Mediatek Helio P70 is coming soon with improved AI
MediaTek is set to launch the Helio P70, the successor to Helio P60 chipset by the end of this month. The Helio P60 was announced this February and has turned out to be quite popular among smartphone makers.
The Helio P70 will be very similar to the P60 – it will be built on the same 12nm process and will feature an octa-core processor (four A73 and four A53) plus a Mali-G72 GPU. Details like CPU clock speed or GPU core count are not known yet, but that’s not the key upgrade.

MediaTek Helio P70 will be the direct competitor to Snapdragon 710, which was unveiled recently as a mid-range processor. It’s not clear if the name change indicates a change in architecture or just core count (the APU was a dual core unit). Either way, this is MediaTek’s answer to the Snapdragon 710.
