtreme performance cluster will get a frequency boost as well as the GPU.

Helio X25 will not have any architectural changes, it is just a faster version of X20 just like MTK 6795T was faster version of MTK 6795. According to company, the Helio X25 will be available in May.

This three cluster Helio X25 SoC has a real potential and should be one of the most advanced solutions on the market.The first leaked scores of the Helio X20 have showed  great potential, and X25 should have even better scores . There should be a dozen design wins with Helio X20/ X25 and most of them are yet to be announced. There should be a few announcements for the Helio X25 soon, but at least we do know that now there will be a even faster version of three cluster processor.
