MediaTek today announced the launch of its Helio G90 series chipsets with Helio G90 & G90T designed to be the core of a smartphone gaming experience.

The Helio G90 Series combines CPU and GPU cores with ultra-fast memory and AI performance. And for even more gaming power, the MediaTek Helio G90 series is paired with MediaTek's HyperEngine game technology that tunes your entire smartphone.

MediaTek's Helio G90 series octa-core chipsets use Arm Cortex-A76 and Cortex-A55's paired with the Arm Mali – G76 3EEMC4 with speeds of up to 800MHz. The combination of CPU, GPU and APU delivers up to 1TMACs performance, for peak power and smooth game play.

The G90 series brings the latest features to any smartphone. It comes with 10GB of LPDDR4x and up to 2133MHz memory. A large L3 cache and speeds of up to 2.05GHz can noticeably boost speeds in demanding games and apps.

On the premium imaging side, MediaTek Helio G90 Series supports up to 64MP single camera and multi-camera combinations. It delivers smooth real-time previews and picture quality in low-light with a night shot mode that uses quad pixel technology. Its triple-ISP design optimizes power and performance. It also incorporates fast AI facial detection and the power to accelerate AI-camera applications. Plus, its multi-camera framework supports multiple lens choices.

MediaTek's HyperEngine game technology promises to deliver "brilliant images and graphics quality, fluid character movement and uninterrupted network connections." MediaTek's HyperEngine technology includes:

• Networking Engine: Intelligent network prediction optimizes the connection between your smartphone and cellular network. If it detects the Wi-Fi signal degrading, it triggers Wi-Fi and LTE concurrency that takes just milliseconds. This exchange from one connection to the other keeps the network connection smooth and the game lag-free. Even with a crowded network, Mediatek says you'll get up to a 50% faster response than competing solutions.
• Dual Wi-Fi Connections allows a single smartphone antenna to be connected to two Wi-Fi bands (2.4GHz/5GHz) or two routers simultaneously. This ensures a reliable connection, decreases latency and reduces game jitter.
• Call & Data Concurrency so when your smartphone receives a call it won't drop the data connection. You can defer a call without leaving the game. The data connection remains live and the game server connection never drops, not even for a millisecond.
• Rapid Response Engine uses touch acceleration to improve in-game action-to-display speeds so the game world is streamed and rendered fast and fluidly.
• Precise timing control, up to the millisecond, delivers an instant action-to-display experience, faster frame rates and smoother game play so you can maneuver the game world without stutter.
• Resource Management Engine intelligently directs device resources including CPU and GPU for optimum performance and automatically delivers smooth, fluid, high-performance frame rates in games. It ensures smoother performance while benefitting power consumption for longer game play.
• Picture Quality Engine provides Support for the latest HDR10 standard with 10-bit Color Depth for vivid visuals on HDR-enabled smartphone displays for theater-like viewing. Deep picture quality enhancements bring better contrast and improved fine details.
