Following the debut of the Xiaomi Redmi 6A with Mediatek Helio A22 quad-core 12nm 64-bit processor, Taiwanese chipmaker, Mediatek has quietly listed the new SoC on its official website.
Manufactures using TSMC’s 12nm FinFET production process, the mid-range chipset packs 4x ARM cortex-A53 cores clocked up to 2.0GHz with IMG PowerVR GE-class GPU, eMMC 5.1 storage, along with the option of either high-speed LPDDR4x (up to 6GB) memory or the cost-efficient LPDDR3 (up to 4GB).
The Mediatek Helio A22 uses the company’s latest MediaTek CorePilot technology for power aware scheduling, thermal management and UX monitoring. It also has a new ultra-low power Tiny Sensor Hub, ideal for apps that require always-on sensor readings (pedometers or vocal-triggers).
