Antutu benchmarks of mystery 1.7Ghz Mediatek chip with Mali 450 GPU published

Ying HuaOctober 15, 2013

Meidatek have a number of new processors ready to take the Chinesephone industry by storm and one mysterySoC is already in testing as seen here in leaked Antutu results.

According to these Antutu screen shots this mystery Mediatek chipset is running at around 1.7Ghz and boasts an updated Mali-450 GPU. The Mali-450 is built around 4onm technology and can run at a speed of 480Mhz. Also, from the screen shots we can see the phone this processor is running in sees the chip as a quad-core unit, however sources believe it could actually be an 8-core MT6592 chipset.

So what are the Antutu scores from this mystery chip and phone? As you can see benchmarks are not bad at all with a result of 25,496 points! That is for a phone with 1GB RAM, 720p display and Android 4.2.2, but we can expect something similar for 1080 phones with 2GB RAM!

So what is this mystery chip? And what about the mysteryphone with those amazing benchmarks?

25K points in Antutu is not bad (though is only a 720p resolution), but we were promised more than 30K from MT6592 🙁

  I don’t think it’s MTK6592. Probably a different chip.

  this is a quad core

few comments:
– antutu 4 scores aren’t 1 on 1 comparable to antutu 3 scores; entirely different subcategories and weighting
– extra ram does not typically have much of a noticable effect on antutu scores; faster ram may be a different story
– mtk6592 was planned to run at 2Ghz; could still be an early prototype version

With 4 cores and 1.7 GHz, it seems to be the new Mediatek SOC based on ARM Cortex A12 cores. The Antutu score correspond to what we expect from the Cortex A12 SOCs.

Problably it’s the mtk6588, the 4 cores version of the mtk6592

Mali 450 MP ??
First chip I see with this GPU.
How much of an improvement is Mali 450 MP over PowerVR SGX544 ??

  Should be on par with the PowerVR SGX 544MP3 on the Galaxy S4 and Note 3.

    this is great…at least we can now have some gpu power..btw its not single core again is it???

hey this is the 8 core mtk6592….if you look closely at the last pic just next to CPU you will see 1664(*8) meaning…normally no. of cores…could be that antutu hasnt updated to include this chipset…..

  I agree. This is most likely the mtk6592 as we can see in the second screenshot… :-). Although I’m rather disappointed with the GPU scores… they are only slightly above the Mali400mp4 in the galaxy s3… about a 50% increase. So it is still very inferior to the GPU in modern flagships and only a slight upgrade to the GPU in the mtk6589t…
  Once again they saved money on the GPU:(
